What is a litter picking app?
A litter picking app is a digital tool that helps you document and organise cleanups: record what you collected, add photos, pin the location, join challenges, coordinate with volunteers and track your impact over time. If you collect trash regularly, or lead others to do so, it saves you time, increases visibility and helps you measure results clearly.
