This app was promoted on our latest Earth Day. I learned about it then, and downloaded it immediately.
I’m delighted!
With a massive database of over 210,000 products, this app rates them on a scale of 1 to 10 on health, environmental and social impact.
You can search for a product or you can browse through categories such as pet products, oral care, food, household cleaners and more. I especially like seeing the ingredients listed with ratings on EACH ingredient about its safety (or not). You can even scan the barcode of a product while you are shopping.
I searched for several products that I use regularly and was surprised to see a very low rating for one in particular that I use all the time (oh my ….. a change will happen. 🙂 ).
This app has been featured in the NY Times, USA Today, TIME, Oprah, InStyle, Newsweek, TechCrunch, ABC, CBS, and more. Truly a valuable resource at your fingertips.
Good Guide is FREE in the iTunes store.
Oh – makes me want to get data for my phone! grin. How cool is that?
I like being informed. 🙂
Wow, I’ll investigate this one, Kathy. If it’s all you say, we shouldn’t be without it! 😉
I’m afraid I’m not as “responsible” as I’d like to be, so I’m hoping this will encourage me to improve. 🙂 Always so good to see you!

Decided to have a look for this for my Android, and it seems it doesn’t work in my country. Such a shame.
