Excellent app

Notifications late

Good app, although the notifications are poorly timed. I get notified at 3 PM, on the day of my Pickup. Essentially after garbage has already been picked up. It would be nice if it happened the day before pickup day.

Broken after new update

Ever since I updated the app, it opens to a blank screen after the splash page (where the Ottawa logo is noticeably bad resolution).
Not sure what bugs you fixed… Even after uninstalling and reinstalling, it doesn’t work at all.
