About this app

What if there was a way you could be rewarded for being more active and help local community groups at the same time?

Now you can with Civic Dollars.

You can earn Civic Dollars by just spending time in a park (designated earn zone) and then you can get rewards for yourself or you can donate your Civic Dollars to a local community group or charity who can pool them together and get access to unique rewards from local businesses.

To start earning Civic Dollars just:
Download the app and register,
Visit a Park or Open Space (designated earn zone)
Start earning Civic Dollars
Select a reward for yourself
Choose a community group or charity and donate to them

You can also report problems like anti-social behaviour and litter by using the (!) button while in a park.

We will be updating our social media accounts with details of any new parks that have been added to the platform.

Parks will be assigned different earn values so make sure to check the app for your nearest parks and how many Civic Dollars you can earn while there.
Each park will have a real time symbol indicating how busy the parks are and will help you with social distancing (Red, Amber, Green).

The app will only be using your GPS while inside a participating park and will only start when a user clicks the green “GO” button. If you forget to stop your visit your session will automatically stop when you walk out of the park.

Disappointing so far. Told me I had failed at logging in, but was confirmed in, all within the same message. I was in the park and it said I wasn't... Then it lost the timing of my walk a quarter of the way around. So I started again. I assumed by hitting finish that it would save my time in the park. It hasn't. I assumed maybe it was a bit slow, so it would add the time later on . 6 hours later it hasn't. Did I do something wrong? No idea as the app has no user guide. Needs more testing.

Scott, just to let you know the app was only on trial for one week in June 2019 which is why it didn't work when you tried it. It is live again in Belfast as part of Phase 2 of the Amazing Spaces project and will work until the end of the summer

Interface is fine but it doesn't work for what it's meant to do. I spent 4 hours in a local park where I normally get good signal. It seemed to have trouble connecting for a long time. Finally connected but it doesn't run in the background. So if the app closes, you lose any time you've wracked up, even when it's over 30 mins. I started all over again, left the app open and minimised the window. That seemed to work but then when I checked in after an hour it had frozen. So 4 hours = 0 dollars.

Great idea, poor execution. This is a great idea but unfortunately I will be deleting the app. It isnt very clear how dollars are earned. There is a green and black circle that fill as you spend time in parks but it is never stated what they mean. The app is a bit buggy. The "list by" and "filter" options in the spend section don't work properly. The is also not very many ways to spend your civic dollars around Buncrana. I hope that the app is further developed as it has great potential.
