Not for Canadians

I tried to scan no less than 10 products in my bathroom, all of which are large American brands and none of them were in the database. Not sure if this is the Canada specific problem or not.

Great idea, poor execution

Skin very common product app was unable to recognize it. When I tried to add that product to the database, it failed.

Love the idea, just needs some work.

Can't wait for Australia to be listed

This is an important app ! Download today
When will Australia be listed?

Great Concept

I was very excited to hear about this app. I'm glad there's a place to search for microbeads. It needs some improvement in the product area- listing the types of plastics contained in the product; explaining what PE, PEP, etc are within the app. It's a great start! Please keep updating it

Premature

Great concept and I totally support the cause. However, I've checked nearly every product in my bathroom and am yet to find one that the app recognizes. Every item comes up as unknown. When the database is expanded, it will be useful.

Great

Helpful app, many language/region options with simple mechanism to add products! A guide for the abbreviations used would be helpful!

Ban the microbeads!

Great to see an app that raises awareness of environmental issues, the scanner worked well on 'known' products but I got an error message when trying to add a product to the database (in UK)
