As a parent, it’s hard to stay on top of so many things in our daily lives but one important thing to be aware of are products recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The new free Recalls Plus app for iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad helps provides information about products you buy at your fingertips in order to keep your family safe.
After downloading the free app, you can see the latest recall news from the CPSC in the Home stream. Scan the running list to get an overview of all recalled items or tap on a listing to view it in more detail.
Recall details include brand, category, manufacturer, the retailer, the period during which recalled items were sold, hazard, and any reported incidents.
I also like that users can create a personalized watch list to ensure that items they’ve purchased haven’t been recalled. The Add Stuff to Watch List screen is easy to use and not only lets products be added, but also any food allergies.
This easy to use and free app provides a wealth of information for busy parents who make their family’s safety a priority.
Recalls Plus can be downloaded for free from the iTunes store.
This post was written as part of a compensated campaign with SheSpeakshowever, I would have gladly shared this app because not only is it a helpful resource, but it just so happens that a family friend worked on the development of the app. All opinions are my own.
