Used to be a worthwhile app, but they changed the format and then it just wasn't worth the effort. I still recycle the same as ever, just don't bother scanning anymore. With the missions, they don't recognise frequently scanned items in the plastic, metal and cardboard categories, so completing the missions becomes impossible. Don't waste your energy!

Thanks for your feedback and we’re sorry to hear you’re disappointed. We’re working hard to improve our package data to make completing missions and using the app easier, based on feedback like yours. We hope you’ll give it another try, and if not, thank you for still sorting your waste! Every sorted package makes a difference. / Bower Team

I really liked the idea and that is what drew me to the app early on. Rewards have become more difficult to achieve for some time and since the update, losing all outstanding coins (and not having them transfer into the new system - even by way of XP) combined with the very low return on what is offered per scan has made it very difficult to make me want to continue to give Bower my recycling data. It's now not worth the extra time it takes to recycle to scan items. Sorry Bower. I'm now out.

Thank you for your feedback! We understand how frustrating the changes may feel, especially losing your points. Old points weren’t directly converted to Coins, but your XP was used to set your new starting level. The update aims to create a more balanced system, and we’re sorry it’s affected your experience. We hope you’ll give it another chance.

Like many others, loved this and had hundreds of coins I was saving up. I enjoyed watched the coins build up every time I scanned. Since the update, all motivation has gone. No longer worth the effort to scan before recycling. Might have felt differently if they'd not removed all my coins in the update, but they did. I'm no longer motivated to share my recycling data with them.

Thank you for sharing, and we're sorry to hear this. We understand it feels disappointing to have points removed, and this was a tough but necessary decision for us to be able to complete the change and make the app better for the future. We hope that the new reward system will still motivate you to use the app!
