Most of us have no idea what is actually touching our skin all day. "Cotton" blends hide polyester. Synthetic fibers shed microplastics with every wash. Threadwell turns the fine print on your clothing tags into clear, useful answers in seconds. Just scan a care label with your camera, or paste a product link, and Threadwell breaks down the fabric for you: what it is made of, how much is synthetic, and how it scores for your skin and the planet. WHAT YOU GET ⢠Instant fabric breakdown. See the real composition of any garment, including hidden polyester, nylon, acrylic, and other synthetics. ⢠Microplastic awareness. Quickly spot the fibers that shed microplastics so you can choose natural materials with confidence. ⢠Skin friendliness score. Every item is rated on durability, breathability, skin friendliness, and environmental impact. ⢠A simple 0 to 100 score.

See organic, recycled, and ethical certifications, plus manufacturer details when available. MADE FOR YOU Tell Threadwell about your skin and your priorities once, and every scan is personalized to you. ⢠Build a skin profile with your sensitivities, allergies, and conditions. ⢠Get tailored advisories that flag fabrics likely to irritate sensitive skin. ⢠Set the values that matter to you, from natural fibers to low environmental impact, and see how each item lines up. YOUR CLOSET, ORGANIZED ⢠Save every scan to your closet and revisit it anytime. ⢠Track your wardrobe at a glance with fiber breakdowns and scores. ⢠Keep favorites and your full scan history in one place.

Treadwell

Your treadmill said 5 miles. You actually ran 4 miles, and your watch said something else entirely. You'd never have known. A treadmill doesn't measure your speed. The display shows the number it was told to hit, from motor RPM and an assumed belt size. Belt slip, wear, and drift push your real speed off that number, and the belt slows a touch every time your foot lands. So the "6.0" you're staring at is really a guess, and your watch just copies it. Treadwell measures the belt itself. Hold your phone steady over the running belt for a few seconds. Using the camera and the LiDAR sensor on your iPhone Pro, the app watches the belt surface move and works out how fast it's actually traveling, then shows you your true pace and distance. WHAT YOU GET ⢠Quick Measure: point, hold for a few seconds, get your real speed and pace. Tell it what your treadmill is set to and it shows you exactly how far off that number is. ⢠Calibrate a treadmill: measure a few points once, and the app learns that specific machine. After that it tells you the true speed for any setting on the display, or which setting to dial in to hit a target pace. ⢠Workout mode: lock in your measured speed and let the app track your time, distance, and pace for the run, with pause, resume, and change-pace on the fly. BUILT HONEST This app would rather tell you nothing than tell you a wrong number. If it can't get a clean read (bad angle, belt out of frame, phone not steady) it says so and asks you to try again. It never invents a number to fill the gap. So when it gives you a pace, you can trust it. WHO IT'S FOR Runners who train on a treadmill and want to know what they actually ran. If you've ever finished a "tempo run" wondering whether you really hit the pace, or watched the treadmill pile up more miles than your legs felt, this is for you. REQUIREMENTS Treadwell needs the LiDAR sensor, so it requires an iPhone Pro or Pro Max (iPhone 12 Pro or later). Best results on recent Pro models. iPhone only. The camera reads your treadmill belt's logo or markings as they pass, so it needs a belt with something visible on it. Nearly every gym treadmill has one; some plain home belts don't. Measuring works best at your usual running speed. One safety note: step to the side of the belt to measure. Never stand on a moving belt to hold your phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Threadwell at 15.1 against Treadwell's 26.4. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
