Being a new vegan can be difficult. Is takeout even a thing? What can I eat on a road trip that's quick and easy? Where can I eat in the middle of the south? These are all legitimate questions. Luckily, some very smart people also realized this, and decided to help us out via your handy dandy app store.
1. Is It Vegan?
Even once you have the hang of being vegan and don't need the app, still download it on your parent's, partner's, or friend's phones. This app is super handy when food shopping or picking out surprise chocolates for your vegan friends! Just scan the bar code of an item and the app analyzes each ingredient and let's you know what, if any, ingredients are not vegan.
2. Bunny Free.
This app is adorable and animal friendly! It lets you know what companies do or don't test on animals, so you never have to potentially sacrifice your principles for makeup or clothes.
3. Vegetarious.
Ever been in a strange city and not felt like reading through 600 Yelp reviews to find out if there's even one vegan option on a menu? Well, now you don't have to! This app will tell you based on your location, all the vegan/vegetarian options surrounding you.
4. Animal-Free.
This app provides a large database of all animal based ingredients, so next time there's a weird word on a pack of gum, you'll know what it is and how it may affect your vegan lifestyle.
5. Roaming Hunger.
Do you live in a big city? Well, this app shows you in real time where virtually more than 800 food trucks are, making it much easier to track down a veg-friendly one.
6. 21-Day Vegan Kickstart.
An easy way to transition into veganism and improve your health. This app helps plan plant-based, delicious meals for every day of the week while also providing encouragement to keep on track.
7. Food Truth.
This gives nutritional information about 100 plus ingredients, and provides three recipes to use with the foods. Afraid because you don't know how to cook? No problem! Food Truth ranges in levels from "cinch" to "simple" to "sensational".
8. Good Guide.
Another great app that helps us navigate the intense cleaning and makeup isles! Good Guide helps find environmentally friendly and animal-free products for the spring cleaning vegan.
9. Vegan Xpress.
If you're on the road and in need of a meal in chain restaurant central, fear no more! This app tells you what is and is not vegan at national chain restaurants and fast food places.
Don't see the type you're looking for? There are even more apps out there if you look. Vegan apps have become a thing, and they're amazing. Whether you're a new vegan or old, you have to check these out!
