Throughout our lives, we accumulate tons of objects that have finished their function for us, but it may be difficult for us to get rid of them. The culture of excessive consumption leads to always wanting to renew ourselves with new items.
With SWAPP, the best way to recycle these items is to exchange them with others.
In today's consumer culture, we buy a lot of stuff. Many people accumulate more and more objects in their homes that they no longer need or use.
These items can take up valuable space, make it difficult to find the things we actually need, and even create feelings of clutter and stress. Additionally, the constant need to buy new things to replace old or broken items can put a strain on our finances.
SWAPP is a marketplace that allows people to trade objects they are no longer interested in and exchange them for other desired items.
The users create an account by providing personal information such as their email address and password. This information is used to identify and authenticate users as well as personalize their experience.
The thought behind it was to make it user-friendly and secure, to encourage users to complete the process and start using the app.
Now the users can select the interests that suit them best and filter out the rest. Filters are used to refine and narrow down the results displayed, making it easier for users to find what they are looking for.
The main page is structured in such a way that all the search options are open, allowing you to scroll through the main categories. In addition, there's a search bar for finding specific items.
From your profile page you will be able to see all your items, who has received exchange requests and what matches you have with other people.
An easy and simple form that contains the important details of each item: pick-up location, available hours, item condition and pick-up methods
An expanding card that contains more information about the viewed item, and in case you are interested, you can contact the owner of the item to make the exchange.
This feature notifies when you have a match with another user. The pop-up is designed to be attention-grabbing to quickly catch the user's eye and inform them of the match.
The last step is coordinating the exchange through a private chat in the application. In order to ensure the user's privacy, the chat is deleted at the end of the exchange.
