Goods Unite Us is an important and well-executed app. The concept is valuable for conscious consumers, and the interface is clean, minimal, and user-friendly. It covers a wide range of brands with enough information to help make informed choices.That said, I have some feedback for improvement. It would be great to have a way to access more detailed information about the brands or the sources used for their political affiliations. While the app does a good job of summarizing, additional context could enhance transparency and depth.Also, this is a critical point: the blog only allows comments via Facebook. Many of us have left Facebook (now Meta) as part of our activism against the platform’s practices. Relying on Facebook as the sole option for contributing to conversations creates a barrier for those who share your values but refuse to use that platform. It excludes a significant part of your audience who would otherwise engage meaningfully. Offering *Politically Neutral* comment systems, like email submissions, or an in-app comment section, would be far more inclusive and aligned with the principles Goods Unite Us seems to promote.Overall, the app is a fantastic tool, but I hope the developers take these suggestions into consideration to make it even better.

I want to start by saying I find this app to be an awesome concept, but some information can be confusing. Brands will show as leaning to one political party but then you look at the top politicians recently donated to, it shows candidates from the other party. Everyone questions when the data was last updated, yet they still haven’t provided this info. Apparently inaugural donations don’t count - only campaign donations, which don’t show the full picture. Also the support/boycott feature is lacking. It doesn’t acknowledge which one you’ve selected and the tally is out of frame. I’ve changed my spending habits but can’t update my profile report. The my companies tab shows a single company I just searched for - I would assume it’s supposed to show those I support/boycott. No way to give feedback. They need to be transparent about where, when and how they get their data!Also, there’s an area to leave reviews about the business, which I thought could be a way to inform people about other types of political support they provide outside of just campaign donations, but as far as I can tell they’re submitted to a black hole.

I want to support services and companies with my beliefs and that includes stores/services that don’t support division in race, gender, etc. Living out in the vast Pacific hampered by high shipping costs makes it harder, but I’m willing to go without and pay more & shop local where I can. COSTCO is high on our list. We have local family who started in Kona but wanted to experience mainland living. They were granted that opportunity. People at our local store and the outer islands, are friendly & helpful to even the customers who give them grief! Mahalo nui COSTCO! I’ve been a member since 1990 when we didn’t even have a warehouse on this island…shipping a box of diapers for my newborn (along with a few other things), made our family “lifers!” 🙌🏽🤙🏽🫶🏾Aloha nui loa!

This is the app I needed to take a lot of leg work out of checking who owns & runs each business!! I love to use this great tool to make informed decisions about where I want to spend $$. I’ve taken a Pledge 2025 to be more mindful of consumerism & work to replace things as needed, rather than simply accumulate more. I’m standing on patronizing those business whose values & ethics align better with mine and very watchful of who they donate to with their profits. I have pledged to support smaller companies & corporations. We need to get Citizens United out of our politics by persuading business to NOT DONATE TO ANY PARTY MOVING FORWARD by simply pointing out giving $$ to one side makes the other angry. So why cut potential profits when one can enjoy making profit from everyone??
