Consmr launches new iPhone app and first Consmr Study - PR Newswire

/PRNewswire/ -- Today Consmr (www.consmr.com [1] ) has announced the launch of Consmr for iPhone, a free iOS app that lets users call upon over 100,000 ratings of consumer packaged-goods to make smarter decisions at the supermarket and drugstore. They have also completed a study of the top 100 best products in America.

Founded by Ryan Charles, Consmr features reviews from thousands of avid shoppers and experts including Women's Health magazine and supermarket guru Phil Lempert. The app uses the iPhone's camera to instantly access Consmr's database of reviews from real people focusing on health, beauty, baby and grocery products.

The app also alerts you if a product has been recalled, and lets you search based on specific categories such as gluten-free and sensitive skin.

"With so many options in the supermarket, it's easy to buy the wrong product or a disappointing one. Our app is a quick and easy way to make the right choice," said Ryan Charles, CEO of Consmr. "We're happy to make the lives of shoppers everywhere a little bit easier."

Consmr's Study also revealed America's favorite consumer products based on over 100,000 ratings. Nutella was the most popular and natural home products company Method received highest aggregate rating for their "Wood For Good" surface cleaner and the 8th highest for their Sea Mineral Gel Hand Wash. Furthermore, Americans clearly cared about their skin â€" six of the top 25 highest-rated products were skin care products, with an assortment of mouth care, diet & fitness, personal care and household goods making up the rest.
