UI/UX improvements.

User reviews

I really enjoy it

It’s nice to have a system that gives back

The scanner doesn’t work

When trying to scan the bottle it seems to be using the wrong lens and the zoom is increased, making it impossible to register the tag

Thank you for helping make us aware!

I downloaded this app at my last company's convention when they handed out reusable bottles with Fill It Forward stickers on them.
I appreciate the awareness being brought to the need and importance of clean water for all people and also all the efforts being made to reduce as much as possible the use of plastic which, as we all know, is an incredible detriment to our bodies and our environment as a whole. Thank you!

Good, when works. Otherwise terrible

If the camera doesn’t work, or it takes too long to load you’re out of luck.

Hi there! We are sorry you are having troubles scanning! If this is still an issue, please reach out to support@fillitforward.com and we can assist you.

Great concept- failed technology

This is such a great cause and concept! I love the reusable bottles, especially because they stack! Unfortunately, I’m unable to get the scanner to work. It will snap a pic and spin and come back on to snap a pic (repeat…). Please look into this as I use them all the time and would like to be helping out!🥰
