Recent reviews

Good app. Does what it has to do without overwhelming me with information. It's Database should be updated more frequently, though, as there were certain items I was unsure of and had no visual representation to compare them with. Aside from that, it's a great app.

Edited 2024: Still a great app. The ability to change addresses quickly is so useful especially if I'm trying to help out someone figure out when their garbage day is. A decent app, always notifys me the day before when collection is.
