Consumers Are Increasingly Using Smart Consumer Mobile App to View Product Details, According to Report

The Smart Consumer mobile app introduced by GS1 India enables consumers to digitally access product information on their smartphones and allow consumers to directly connect with brand owners.

The app receives its feed of product data from DataKart. A product’s information is displayed every time its barcode is scanned using the app to authenticate label information on consumer products. In case the barcode fails to scan, users can enter the GTIN number of the product written near the barcode to easily access the information.

Reports of the Smart Consumer mobile app show over 12,000 products have been scanned by consumers across India to view or get product details.

While consumers successfully viewed product details of brands that have uploaded their product information to DataKart, those that have not, are missing out on the opportunity to directly promote their products to consumers. Through this app, consumers can also share product feedback directly to the manufacturer and get more product information.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to maximise your product’s visibility and grow your business by using this app. Upload and publish your product information to DataKart and be visible on the Smart Consumer mobile app today.
