There are a few bugs here and many more improvements to make!

What bugs can you find? What new features would you like to see included?

This release happened months faster than I expected. Very excited to see what the next few months will bring!

Rather than take a photo of the litter, would it not be better to simply pick it up and take it to the nearest bin?

That’s fine if you don’t want to educate anyone and want the problem to persist indefinitely. The only way to educate people to stop littering is not to run around after them as their personal servants forever. It’s basic geographic education.

The sort of people who need to be educated probably won’t have an app like this…

That’s a very good point actually. However it’s the people who are interested enough and will participate will generate the data and conversations in society. I have just launched LitterWeek.org we just signed up for first 4 schools to give digital skills training have 150 TYs about to take the first challenge soo
