### 1/5 — Waste App

*2024-06-26*

The app to scan bar codes is not clear, blurry and does not scan after multiple attempts

### 5/5 — Need of the hour

*2024-01-24*

CutWaste is “the need of the hour” app. I really laude the brain behind this idea. Helps us to be environmentally conscious by helping us to cut waste, eat and buy consciously. It’s a feel good factor that you are being socially responsible. 

The digital pantry is a great tool in today’s busy life. You can look into your pantry from anywhere.. how cool is that!😎 It takes off your stress of noting down your inventory and their expiry dates. 

The notifications tell you to use items nearing expiry. You also get reminders for what you have used. You have a tailored shopping list.

I just love this app and think that everyone who shops must have it.
