Download the app

The first step is to download Waki from the App Store or Google Play. The app is completely free and you'll have your account ready in under two minutes.

Set up your profile

Once you're in, complete your profile with your name and area. This helps nearby neighbors find you easily when you post an item.

Post your first item

Got something at home you no longer use? Take a photo, add a short description, and post it. Within minutes, someone in your neighborhood could be interested.

Tips for a great listing

  • Use photos with good natural light.
  • Describe the condition of the item honestly.
  • Indicate whether you prefer to donate or swap.

Connect with your community

When someone shows interest, use Waki's chat to coordinate the handover. It's safe, direct, and has no middlemen.

Why start today?

Every item you share is a step toward a more sustainable life. Reducing, reusing, and sharing doesn't just help the planet — it also creates real connections with the people around you.
