### 4/5 — Thumbs Up

*2021-05-26*

Useful app specially reminders and such. City’s going the right direction with regards to being environmentally conscious.

### 5/5 — Ver 2021.3.6 what happened to landscape mode on my iPad?

*2021-03-23*

This latest ver 2021.3.6 works only in portrait on my ipad. Where is the landscape?

Update
Got a reply from the developer and they acknowledge the problem.
It was kind of creepy that the developer asked me for my full address, street name, house number and city. That was totally unnecessary!

Great little app that sends you a notification when garbage and recycling needs to be put out curb side. I mean the schedule is generally consistent but it changes sometimes due to holidays and such, so this is nice to have.
