Blocked by a monthly paywall

Another potential good app that wants you to subscribe to another service. No single purchase or ad driven option.

Helpful but misleading

The app itself is a great idea and I had high hopes. However, the more you explore, the more you find the important information hidden behind paywalls. Not only that but the information is sometimes conflicting. For example, they give Fairphone an A, but then give Google Gemini an F even though Fairphone has Gemini built into it. The lack of free information makes this app appear biased and skewed, even giving the feeling that they are just being paid to give some companies a high rating.

Great app but useless unless you pay the subscription

I think this is a really cool idea and we need more apps like this to expose major companies and make information more readily available. Contrary to the nature and implied intention of the app, the information is in fact not available at all unless you want to pay a subscription. In today’s economy, the average person is not going to be able to do that. If the creators of this application want it to go anywhere, they should at least give the basic information for free with superficial features added on for a price. I understand that the developers also need to make money for the time they spend, but overall it is unfortunate and I was disappointed.

Thought it was interesting, but ended up uninstalling

It’s a little tone deaf and ironic to charge a monthly subscriptions just to unlock essential features. Not to mention the scoring system is heavily screwed and makes no sense.

Super helpful

Has no idea how unethical some companies I used were. I use it every day now

Paywall

This app is very good. And I understand that the people who made this also need to eat. But by charging a paywall for transparency is to adhere to the very constructs they wish to destroy. This is a tricky situation: one must charge for their work so that it is appreciated in a way that is useful to oneself, but that entire concept is capitalist, and this app aims to pierce the veil of capitalism.

Other than that. This app is perfect

.

it’s great, but the subscription costs ALOT.

Questionable

Contains blind propaganda and improper ratings for the respective "human impact" and "transparency" for many companies

Thank you

Thank you for doing the research

Love this!!

Great to use, can’t wait to see what’s coming next!!

legit

this is great and helps u be an activist with ur wallet also all the info is legit

This is amazing, little differences.

I’m just noticing that i have been feeling better about choosing brand i KNOW are good. I trade stocks a little and have been raving about this to all my buddies. If i had to say one thing i don’t like, it might be the lack of companies but more are added everyday and it’s SUPER easy to request them.

Love the mission

This is the best tool around for spending ethically. People have the power!

This app has so much potential

It’s important for us as individual humans to recognise that while our own footprints are small, they scale up, they replicate and converge into severe impacts. Conscious tells you how to fight back, how to mitigate your impact and every download pushes our vision of a better world forward.

Gabe has done something incredibly special with this app, and it would be an insult to our humanity to not support it.

Good bones

While their basic system is a great idea, subscribing for features isn’t going to stick and it’ll lessen their environmental impact. They need to change their business model and generate profit some other way.

Recommendation:

Generate profit from allowing ads from companies rated B or higher

Great app to use for 1 minute

This app is a pretty good app to use for companies to see what they are doing. Until you get 90% of its features blocked by a 5$ paywall after reviewing 2 or 3 companies

Legitimate source

Your go to app for the truth on a brand so you don’t have to go down the click bait rabbit-hole.

Our money is our power

How we spend our money is powerful. If I spend my money buying a product, I want to know that I am supporting companies who value people and keep humanity and its dignified preservation at the fore of their mission. I use conscious spend to help me do that.

Useful info all in one place

I’ve already canceled one subscription! Looking forward to seeing more companies rated. 👏🏼
