Ditch the plastic. Track your impact. Join the reuse movement. USEFULL is your campus’ 100% plastic-free reusable takeout program. Instead of single-use containers, you’ll borrow durable stainless steel ones—just like checking out a library book. It’s fast, free (as long as you return on time), and better for the planet and your health (no dangerous microplastics). Download the app to start checking out containers at participating locations. Here’s how it works: 1. Request a reusable container from dining staff for your takeout meal. 2. Use the USEFULL app to check it out; simply scan the QR code on the base of the container. 3. When you’re done, return the container by scanning it back in at a return station. Key app features: - Use the QR code scanner to check out containers - Get due date reminders - Track your personal environmental impact - Reference community rules for your reusables - Find checkout and return stations near you - Manage late fees and payment options - Access 24/7 customer support USEFULL is completely free as long as containers are returned on time. Our tracking technology makes reuse easy and enables a 99% return rate. That means our high-quality containers can be used again and again, without generating waste.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: USEFULL at 79% against Nutrislice's 27%. USEFULL also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). Nutrislice's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (701 vs 52). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Nutrislice holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nutrislice has 701 ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Nutrislice's written reviews are positive against 79% of USEFULL's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Nutrislice ships an update every 2 months, USEFULL monthly. Both last shipped on October 7, 2026.
