Buycott
Buycott allows shoppers to scan barcodes of food products, such as a tub of hummus, to see if they were produced in Israel or have any links with companies that support the occupation. The scanning process takes just a few seconds and provides information about the company, such as its location and its website. Buycott also provides a list of companies in Palestine and Israel that support human rights! It's available for both Android and the iPhone.
