About ACCC Recalls Australia
Get the latest on Australian product recalls! The Recalls Australia app will help you stay on top of the latest recall information, especially when you’re on the move. The app enables you to search the national recalls database by product name or category. It also includes a function to report an unsafe product, including a photograph (if relevant) to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).
Developed by the ACCC, the app draws on information contained on the Recalls Australia website (www.recalls.gov.au).
IMPORTANT: Please note that the app can take a while to download and open the first time you use it, as it downloads the recalls database to your device. You may prefer to do this when connected to a wireless network rather than via your 3G connection. Once you’ve opened the app the first time, it only downloads details of new recalls (thus saving you bandwidth) and so opens immediately.

"See attached VIN table" for car related recalls. But the attached VIN table is nowhere to be found.

Before I found this app I didn't know Homebrand Honeypops and sliced black olives had been recalled due to containing glass. GLASS! Font size is fine for me, even without my glasses..

Great app, useful information, love the ability to have this info in your pocket. One negative; the font is way too small to read (SGN3). Please fix.

Needs UPC/EAN barcode scanner to check products against recalls. App not optimised for large dpi screens like Galaxy S4.

Font is way too small to read on S4. Either make the font bigger or allow it to be enlarged somehow.

Tried using on Samsung Galaxy S3 & S4 and the font size is sooo small it's unreadable. It's way smaller than shown in the example pics. Please adjust font size.

On my S2 it was fine, but on my Galaxy S4 the text is tiny, so I don't really use this app any more.

Can't read the information on S3 unless using binoculars. Font is ridiculously small, no option to change font size Uninstalled due to lack of usability on phone.

Searching is limited, the description for one item says "see attached spreadsheet", the button labels are hidden, & it doesn't use Android design standards

Found this just browsing and found it to be really informative and is updated regularly. Only thing I can pick is not having the share function
