Great idea!

I own Corrado Cutlery an historic Chicago area brick and mortar and think this is a great idea. Hats off to you guys. I just signed so we will see how it goes.

Crash

Fix the app soon. Crashes after being open for 30 seconds

I hope

To the developers:

Needs to search the descriptions since the name of a business does always contain the right keyword.

This app has tons of potential, don't give up on it, make it great.

Great Idea - But

The concept of local people recommending local owner owned businesses that they like is great. The app really fails to provide anything useful and figuring out how to work it or add to it is painful.

Skip this version.

Very disappointed

Love the idea, love and have recommended the 3/50 project, but the app just plain doesn't work right. I've opened the app 3 times, waited for it to load each time, and then watched it crash - only once giving me a too-quick look at a list first.

Great Concept, Not good App

The idea and premise behind the 3/50 project is good. Surprised that it is called look local, not 3/50 project like its creator. The part that is surprising is how slow the app runs. This is not because of the phone or network, it is an app issue. If you can straighten out the slowness issues this might be a good app. Taking more than five minutes to search for a local company is not cool.

Great idea

This is exactly the kind of thing this country needs more of. A great way to help people support their local economy and community. Look forward to seeing the listings grow!

Nice try, but stick to public speaking...

I'm sorry - I'm a HUGE fan of the 3/50 project and Cinda Baxter. But, I have ti say that I'm getting tired of sub-standard apps brought to market by people/companies/personalities that should stick to what they are good at…

I'll come hear Cinda speak anytime, and I'll keep my 3/50 sticker in the window, but - well, this app leaves a lot to be desired. Very few businesses in our area, poor navigation, etc…

I'm glad the app is free, but I seriously can't understand how/why any business would pay to advertise in it??? Even with the huge push on Facebook a month ago - there are only 13 reviews or downloads?

I know Cinda doesn't like anybody to say anything bad about anything ever, but… Well, these are just my two cents...

This app. is AWESOME! Very nice, easy to navigate layout! Can't wait to put it to great use next time I'm out and about! Excited to easily be able to find the "little guys" wherever I might be! Thank you for creating this app, I'll be sharing it with all my friends!

Great resource!

I LOVE the app, and your entire program (I'm a customer and fan of buying local, not a brick & mortar myself).

Looking forward to more listings as they come (and I'm sure they will, many of my favorite local spots have 3/50 signs prominently displayed). I will definitely use this both at home, and when traveling to a new city..... I'd much rather seek out the local flavor for shopping or eating options. Thanks for this!
