About this app

Swap makes trading textbooks with other students simple, fair, and fast.

List a book by scanning its ISBN, snap a few condition photos, and set a
point value. Browse what other students at your school are offering, and
request a swap. When you meet up to exchange books, confirm the trade with
a quick in-app QR code scan — no cash needed, just points.

FEATURES
• Scan a barcode to list a book in seconds
• Browse and search listings from students at your school
• Point-based system — no real money changes hands
• In-app chat to coordinate handoffs
• QR-code confirmation when you meet to swap
• Ratings after each swap so you know who you're trading with
• Report or block another user directly from a listing or chat

SAFETY
Every swap happens through your account, so there's always a record of who
you're trading with. You can report or block anyone who makes you
uncomfortable, right from their listing or your chat with them — blocking
is mutual and immediate, and it also cancels any swap that's still in
progress with that person. In-app messages are automatically screened for
inappropriate content before they're sent.

Whether you're clearing out books you no longer need or hunting for a
cheaper way to get this semester's textbooks, Swap connects you with
students nearby who have what you're looking for — without the hassle of
posting on a bulletin board or haggling over cash.
