Recycle Mate

Recycle Mate is an incredibly useful tool for anyone looking to recycle correctly and reduce waste. I love how easy it is to use—just snap a photo or search for an item, and the app tells you exactly how to recycle it based on your location. No more guesswork or wish-cycling! Recycling is the one thing we can all do every day to make a difference, and this app makes it so much easier to do it right. The information is clear and reliable, and it’s great to see a tool that helps make sustainable choices more accessible. Highly recommend this app for anyone who wants to recycle smarter and make a real impact!

I really like the concept of this app in that you use the camera and to identify recyclables and non-recyclable materials. The main reason I downloaded this app was to use the barcode scanning function but it still yet hasn’t yet been implemented. I understand development of such a thing takes time but when will it be implemented?

It’s a good app but needs further development. For example I scanned a tuna can and it came up with “do not put in kerb side bins” and then you hit the additional information button that says it can be recycled if cleaned properly. I think it would be better if it first said “yes it can be recycled” and then the additional information tells you what and how it needs to be recycled. Because at this rate the app says nothing can be put in your kerb side bins. Just some clarity and making it easier to understand would be great.
