App is great, it doesn't really explain what you can turn your points in for or if you can at all. Other that it's real easy to use and you can enter your own recycling bin whichakes it simple to drop off. Makes recycling fun even my grandchildren like doing it👍

Very good. It's nice getting a small reward for something I already do. If that reward is money for myself or charity, well, I'm in.

30-8-24. Easy to scan items. It has a well laid out interface and a great motivation to recycle. UPDATE 2-2-25. Since the update, I hate the gamification they have introduced. Confusing, and there's no motivation to continue using it anymore.

Like many others I feel let down by the new system in place. I don't want 'XP points' or to pretend I'm playing a game. The app was much better and fairer how it was, and now there's less incentive to use it, no matter how you try to spin it that it's improved. Wiping coins from accounts is a poor show too. You could have at least transferred people's existing points across when you gave less than a month's notice of the changes.

Been using the app for more than a year, and it was worth the effort of scanning every single package. But, as everyone else, with the last update, I've lost all my collected points. Now, most items I scan don't worth anything because the brands "are not on Bower yet" and if I want to earn points, I should contact these brands and convince them to join. What? XP system is just annoying. I bought shares in the company but now regret it. If it was a move to appease investors, it's a bad one.
