This app is “woke” LOL
first off Republicans don’t even know the meaning of the word “woke” means LOL Since when do Trumpers want Organic food?! LOL I thought that was a “liberal thing”. I do love the LGBTQ+ option. If stupid Trumpers pay for this app I hope this app takes all their money.
Scam!
This app is secretly woke. You can add LGBTQ. They are just deep state spies taking your data!! Don’t fall for it

Doesn’t work
I can’t even get the app to open
Keeps crashing at startup
I downloaded this app. I even paid the subscription fee and after I did, it crashes every time I try to open it.
How ridiculous is that!?
I uninstalled and reinstalled and it still does it.
I’m so disgusted. They got my money and I got the shaft.

I had high hopes
Once the app was loaded and setup with vendor selection and ‘Free’ setting, the app will not open at all!!
Worthless info stealer
Bad app, don’t get it
Don’t like you are forced to register
Make an option not to register….haven’t used the app and need to verify and make an account🙃. If I like the app I might. Will probably delete it since I see no reason for an account just to scan an item and see what it written about it.
Swing & a miss
Such a great concept with woeful execution. Didn’t even get pass the set up process to see how good the brand ratings were.
Can’t even create an account
Totally useless. Cant even create an account. Enter a valid email and phone number as requested and it just says email is not associated with an existing account - but there is no other way to create and account. Basic stuff - pure junk
Worthless
About 75% of the products I scanned are not listed. Plus I really want to know why a product or company was in the woke or liberal category.
Fail
I don’t understand why it needs both phone number and email address for a useless account. I’ve scanned dozens of grocery items and only got feedback on maybe four different products.
No to giving out my phone & Email
This app is a great idea and something I wouldn’t mind paying for. But I’m definitely not giving out my personal info especially on something like this that’ll identify me as having certain beliefs. I’m not accusing the app builders of anything nefarious but if the government wants to compile a database of citizens and their wrong think this will do all the work for them and if the government wants that list they’ll just simply take it. So thanks for what y’all are doing but it’s a huge NO THANKS for me. I hope this isn’t some type of honeypot by the very trustworthy and honest intelligence agencies are using to gain a list of their next political targets once all the J6ers are freed and “convictions” are overturned.
First time review - it was so bad
This app straight sucked. Clunky UI, help screen took me to some Latin or other unknown to me language page. The accuracy of the data is very suspect. I put "America First" and "Conservative" and it labeled H-E-B, who promotes drag shows for kids, as "Great", and Walmart, who is arguable pretty conservative, as "poor".
Just no
Your whole selling point is values aligned but you want to charge for that info. Otherwise, it’s a poorly designed shopping list
Over woke
Stay away
App
Doesn’t seem to work at all. Who has over 5 “moments” for no results. Good idea. Bad app
Disappointed
I tried several times to get past the page to pick liberal conservative America first etc.. It would not let me do anything after about 10 or 12 tries I decided that it wasn’t the app for me because I couldn’t get past the one page.
Not working
It’s stuck on drag and drop your values. I can’t move to the next page and actually use the app.
Public Square is Better
public square is way better of an app and endorsed by trump!
What does my email and PHONE # have to do with shopping
Ok i get the email. But this is a SHOPPING app. Why can’t I use it anonymously? You gona call me to check my shopping experience? Go ask a stranger for their phone number and see how that works out. Could use a burner email and I would do that. Im still a real person if i use a burner. I just want my privacy protected. Especially if I’m rating products based along political lines. And you wonder why your growth is bush league. I can’t even see what I’m getting myself into.
Doesn’t work
I’ve tried now five times including closing out the app and starting over and it will not register me. Fails to send verification text to me.
Phone number and email
Requires a phone number and email before signing up? Hard pass
Maybe try not to sell your users info and lie about the app being free to use next time

