Badges on OLIO
What are badges?
Badges are a fun way to engage with the OLIO app! Think about them like medals you can collect, and proudly show to others! You can find all badges in the mobile app in the main menu under âMy Badgesâ.
What types of badges are there?
There are two types of badges: 1. Earned badges 2. Claimed badges
What are earned badges?
Earned badges are unlocked automatically as you interact with the OLIO app. For example, when you add your first food listing, the âFirst foodâ badge will automatically unlock, and show under âMy Badgesâ in the app!
What are claimed badges?
Unlike earned badges, claimed badges are not rewarded automatically. Instead, youâll need to complete a certain task to unlock them. For example, to unlock the âEarth Day 2021â badge, you had to share an item during a certain period, and include an earth emoji đ in the title. Most claimed badges can only be claimed over a certain time, so be quick before theyâre gone! đ
How can I see which badges I have or can unlock?
In the OLIO mobile app, tap the main menu (top right three horizontal lines) then tap âMy Badgesâ. Tap on one of the badges to read more about the badge, including how to unlock it.
How can I see which badges someone else unlocked?
Go to the OLIOerâs profile by tapping their profile picture, then scroll down to âBadgesâ. Tap on a badge to learn more about it.
