Box Scout is a Chrome add-on developed by Excelling Apps. It is a free tool that helps users ensure all items they receive from Amazon are packaged with Amazon packaging. With the increasing number of products being shipped without proper packaging, Box Scout comes in handy for those who want to make sure every product is packaged by Amazon.

When browsing Amazon product pages, Box Scout displays a symbol indicating how the item is packaged. This allows users to easily identify whether the product will be packaged by Amazon or not. This information is crucial for those who want their items to be protected during shipping.

One of the key features of Box Scout is its ability to remind users of items that are not packaged by Amazon. At checkout, Box Scout shows a notification indicating how many items in the cart are not packaged in Amazon packaging. This ensures that users don't forget to add Amazon packaging to their items, providing an added layer of protection.

In addition to identifying items that are not packaged by Amazon, Box Scout also shows how many items cannot be shipped in Amazon packaging and how many items are shipped directly from a retailer. This information helps users make informed decisions about their purchases and ensures that they are aware of the packaging options available for each item.

Overall, Box Scout is a useful tool for Amazon shoppers who want to ensure that their items are properly packaged. It provides valuable information about packaging options and helps users make informed decisions during the checkout process.
