You found a dark patch on the bathroom ceiling and cannot tell whether to scrub it or call someone. Moldless gives you a starting point in a few taps. Take a photo or pick one from your gallery. The app looks at the colors and texture of the image on your phone and shows a rough estimate of the possible mold type, with a Low, Medium or High risk label. It is an estimate from color, not a lab result, and it can be wrong. HOW A CHECK GOES 1. Take a photo or choose one from your gallery 2. Confirm the image and tap Analyze 3. Read the result, then open the removal guide FEATURES AT A GLANCE - Five common household types: black, green or blue, white, pink and yellow - A removal guide for each type with ordered steps, a supply list and safety warnings - A call-a-professional notice on the types where cleaning it yourself is not recommended - Safety wording you can act on: ventilate first, wear gloves and a mask, dilute bleach 1:10, and never mix bleach with ammonia, vinegar or other cleaners - A History tab that keeps past scans on your phone. Long-press one to delete it, or clear them all - Reads in English, Korean, Japanese or Simplified Chinese, whichever your phone is set to WHEN THE PHOTO LOOKS CLEAN If no typical mold pattern is found, the app says so and adds that this is not a guarantee. A musty smell or lasting dampness still counts as possible mold. THE AD, AND YOUR PHOTOS Moldless is free. It shows one small banner at the bottom of the History tab and nowhere else, so the scan, result and guide screens stay clear. Where the law requires it, for example in the EEA, a consent form asks about ads before one loads. On iPhone the system tracking prompt appears only if that choice allows it, and the app works fully whichever way you answer. Your photos and scans are analyzed and stored on your phone and are never uploaded. The only network traffic the app causes comes from the ad and its consent form. LIMITS OF THE ESTIMATE Moldless is for reference. It does not diagnose anything, does not name a species with certainty and does not replace medical or professional remediation advice. Severe or widespread mold calls for a licensed professional, and see a doctor if symptoms persist after cleanup. Questions or feedback: contact+moldless@peppertree.so
