Homey will remind you to put the trash out! You can do this by providing a postal code, house number (currently NL/BE only), by entering a pattern per trash type, or by defining custom dates. More information about the app and how some example flows can be found here: Trashcan Reminder 2.0 | com.trashchecker
Supported Features

Hi,
I am a happy user of the trashcan reminder app but the last weeks it doesnt work anymore…
Am I the only one with this problem?
I have restart the app en restart homey.
In settings I have data in the debug part:
You get the exclamation if the condition is not met, if there’s no garbage collected today. If you inverse the cards, I expect them to give green checkmarks.
My city is supported for all the trash except old paper.
Can I add only the days that the old paper will be collected
and that Trhashcan reminder will also collect the data from “My Afvalwijzer”?.
Same issue here, the app always returns that nothing is collected today.
I’m using the DeAfvalApp, can see the list with all collection dates for the entire year.
So the data seems fine, it’s just the data parsing that goes wrong.
Since a few months, the app does not give me any reminders anymore.
I have linked with RD4 and the app indicates I have a valid address.
In the settings info inside the app I can see pickup dates for various kinds of trash, for example today and tomorrow.
However the flow cards don’t allow me to show any sensible reminders.
As an example, I trigger every day, filter on ‘trash to collect Tomorrow / Any type’ and then post a notification. This does not delivery any results anymore.
When I chat with Homey, the device indicates the next trash is collected in 366 days , where, according to the data in the setup page of the App, today and tomorrow (e.g. 17.9.2020 and 18.9.2020) GFT and PMD is collected.
Could there be a bug or is it me? Seems like a parsing issue with the ‘year’ value.
Thanks…
I tested the app by manually adding tomorrow’s date.
When the date is added manually, the date format is YYYY-MM-DD but my automatic RD4 delivered data is DD-MM-YYYY format.
When tomorrow’s date is recorded in the debug info as “2020-09-22” then the App works.
When tomorrow’s date is recorded in the debug info as “22-09-2020” then the App does not work.
I suspect the date format is the cause of the issue.
