Keep track of all of the piles of products, gadgets and gear for your kids, while making sure they stay safe.  Sometimes it’s hard to take stock of what we bring in – in fact, just recently it was discovered by ABC news, that the oft-used Bumbo baby chair was recalled by CPSC 5 years ago, but the same product was allowed to be sold on the market with only a few more warning labels.  Since then, many children have suffered by the hands of this flawed product. Evidently, it’s more important than ever to take personal stock of your belongings to ensure your child’s safety.  Luckily, a just-launched app for iPhone and iPod touch, Recalls Plus, enables busy parents with young children to proactively protect their children from dangerous products, allowing them to quickly take action to prevent a potential threat. 

Features of the Recalls Plus App include:

• Proactively delivers timely recall alerts for the items on your Personal Watch List (a personalized list of the brands and products that you wish to monitor)
• Hand curates every product and food recall directly from government agencies (CPSC, NHTSA, FDA, USDA) for relevance to children and consolidates them in one place
• Provides parents a simple, easy-to-use solution to track recall information and instantly share it with family and friends

No longer must your readers wait until they stumble upon product recall information pushed out through mass media. Instead, they’re granted access to the latest recall news in the palm of their hand. 

Recalls Plus was designed and developed by parents with young children for other parents. Because sorting through the large volume of typical recalls, many with low personal relevance, can be overwhelming, this app gives parents peace of mind that they aren’t missing recalls of any of their children’s products. The Recalls Plus App is available for free from the App Store on iPhone and iPod touch or at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/recalls-plus/id499200328.
