RecyclePix: Photo Sharing App for iOS and Android

Greenopolis, a subsidiary of Waste Management, will soon launch a social recycling app for iOS and Android mobile devices called RecyclePix. The new app invites users to take pictures of themselves or their friends recycling wherever they are. Sharing and uploading the pics to Facebook and Twitter earns them points that can be redeemed for real rewards like discounts at Domino’s Pizza and exclusive deals at Marriott Hotels.

Greenopolis uses mobile devices and photo sharing to promote sustainable living among all ages. With a Facebook game, recycling kiosks, and now a mobile app, Greenopolis makes recycling fun and rewarding. Recyclepix’s description and app features appear below:

App Description

RecyclePix is a free social recycling photo sharing app for iOS and Android that rewards users for recycling. With this mobile app, users snap and share photos of their recycling actions anytime, anywhere to instantly earn Greenopolis Rewards Points.

RecyclePix offers additional points to users that vote on photos submitted by others throughout the Greenopolis community, create and join local recycling groups, and inspire friends to do good by sharing acts of recycling on Facebook and Twitter.

The new photo sharing application reinforces Greenopolis’ commitment to drive positive change through “Social Recycling” that makes living sustainably a fun, engaging and rewarding experience.