I really want to use this
I haven’t been able to successfully set up an account…. I can’t even get out of the App Store correctly. I have tried and tried, I got it downloaded and then it wouldn’t verify my account after 9 tries over 3 weeks. That’s too bad, this is exactly what I need for American based shopping.
Nope!
They want you to enter your email & phone number? Why would a legit company want you to do that if this is just to check “ratings” on products? Then they want $.99 a month? This is nothing more than a scam!!
If you don’t pay and give your personal data you cannot use this
I am bummed the developers went this route. I don’t want to give my data up to be sold to marketers or main stream GOP RINO PACs. I certainly don’t want to pay a monthly fee for the privilege of having my data sold. Make it free and charge for extras and do not sell the data, who knows who they will sell it to for the right price.
Tried to get started on this app, didn’t work
I downloaded and gave them my info, then I got stuck on the page that asks me to drag and drop to input my values. The screen froze, and didn’t allow me to select my values. I’m just gonna delete this app, it’s garbage. I regret giving them my personal information.
Very funny
This is insanely dumb
Question
Why do I have to enter my email address and phone number in order to use the app?
No thank you
You can’t use this app unless you create a profile including your email and phone number, no thanks.
Signup process doesn’t work
Get your signup process to work and MAYBE I’ll try the app again. 🤦🏻♂️
Too much data collected
This company seems to be just another data miner. They claim to help avoid woke companies but they do not need my phone number to do that.
Picking a pack
I attempted to pick a pack. It wouldn’t let me I tried over and over again I even deleted and reinstalled the app. Worthless to me because it’s not allowing me to Choose a pack I tried, but I’m out.
Not worth the effort right now
The idea is solid. Who wouldn’t want an app to help them decide which companies get their money? But I’m not going to sign up for an app that collects data and wants me to subscribe. Someone else will come along and actually fill this niche right.
Would not work
Tried to open an account, which is necessary to use the app. Either it sent me a code but wouldn’t open the screen to enter it, or it would go to the code enter screen and not send a code. I don’t need that kind of frustration in my life. DELETED
Never received code & couldn’t open app
Tried twice and received nothing in my email and no code texted to me. Can’t use the app without this so you might want to fix that lol
Needs more work
Can’t get the activation code.
Can’t contact support for help.

Hidden COST to see ratings
The app makes you enter your email and phone number along with other personal information to set up an account before letting you know that seeing the scores and ratings for a product is an additional cost.
Verbs
The app dosnt work. You never receive verification number in mail nor sms. No response from customer support. Is a great idea for and app. Wish it actually worked.
Help
Where can I get help? I downloaded the app and put my information in but can't get past activate. I got a code for each time I tried to activate. Where do I go from here?? Then I can give you a better rating
Issues signing up
Could not even sign in to the app.
Verbs doesn’t work
I downloaded their app just a few minutes ago filled out all information requested. After filling out all information requested first time kicked out or dropped never got confirming txt(both email and phone number works I use them everyday). Tried two more times same thing. Deleted app. Went to their website to resolve the problem was not able to. Got noticed that I have to reload page not once but twice then turned phone off and started over same thing. What’s up with that?
Unable to activate app.
I thought I would try this app but after many tries was unable to activate it.
Iphone8+
I put in my account info, supposed to get a activation code, tried multiple times, no code. tried app support, failed to send. maybe it’ll work for you guys. i’m gonna try again later before I delete it.
Could not even activate
Tried 3 times to activate my account with no response or code from the app. It just takes me back to the signup page each time. Buggy
Activate
Once App is installed the user is required to sign up for an account. Once that information is entered the App Times out and an account can not be created nor activated.
Great idea, no way to try it
So I heard it was a good app to highlight how a company invests the money you are giving them by buying their product. Sounded interesting. However, you can't even access the app without giving a valid mobile number AND valid email. No way. No app needs both unless they are also selling my info on the side. Maybe if they change their policies, I'll re-download and actually be able to give it a try, but with no free trial and no ability to even see what the app has without signing away all your info, forget it.
This app REQUIRES your real phone number.

Can’t process fast enough
Downloaded, signed up for premium $0.99/mo, scanned a product in my fridge, waited for over a minute for a report…nothing.
I’m already 5 more items into my shopping list. I cannot wait for this app.
Useless.
