Tot Recall is an independent app made by Bazaar Supply and Digital Inc. It compares the products you save with recalls published by the Government of Canada (Health Canada, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Transport Canada), the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Every result links to the original notice.

Independent app

Tot Recall is an independent app made by Bazaar Supply and Digital Inc. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Government of Canada, Health Canada, Transport Canada or any U.S. government agency. It uses public government recall data.

Where recall information comes from

We compare the products you save with recalls published by these sources, about every 6 hours.

Source What we use Language
Government of Canada, Recalls and Safety Alerts (Health Canada consumer products and drugs, Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Transport Canada child car seats): open data feed and notice pages, https://recalls-rappels.canada.ca Notice titles, hazard and remedy text, identifiers (barcodes, model numbers, DIN), dates, links English and French, as published; never machine-translated
U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), https://www.saferproducts.gov Consumer product recalls English only
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (openFDA), https://open.fda.gov Food and drug enforcement reports, limited to infant and children's products English only

A recall from a U.S. source says it applies in the U.S.; the product sold in Canada may differ. Every recall card links to the original notice. If anything in the app differs from the original notice, follow the original notice.

Attribution

Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada. U.S. recall information comes from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (openFDA). Use of this information does not imply endorsement by these agencies.

Some product information comes from Open Food Facts (openfoodfacts.org), available under the Open Database License; Open Food Facts product images, if shown, are under CC BY-SA. Some barcode information may come from UPCitemdb.

What we add

Where a summary is shown, it is labelled "Summary by Tot Recall". For Transport Canada car seat recalls we build a short title from the notice's make, model and years. We never change the government's instructions on what to do.

Photos

Photos on recall cards are loaded from the source's servers, not copied by us. You can turn this off in Settings. Photos remain the property of their sources and are shown here for information, with a link to the original notice.

No logos

We do not use government logos, crests, maple leaves or government colours.
