CareScan turns the confusing symbols on your clothing care labels into clear, plain-language washing instructions — completely offline, with no account and no internet. Just tap the laundry symbols you see on the tag and CareScan tells you exactly how to wash, dry, iron, and bleach the garment — in one simple sentence. • Decode every ISO 3758 / GINETEX care symbol (washing, bleaching, drying, ironing, professional cleaning) • "Wash together?" — pick several garments and instantly see the one safe setting for the whole load, plus a warning for anything that must be washed separately • Save your clothes to an on-device wardrobe so you never check the same tag twice • 100% offline — no sign-up, no tracking, no data ever leaves your phone • Works anywhere: care symbols are an international standard Stop guessing. Stop shrinking your favourite sweater. Wash everything with confidence.
