## Description

ACDS CAMP (Contact Allergen Management Program) is a database provided by the American Contact Dermatitis Society that helps patients with allergic contact dermatitis find personal care products free of ingredients triggering reactions. Each list is personalized for the patient and serves as a practical starting point for safer shopping. The CAMP app enables users to carry their own 'safe' products on their phone in an easy-to-use, sortable format.

To use CAMP, patients obtain their individualized list and user ID from a participating physician. The app accesses the CAMP database to display the patient's safe product list on the phone, which can be sorted by product type, brand, or product name. A search function helps locate items, there is a favorites feature, and users can view the specific allergens to avoid. The approach aims to simplify allergen-aware shopping while recognizing that lists are not exhaustive.

## Review summary

Overall, the app is valued for barcode scanning and its potential to help people with allergies, but it struggles with data quality, coverage, and reliability. Recurrent complaints include many products marked under review or not found, outdated or inaccurate ingredient information, and frequent scanning/navigation issues after the redesign. Updates feel slow, with limited export or print options. The result is mixed-to-negative sentiment, hinging on improvements to data maintenance and a more user-friendly interface.

### Pros

- Barcode scanning helps identify ingredients and assess product safety.
- Helps users navigate complex allergies find safer products when data is available.
- Initially helpful for allergy testing to locate safe products.

### Cons

- Data quality and coverage are poor: many items are under review, not found, or discontinued.
- Scanning reliability is poor: camera focus issues and blurry barcodes; scanner is finicky.
- Post-update UX is not user-friendly: redesign caused clutter, heavy scrolling, and poor navigation.
- Product submission and updates are slow/opaque: items linger in review for months; uploading via URL is not available; no notifications when safe lists change.
- Search and categorization issues: incorrect categories, missing common brands, no printable/exportable data.
