i want to love it
the fact that every time i try to sign in on the app becomes a chore (i go to favorite an item, im prompted to log in, the app browser window pops up and logs me in, and im logged in on the app browser but if i close that out or exit the app it does not stay logged in the ACTUAL app interface for the life of me) makes me a lot less likely or encouraged to use it, but i like the concept.

Great Idea not working currently
I tried it on Amazon through safari and everything was going great easy to set up. But when I searched for example water bottles on Amazon And click the UI for goodbuy the results were things like pillows, bug spray and a couple water bottles didn’t match my search results. I replicated this with a lot of searches.

You’ll use this app
Goodbuy helps us to support causes we believe in by being more conscious of where we spend our money.
I really like how goodbuy is built in as an extension, rather than the kinds of apps that only let you scan a bar code or type in the sku numbers.
I’ll definitely share this with my friends and family since they share the shop small / local sentiment.

Disappointed
I downloaded this app and I was really excited to use it but I keep encountering the same issue over and over of getting a message that says I need to enable a Safari extension.
Love this concept!
So great to be able to have all the products I typically search for in one place! Two ideas I have so for: - embedded browser with an option to open in the phones default browser; - a search option for clean ingredient products (example, clothing that’s 100% organic hemp, body products that are pure organic ingredients, snacks that have clean ingredients, etc) I also noticed on a company I no longer wanted to see, when I hit the button to do so, the reasons “why” I wanted to hide the company greatly overlap one another. I have also noticed if I have sustainable and American made selected, I do get products that are made in China and not sustainable mixed in with ones that are. For those of us who struggle finding products that are clean, sustainable, fair trade, made in America, and woman or black woman owned (these are actually how long my Google searches get ha!) it’s always been a struggle to hit all those points so I am very excited about this app and sharing with my friends! Thank you!

Ok I guess
Like, it’s not BAD-BAD but I could easily just google “sustainable swim brands” and get them all in one place. As soon as I find something from a mega retailer that they have an alternative suggestion for I’m pretty disappointed. For example, I found some cutesweat-shorts on H&M and the alternatives were mens athletic shorts from a rugby brand, swim shorts, or ugly sweatshirts. Also, it seems that the only requirement for them to advertise a small business is that it is a small business. One of the alternatives they advertised (on Instagram no less!) for some knock off versace platform heels is obviously a drop-shipping site. A super sketchy one at that (can’t return in store? Alarmingly cheap??). How is that any better than Amazon? Just because Jeff Bezos isn’t involved?

Why activation only in Safari?
I cannot activate this app. It opens for me in chrome, my default browser. When I try to copy the URL to Safari, it does not activate the app. I guess the only way for me to use this on my iPhone is the old-fashioned way, through the browser of my choice. It’s ridiculous that you require me to use a computer to get what I need out of your service!

Please improve
Can someone please make this app better? I don’t want it to take me to an actual website when I click on something, I already have way too many tabs open on my phone. Take me to a screen in the app. Also I don’t want to always search for things. I want more ideas forced upon me of what to consider shopping for. My opening page was random and short. Just make it easier for me to choose something.

SUCH a wonderful resource!
I absolutely love this organization and the ideals they support and stand for! I always want to support small businesses but it’s so hard to find options sometimes - until now! Highly recommend this app and the web browser add-on!
I LOVE GOODBUY
I love Goodbuy and everything they stand for! The company is full of great people working to make a difference. I love knowing my money is going towards small businesses that are making a difference.
SO Easy!!
All I have to say is having the Goodbuy app on my phone makes it so easy to shop true to my values. I also LOVE shopping the storefront on the app because they highlight some cute goods. Small businesses need all the love!!
Love, love, love
Goodbuy makes it so easy to shop consciously for myself AND for others with their app!! Loved the browser extension, but this app makes it even easier to find small business goodies of all kinds.
So happy this exists!!!
For the longest time, I felt very limited and often cornered into shopping at mega-retailers like Amazon because “that’s how it is.” That feels real bad, which is why I’m so happy this app exists! It feels so much more gratifying to shop from small business and support real people and families and communities rather than give more money to giant corporations. I cannot recommend this app enough!👏

Goodbuy Will Change Your Life!
Goodbuy is single-handedly curing my Amazon addiction!
Goodbye Amazon hello goodbuy!
Life changing in all the right ways. I hate shopping on Amazon but that’s all I have time for with 3 crazy kids and two full time working parents- not anymore! Conscious and value based shopping made so easy! Thank you!

Love supporting small business and now it’s easy
Easily Support Small
I love how easy this tool makes it to shop small. I would much rather my money go to a small business that aligns with my values.
Simple and great
I love this app and browser extension. It really helps me seem more aware and thoughtful than I actually am. I don’t have time or energy to search out products and gifts that are sourced ethically- and now this does it for me! It’s amazing. All my friends are impressed by me.
Amazing
Been trying to find a way to support
Small businesses. This makes it so easy. Love it
