I'm curious to see if this will catch on with larger supermarket chains in the future. I hope it does!

Any plans to add more language support for international users?

Yes, we've just completed Spanish and French translations, which will be available in our next release. More polyglots wanted!

Just out of curiosity, how big is the userbase currently, and do you see potential for growth?

Numbers have been climbing steadily! We hit 5k users in the first month, and that was even before the official release. I can't wait to see where this goes!

Always remembering reusable bags is a game changer. And don't forget cloth produce and bulk bags as well!

You can also try using a zero-waste subscription box if that's more convenient.

Would you ever consider an API for aspiring developers to create their own app integrations?

Or perhaps partnering with other eco-focused app developers to expand your capabilities?
