Really awesome app just a few kinks
This is an awesome app but I wish you could post after leaving the area. I just found out about this app and the location I found an old car in the trees is too far away from me to post it.
Response from developer
Hello, we have added offline mode with version 3.0.1. We hope it makes it easier to report the trash location when you're without service.
What a shame!
I was so excited about this app…..until I figured out that I cannot mark a site unless I’m within a couple miles of it. Where I live there is zero cell coverage outside of town…..heck there’s barely any service IN town! WHY ON EARTH did the developers of this app put this massive limitation on it?! Huge oversight.

We hear you. Version 3.0.1 now has offline mode. You can also download more detailed maps for the areas your adventure in the most. We still have the geo fence for reporting distance but hope the offline mode reduces that friction.
Amazing
Finally a solution to this huge problem
Great idea - pointless execution
One needs to be within ONE MILE of the offending trash pile to report this.
The problem is — how many forests and other wilderness areas have cell phone coverage?
Almost none is the answer.
So I see a problem spot, mark it in the app, drive out to the nearest spot with cell coverage, and the app tells me that I’m not close enough to report it.
Do better, Gambler 500. Use your noggin when putting arbitrary fences up on this app.

Needs more details
I love this idea, but agree with the other review that gps coordinates need to be added. Also, it would be nice to be able to coordinate or message other people on here to ask additional questions or coordinate pick up.
Not able to create account
It’s not sending me a code to create an account.
Can’t create a new account
Both my husband and I have downloaded this app and are trying to create new accounts, but the app will not send either one of us the necessary 4-digit code. If we click on “resend code“ a pop up message that reads “token sent successfully” or something similar appears, but we never get a code.
We have been trying repeatedly for over a week but it never works. I have sent an email via their website to try and alert them that this is happening but I haven’t received any response.

Brilliant concept
This app, if widely deployed and used, will do so much good for our public lands. While I like the simplicity, some additional functionality would be welcomed and helpful. Latitude and longitude should be displayed in both decimal and minute formats so that coordinates can be entered into other mapping software - this would be very helpful to those of us who might want to make an adventure out of going to retrieve trash.

Stampin’ out Litter
awesome. good steps.
Meaningful!
I haven’t used it yet but I’ve got a truck and I’ll use it for this! I recommend to incorporate into the app biometric authentication when reporting trash. I think this app could be a spambots paradise if an algorithm is made to report anything that’s not trash. A phone number by itself probably isn’t enough to keep the app secure for it's genuine use.

Fight Litterbugs!!
This is a very useful app for helping fight litter! However I would like to see an option to copy/paste coordinates from SoS posts into a navigation app. ABG!
