Ratings and Reviews
可搜尋附近的回收筒,很有用
期待有更多新功能如搜尋最近的衣物和玻璃回收點
回收記錄有點不切實際,不過小朋友應該會覺得好有參與感。
Information not updated
There are longer recycling bins in MTR stations for a year already, but the app keeps showing outdated information.

Worth for referral
I was usually confused where could I find a recycling bin when I wanted to drop some plastic or something else on hand. This App perfectly solves my problem, and I think its artwork is rather pretty compared with many other Apps of Gov.
I am still seeking the interesting functions inside the App, and I will refer it to my friends too. Nice App!
