If you prefer a more manual approach, the app also has a search function, letting you to explore brands at your convenience. With its user-friendly features, the app aims to support conscious consumerism and ethical decision-making in every shopping experience

It is crucial to clarify that our stance is not rooted in animosity towards any particular group, including specific communities. This application does not serve as an expression of hatred towards anyone. Similar to how the imposition of sanctions or boycotts on certain governments does not imply hatred for the entire population, our disagreement lies with specific policies.

Our primary objective is the pursuit of peace and equality for all citizens, regardless of their religious affiliations. This application serves as a manifestation of our opposition to certain policies, and we aim to exercise our freedom to make conscientious choices with our financial support until a state of peace is attained in the relevant regions. It is important to note that the existence of this app is contingent upon the achievement of peace; should peace prevail, the need for this application would cease to exist.
