Amazing community

Love this app. Super easy to use and it feels so good to swap things with neighbors! Way easier and more fun than a trip to Goodwill!

Thank you!

The best app I have on my phone, no contest!

Excellent tool!

This is my go to app to find all things and to re-home gently loved items. Constantly updated to make the user experience better, and meet great people too!

Best Buy Nothing App Ever

Great design and easy to use! This app is a game changer

The best way to give and get!

Like Buy Nothing on Facebook, but better! Porch Swing has enabled me to give items I don’t need and get items I do need with an ease of use that is unparalleled. I can de-clutter my own home and pick up a like-new fleece for my daughter from a new-to-me neighbor’s porch in the same day! The already easy to navigate and use user interface is constantly updated to make the process of giving, getting and creating community easier. Porch Swing is an invaluable tool and I’m incredibly grateful for it!
