Ratings and reviews

The app has been extremely helpful, both in searching, and reminding me which garbage goes out each week. Lately it has been coming up with an error saying it's no longer supported. It still works, still notifies me as it should, but I'm concerned I could be missing information that will cause me to sort incorrectly and wind up with a fine. If that happens, I will not be happy, since this is the only version on the Halifax.ca website.

It's still early stages but I've found the app very helpful so far. I don't think this is a feature but if it could adopt AI features to help with garbage and recycle sorting by viewing a photo taken or just by holding the camera over the item and outlining the item as green or red so it's better sorted

I love the reminders the evening before specifying what is to be disposed of that week. I also like the guides as to what is or is not recyclable/compostable and how to dispose of the more obscure household items. Very user friendly and simple interface. It would be useful to have a breakdown with visuals of each recyclable plastic and what its corresponding number means (the one inside the triangle).
