About this app

Capture is a free-to-use CO2 tracker that helps you learn more about emissions from everyday mobility and dietary choices.

You'll be able to automatically track transportation emissions thanks to our GPS-based algorithm that will help you keep track of journey modes and estimated journey times on-the-go! Whether you’re taking a car, bus, plane, or bicycle, Capture can use GPS information (with your permission) to predict CO2 emissions & provide you insights into your Carbon footprint from travel.

Capture's here to help you towards a sustainable lifestyle, whether through carbon-conscious travel & food choices, learning more about climate change via our weekly-updated learning section, or optional verified offsets. We are available to use in over 100 countries - download Capture and start tracking, reducing and removing CO2 emissions today!

As a start-up, we're always on the lookout for additional features and improvements. Please do let us know your thoughts and ideas via our review section, and a member of the team will come back to you!

Using Capture is easy. If you're interested in calculating your carbon emissions from travel & food choices in real time, here’s how it works:

- Download and create an account by answering a few questions about your lifestyle, helping you set a monthly target based on a 7.6% reduction (that's the amount we all need to decrease emissions between now and 2030 to keep a 1.5 degree warming target!)
- Switch on GPS tracking (we wipe all GPS points every 24 hours and never share your data without explicit permission)
- Review live CO2 emission information whenever you want, and see the breakdown from your different mobility choices
- Choose your favourite CO2 offsetting project (verified by GoldStandard or the American Carbon Registry)
- CO2 offset-as-you-go at the end of each month. You’ll get a monthly receipt by email.

... Capture can work for you in any part of the world, however the accuracy of carbon emissions calculation may vary a little depending on where you are using the app.

Great tool with immediate feedback and easy to set up. If I only had a wish, it would be for a smarter tracking... using a mix of bus and rail, I often need to go back and adjust. Or a more low-tech option: a filter on the activity list would be useful too. I find myself scrolling through many "walks" before finding what I need to correct. All in all the best I found so far! Keep up with the good work!

A great concept and a good start - I personally feel that some more options are required for more advanced users to refine the assumptions made, and it would be great to be able to add things other than transport and diet - e.g. 'I purchased this item of clothing today, add that to the list', but, as I say, a good starting point. Clearly designed and no issues with it running.

Thanks for your feedback. In the upcoming version, you'll be able to choose the size of car as well as the fuel source. The emissions model will be improved taking a variety of factors into account before estimating emissions from each journey. We're also continuously exploring ways to track other emission categories like shopping and home energy.

Just installed the app and i have a couple of comments: - it would be nice to see the baseline questionnaire results all the time instead of just the first time. For example, I put the wrong value on one parameter and i don't know how it changed the baseline - it would be nice to record the type of food of previous days and not only of the current day, as people might forget and then the tracker won't be accurate Anyway, overall, i like the app and i gave 4 stars because of the potential :)
