Vegan apps for your iPhone

I thought I made a list of useful iPhone apps that can make your life so much easier when out shopping or looking for restaurants to eat cruelty free. I use Apple so the links I provide are to the iTune store; I am pretty sure most (if not all of these apps) are available for Android too. But first a useful web directory of all things vegan.

  • Online vegan shops (Europe and USA): the site is a directory of all things vegan, the link refears specifically to online food shops but you’ll find a comprehensive directory of art, music, blogs, animal rights organizations, animal sanctuaries and a chatroom to connect with other vegans around the world. Very useful: I found some online vegan shops that I didn’t know yet.
  • Iphone applications to help you make the right choice when you are out shopping:
    • Vegman: a work in progress database of vegan and vegetarian restaurant around the world. It uses geodata location so you always know what restaurants are closest. Very useful when travelling. Free app.

    •  Animal-Free: a list of animal derived ingredients. Helpful when shopping and you’re not too sure if that weird ingredient is ok or not. Free app.

    • Cruelty Free: the Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics (CCIC) helps you to identify cruelty free brands. It doesn’t specify if the brand is vegan though. Free app.

    • iVegan: spot those non vegan ingredients in food or cosmetics. It also provides a list of vegan friendly companies. Probably the most comprehensive database available (I find if useful for those E evils).  iVegan is also linked to a very useful website listing vegan and non vegan ingredients in food and a database of companies that test or do not test.
