Go Plogging is an APP that records the number of picking up trash, location, distance and the time spent during the activity. “Plogging” is the combination of “Picking up Litter” and “Jogging”, which is an activity beneficial to both health and environment. To catch up with the trend, we issue up an APP that can cooperate with the activity. We can operate with ease and clear GUI. Besides from recording location, distance and time as other jogging APP, we can also register and submit the number of litters in each category and connect with the plogger all around the world. Afterwards, we can share the achievement with others through the social network to encourage them to join the event.
