No Thanks app 4+

The app is great for ease of use, but before the app I was using the website disoccupy. tonight I was trying the app at my grocery store and it okayed four brands that disoccupy has called for boycotts of based on the companies involvement with the Israeli government. If this app were to collaborate with the information that disoccupy has cultivated you could get the apps database up to speed more quickly and help get the message out faster on what brands to avoid. Also provide great alternative suggestions for certain brands.

This app has great merit, I love the idea, I just wish there was a section for suggestions to alternative brands and links to buy those instead. I feel stumped knowing what I CANT buy, and not knowing what I CAN. I do a lot of online shopping due to having no car and living far from any grocery stores, so I typically get things delivered. There’s no barcodes on those things online, so it’s hard to only know I couldn’t buy it AFTER the fact when I’ve purchased the items and possess them already. I think this app would do wonders with a suggestions tab with alternatives to buy.

I love the app and how much easier it makes the process of boycott, as it not only allows you to scan a product’s barcode easily and detect if it’s boycotted, but also gives you direct proof of how and why this product is in the boycott list(by providing an article or blog)! This is a great initiative and I salute whoever made this invention, as it has the potential to ease and help people boycott more effectively and efficiently! Hopefully the app developer keeps adding more and more boycotted products overtime!
