Precisely for this reason, they have created the application Nokia Phone Recycler as a educational game to explain and raise awareness about recyclingAnd, according to Nokia, 100% of the components of its terminals can be reused
Actually, this application is intended for the team and vendors of the company itself Nokia And the fact is that the idea is to train your employees in this aspect However, it is a useful and curious tool to know the recycling process and several more keys about the useful life of a terminal. All this through a simple application, with four main sections, and that is helped by a simple game to educate and raise awareness, unlocking more information of interest with each right step.

The negative point of this application is that it has no reusable value in itself That is to say, it is really curious and has interesting information, but once played and read does not offer any new or different experience Only the possibility to reread said information or show it to a friend or family member. And we remind you that this application is merely informative, including a link to the Nokia recycling pageif you want to learn more about this process and the good habits of said company.
