### 5/5 — Great for beginners

*2022-07-23*

I got this app to help me switch to eco friendly and ways to help the earth and environment it really helped me out a lot and guided me I really recommend this if ur looking for a good eco friendly/zero waste app to help you❤️

### 5/5 — Motivates me and Helps the world

*2022-07-22*

Title says it all

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-07-13, version 1.6.2*

Great

### 5/5 — Honest to a Tee

*2022-07-11*

This app truly makes me happy, from tips to planting trees it makes me excited to help. They provide links to sites to buy any necessary eco friendly products or tell you how to make them on your own. I’ll be moving out soon so I’ll try to do as much as I can for my own. I don’t think I can do everything it says, like switching banks. It sounds so appealing but I’m still getting assistance from my parents so its hard to switch. But I hope to make a difference no matter how small.

### 5/5 — Best app to help reduce carbon footprint

Really great suggestions to reduce my carbon footprint in Australia backed by science.

### 5/5 — Such a good app

*2022-05-28, version 1.5.6*

Easy to use, easy to choose actions that work for you, and a great way to visually see the difference we are making as individuals and as a collective

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-05-09, version 1.5.5*

Great idea and execution. Truly helpful.

### 5/5 — Great Insight

*2022-04-19, version 1.5.4*

If you’ve ever wanted great advice on how to soften your carbon footprint this is the app.

### 5/5 — Great couching

*2022-04-13, version 1.5.4*

Great couching to tackle personal C02 emissions

### 5/5 — Practical and easy

*2022-04-10, version 1.5.4*

If you’re feeling helpless and lost about taking action on Climate change, One Small Step gives you clear, actionable steps you can take to reduce your footprint. Great design too!

### 5/5 — Best personal carbon accounting to see how your action translates into emissions reductions!

*2022-04-01, version 1.5.3*

Highly recommended

### 5/5 — Great checklists

*2022-03-14, version 1.4.10*

The only problem is the trees you buy through this app are planted overseas and not in Australia.  Also we live in FNQ alternative energy providers don’t exist up here we only have Ergon or going fully off grid.  We need graphene batteries.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thankyou

### 5/5 — Jules Got

### 2/5 — Not encouraging or practical

*2022-07-29*

I was excited to download this app to find more ways to reduce my carbon footprint. I already do many things like compost, shop second hand, mostly walk vs drive, and eat vegan (I also live somewhere where I can’t control electric/gas/etc.). Slightly discouraged when my score for my carbon footprint was very high compared to other users, despite all the things I do to be eco-friendly, but I was eager for suggestions to lower this score. But I deleted the app when the first suggestion it made was to unplug my TV after every use. While I’m sure they’re correct that my TV does use unnecessary energy, it’s an extremely impractical suggestion, and I don’t think my plugged in TV is going to save the world compared to the huge corporations that should be held accountable. Not encouraging or practical at all. Maybe good for someone who needs more basic tips (compositing, how to shop second hand, eating plant based)?

### 2/5 — Nothing new!!

*2022-05-19, version 1.5.6*

While it’s asks a whole bunch of questions to start, then all the suggestions so far I already do, so looking forward to some new ideas I hope they come soon

### 4/5 — Great idea but…

*2022-10-26*

I love this but it is hard for me because I live in an apartment and I can’t really ride my bike safely so I must rely on my car to get me places so things like that I can’t really change. I’m also switching to a keto diet which isn’t an option when you are creating an account.

### 4/5 — It’s great!

*2022-09-02*

This is very helpful to learn how to decrease your negative impact on the environment,The only issue is I can’t seem to adjust my original quiz outcome as my life changes.

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2022-07-03*

Can’t think of many apps that help show you what to do in order to reduce your impact on the environment.

I wish there was an iPad or Mac app, but oh well.

### 5/5 — bussing app!!

*2025-04-15, version 1.6.20*

yippee i love this app

motivated me to become vegetarian

### 5/5 — Every day every one of us can make a difference

*2023-01-25, version 1.6.16*

One Small Step is fun and useful. Helps you, your family whatever that looks like and your community gradually systematically sustainedly cut your own carbon emissions footprint. 
And if millions of us follow its informed guidance and science, the figures will give us hope.

### 5/5 — Easy, intuitive and Aussie made

*2022-12-17, version 1.6.15*

An intuitive app to reduce your carbon footprint. It’s totally tailored for Australia which makes it easier to act than other apps I’ve used. I also like the step by step guide to gain proper knowledge beforehand as well

### 5/5 — Great carbon footprint reduction app

*2022-11-24*

Much easier and more digestible "small steps"

### 5/5 — Great, easy, helpful steps

*2022-09-17, version 1.6.9*

I’m loving working through my action plan. Each step feels easy to enact.

### 5/5 — Must have!

*2022-08-22*

Helped me to find somewhere to start! The Climate crisis can be overwhelming especially if you feel stuck in a cycle of wanting to do your part but not taking the first step (app developers came up with the perfect name). Very manageable steps and explanations provided for everything! I’ve only had this app 1 day and I have learned so much!
