Get the right parts on the list
Search for a material or type its description. Review the size, specification, quantity and unit so the branch knows what you need.
A clear list makes it easier to spot a wrong fitting or a missing item.
Built for tradesmen & contractors
A wrong part, an unexpected pack price or a wasted drive can eat into the job. Build your material list, compare prices your suppliers give you, and call the branch before you turn the key.

If a price is missing or expired, we tell you to check it with the branch. Prices you add are labelled as yours. We never fill a gap with an invented price or stock claim.
How it helps on a real supply run
Keep the parts, supplier replies and branch details in one place. Check the purchase before committing to the trip.
Search for a material or type its description. Review the size, specification, quantity and unit so the branch knows what you need.
A clear list makes it easier to spot a wrong fitting or a missing item.
Add prices from supplier calls or documents. Compare the same material list with whole packs and known pickup fees included, with tax treatment visible.
Missing prices or fees stay unknown. Travel costs are shown separately.
Open the branch number from your material list. Ask about the exact parts, available quantity and pickup price before leaving the job site.
A nearby branch is a place to check. It is not proof of stock.
Send a known branch location to Apple Maps or a supported map app. Keep the supplier you checked and the destination you open together.
In-app distance, fuel and time figures are planning estimates.
Why get it?
A pack size or pickup fee can change what you pay. Material Scanner keeps those details beside the list instead of leaving you to piece them together across calls, notes and map apps.
Example — whole-pack maths
You need 12 pieces. The supplier sells packs of 10 at $18 a pack.
Packs you must buy
2 packs
Materials price
$36
That is 20 pieces, with 8 left over. It is not a $21.60 purchase. The app counts full packs when you enter the supplier’s pack size and pack price.
For demonstration only. This is not a supplier offer; tax, pickup fees and travel are excluded from this example.
Know what you are getting
Try it with a real list and prices you are allowed to use. Tell us whether it helps you make the next supply run.
Your saved prices are private to your account. The app has not checked them with the supplier. The catalogue and branch directory have limited coverage; check the details before using them.
The app’s mileage and travel times are estimates. It does not predict road traffic or promise that a branch can fulfil your list.
For people who buy the materials
