To dispose of an item, users can take a picture of it and receive instructions on how to dispose of it. Then, the app will redirect them to the proper disposal bin (recycling, e-waste, regular garbage).
Users can add a new bin to the map by taking a photo. Using computer vision, the app will make sure it's an actual bin before adding it.
The app prevents users from adding bins that already exist.
In the profile screen, users can see their scan history: a list of the items they have scanned. Users can customize their profile picture, bio, and enable dark/light mode.
