## What is SimplyScan?

Is your shampoo hiding sulfates? Does "fragrance-free" really mean fragrance-free? SimplyScan reads the ingredient list for you and shows you, in seconds, what you're really putting on your skin and hair.

HOW IT WORKS
• Snap a photo of the ingredient list on any shampoo, soap, lotion or cosmetic with SimplyScan
• The app analyses every ingredient and checks against published safety research.
• Get a 0–100 safety score and a clear letter grade, A to F.

WHAT THE APP CHECKS
Parabens, sulfates, phthalates, formaldehyde releasers, undisclosed fragrance, chemical UV filters, PFAS and more.

ONLY GOT THE FRONT OF THE PACK?
If your photo shows the front instead of the ingredient list, SimplyScan can look the product up and show you its full ingredient list.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS
Search any ingredient to see what it is and whether it's a concern, and learn how to read a label.

HONEST BY DESIGN
A product with no readable ingredient list gets "not enough information" — never a good score. Blurry photo? SimplyScan asks you to rescan instead of guessing. Health concerns, irritants and preference notes are labelled differently, so a silicone preference never masquerades as a health risk.

YOUR SCAN HISTORY
Every product you check is saved with its photo, score and grade.
