Sure it's a free app, but only in the most loosest of terms. All the information you really would like to know about a product is completely locked away underneath a subscription fee. I particularly enjoyed noticing that they let you scan products and then when it's not found in their system they ask you to take a picture of the front and back of the product the ingredients and all that good stuff, So you can give them all kinds of free information but they're not going to give you any. 👎

This app has the potential to be great. I get needing to make money but you get a very limited amount to look at if you don't pay. There are some categories you have no access to unless you upgrade. Upgrading isn't to expensive. I just think allowing what you have for free to actually be available will still keep the customers that can't upgrade. This app seems to only think of the money. Some reviews seem a little fishy. The same day same language just different name.

I found the Think Dirty app quite disappointing. Most features are locked behind a paywall, which is frustrating. The interface is confusing and lacks clear details for many products. Overall, the design is mediocre and doesn’t offer a user-friendly experience. I wouldn't recommend this app in its current state.
