Using the App is very simple, and the recording of waste is done in just 3 steps.
From the initial screen, select the ORIGIN* (or generating cause) of the waste you wish to record.
*This choice is either about the reason why food waste might be generated either if it concerns recyclable waste. Food waste is mainly generated during the preparation of meals or from unconsumed food (surplus production), but also from spoiled/expired food or food residues on plates. In the basic version of the App you will only have to choose between general food waste or recyclable waste.
In the next screen, choose the TYPE of waste you want to record (e.g. mixed food waste, fruits/vegetables, meat/fish, and for recyclable materials glass, plastic, cartons).
Finally, identify the PLACE where waste is generated (e.g. Dry food stores, Main kitchen, A la carte restaurant) and the weighing screen will immediately appear.
Once you place the waste on the proposed Bluetooth® scale the weight reading will automatically appear on the screen, so just click on the "Record Measurement" button.
Using the App with any other scale is also very easy. Simply, type the weight reading on your scale in the relevant field and then click on the "Record measurement" button.
All measurements are now stored securely on a cloud server and can be exported to an excel file at any time and used accordingly.
