This is Green iPhone App
This Is Green just lanched its new iPhone app that could help make your life a lot more green. The app provides a variety of tips that could help save on your energy bill and live a more healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
ThisisGreen focuses in on providing you with basic green tips that can help you make you home more green. This tool was developed by two green professionals who worked together over the past 2 years to development this interactive and helpful application.
Map Feature
This tool allows you to go into any room of a house and provides tips on how to make this room more eco-friendly. A user friendly map is provided that easily zooms in and out to navigate through various parts of a typical home including our bedrooms, office and even our garage. Tips range from recycling ideas to water saving techniques all the way to environmentally friendly office supplies.
Categories
I have mentioned that research should be done before purchasing products to make sure that they are truly as green as they say. This app can allow you to bring all that research to the store with you. All this information is broken up into six categories that can make it easier to find what you need. Whether it involves saving energy or water tor the right building materials, the category feature can provide help.
Check Lists
The check lists feature has to be my favorite part of this part of this application. I always find ingredients and chemicals on products I am buying that I have no idea what they actually are and whether they are dangerous for us or the environment. This is especially import for beauty products, toys for our kids and electronics. Just as with the categories feature, this can allow you to take all this information to the store.
There even is a provided forum in which it makes it easy to receive and provide information with other uses.
Overall, This is Green seems like a great application to get if you own an iPhone. It only costs $.99 to help make it easy to get started with a more green lifestyle.
If you already have the This is Green iPhone app, please share your thoughts.

This is pretty cool! I hadn’t heard about it until I saw your blog. I will definitely consider checking it out because it seems like you practically have your own Green consultant advising you on little tips to go green! That’s really great!
Will you be making a similar app that works for Android/the Google phone?
I have a friend who has the app and she is constantly telling me to download it. I’ll give it a try for $0.99
Ooh I will have to check that out.. for that little money even if it helps you green up even a little bit it’s worth it! Thank You for the info
