Description

Check if a company is cruelty-free! Bunny Free lets you search for companies by name and tells you whether or not they test on animals. Browse all companies in the database, find cruelty free brands by product type, and share company testing results in version 2.0.

You can also scan a product barcode to look up the company's animal testing policies.

Bunny Free uses data from the cruelty-free shopping guide published by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The information is updated on a regular basis.

So much potential to change the world, but not quite there. The bardcode scanner is badly implemented and an addition of "alternatives to" would be great. It just didnt work for me. It needs to be implemented like the other barcode scanners out there. Imagine you are out shopping and scan a can of deodorant, people would much rather be given a choice of the "next best deodorant" that doesnt test in animals. Scanning all deodorants can easily take up your whole day right? It could be made into a community driven system, with thumbs up and down on each product suggestion to make it more accurate.

Good App but some questions... So this app is great! I have been vegetarian all my life and only just discovered this app. However there are many companies in the UK I buy from that are not there. Also, when I try to type in the barcode, sometimes it says 'barcode has to be between 11-13 numbers' (or something like that). Why is this? It even happens with some brands that are in the US. Is PETA a US company? Last thing; how do you work the scanner? Do you have to press a button or does it automatically scan it. Thanks!

Good app some kinks!! Great if products are well know and mainly produced in america but english big brands don't fair so good. Most english based brands arn't recognisable even when i type them in search. Even typing in the manufactures dosn't help. Would love if they could expand their product knowledge

I Love It. Its so easy to use right in the store aisles. This app cuts out the endless researching done to buy cruelty free. Plus there are no horrible pictures to remind me of why it should be illegal. We know why

So far I'm disappointed, I looked up my favorite lipstick brand, Rimmel, no result. That's a pretty well known brand, why is it missing? I can't trust this app, it claims Organix test on animals but organics claims they do not and never have directly or indirectly. I don't have time to look up all the other companies that are wrong. It's easier just to Google each company when I am in a store.

Not 100% accurate I use this app but also double check with google. I find that sometimes brands are listed as testing on animals when they've actually become cruelty free. Also there's been a couple popular brands that I've found aren't even listed on the app.

Hi Debbie, sorry you're disappointed with the app. The app uses data from PETA, so I would follow up with them on any questions regarding specific companies. There is also a section in the "About" tab as well as on PETA's site explaining how they get the data and why some companies don't appear on the list. Hope this helps!

Disappointed. Giving it two stars because, I like the concept of the app. But, each time I scan something it says the app is being forced to close. Was really hoping it was gonna work!

Discovered this App via the Buav website from email. This App is essential if you love animals and don't want any items tested on them. It's cruel and unnecessary. Keep up the good work and spread the word. I'm sharing this App on social media!

Morgan Merriman October 29, 2016

Alot of the parent companies do test on animals..for example, if Kose owns 93% of tarte and is known to test on animals I would definitely NOT consider tarte cruelty free at that point. To each their own interpretation, but deleting this app because it is inaccurate in my opinion.

Linda Sokol February 1, 2016

Fab app Most of the products ive been using are tested on animals. I came home today and binned everything thats tested on animals and checked it against google aswell. Rimmel are one of the worst. Theres alot that arent tested on animals which ill be using from now on. Being an animal lover has put things into perspective now

Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc March 29, 2016

Should have figured... Just read a 1 star review and rebuttal that answered all my questions. Uninstalling and will try another app that is actually up-to-date, with no excuses.

Brooke S August 19, 2015

Its ok but... When I type something that I want it keeps on saying 0 results it gets me mad because now how am I going to use I am thinking about just deleting the app

Tiffany Blanche January 16, 2016

Bunny Free I am unable to search for other products to see if it's cruelty free and it keeps saying '0 results'. I should be able to find them even if it's cruelty free or not. Also the scanner sucks.

Kimberly August 16, 2015

Love the service/hate the search function The search function is very sensitive in that you have to type in the exact name of the company rather than pulling up all related names.

Jennifer Grant September 21, 2015

Odd results When I scanned the bar code of a product it came up cruelty free but under a completely different company name? Is it possible that these companies are falsifying the bar codes??

Kirsty April 8, 2016

So disappointed Feel deflated I thought this app would be great for when I'm out and about but every time I try to use it I get 0 results from big companies to the small ones I am aware that u use data from PETA and even when I try to use companies that are on the list I still get 0 results with regret I am uninstalling

Celia Cote October 10, 2015

Great app Has been very helpful. I like that there are different ways to find both products that do or don't test on animals. I have tried other apps previously, but this one has been the best! Thanks for making this app.

Cathy Avilez October 15, 2015

Animal lover It is such a awesome app!! IF UT US NOT THERE PUSH THE BRANDS THAT DO TEST AND IT IS IN ABC ORDER SO SCROLL TILL U FING RIMMIL IS A ANIMAL TESTED PRODUCT

Jesika Keener August 28, 2015

Disappointed Everything I try to look up doesn't come up. I've tried the bar code option, as well as typing company names.

July 17, 2016

Has potential As someone who would use this app frequently I am about to give it up because they don't have companies like Hawaiian tropic or another big brand, I am forgetting.Most things in large department stores like target should be on here. Well the smaller brands are great for me I was dissapointed how much time I spent to understand the barcode scanner and the lack of organization (add an alternatives tab?)

Radhini Govender May 5, 2016

Great idea, but it doesn't work The barcode scanner doesn't work and when I've searched for products by entering the barcode numbers it can never find the product.

Jessica Abrams May 15, 2016

Useless, deleting it. Poor functionality.

Lauren D Martin June 12, 2017

The scanner barely works and when it does it says it doesn't have the info. It also freezes up my phone.

Kassy Maynard November 23, 2015

Cruelty free shopper I use this before I buy any product to make sure it's crueltyfree. If it's not it goes right back on the shelf!

Courtney Johnson October 5, 2015

Force closes when I try to browse Super bummed because I had high hopes for this app

Rachel Cowley April 29, 2017

My only issue is some products aren't on there. Is this only USA products?

Jossie Ayame December 18, 2015

Very nice app but lots of the makeup brands we have in South Africa are not on the app

Yesenia Ortega December 9, 2016

Great and Easy! I appreciate this app! Although, it does cover a wide range of companies, I just wish it would expand more. But it does include major companies

Cassandra Young December 9, 2016

Couldn't find the company's on the app, but they are listed on the Peta website. Would be better if you could access all of them on the app.

J Tart November 29, 2015

Love! Love! Love! This app has been wonderful in helping me stay cruelty free with the things I purchase!

Rebecca Holistic Therapist January 23, 2017

This is a great concept but I can't find any product's information to match up.... Good luck on the update! Best wishes!

Jenny Sporre September 1, 2015

memi lia April 1, 2016

Deena Davda October 4, 2016

Quick and easy to use Very helpful

Christina Black November 24, 2015

Exactly what I was searching for.

April 20, 2017

Very nice

Kim G April 10, 2015

Needs a few tweeks...but I like it I love this app, I would have given it 5 stars but most times the scanner doesn't find information about the product and then if you type in the product name it will come up... The scanner should do the same. Also alot of companies are not recognized either... I hope this improves, because it's really important to me to spend my money on cruelty free products.
