Seems to be more of a West coast app. It can't find anything for me in Pennsylvania
The "nearest" results for any vendor on any search is 400kms away.
Very helpful app. Love ut.
Live in Orange area. Found hairdresser in Ben Bullen but couldn't find anything else in any other category. Will uninstall
Great App!!
I'm in Bathurst NSW and the closest anything I've been able to find is in Mudgee which, according to this app is anywhere between 0 & 100 km away.
Hasnt disappointed
No ACT???
Business directory
Good
Great A must convienance
They call themselves "local" search but the results they give are based on who pays the most and how long they have been a customer. If it were genuinely local then it would show the closest business to you.
You will use this every day! So handy
Has done wonders for my bussiness Shells Mobile Detailing.
best app I have ever used for finding heaps of stuff. it's fast as well. I would defiantly recommend it
Cant find a blood thing

Love this app it has never let me down in a multitude of locations. Well done developers ,well done. Now to make it better. If that's possible.
Uninstalled and reinstalled.. Twice
I love this app,its easy to use on my phone & tablet. No more phone books yah!
On HTC one swipe on opening page doesn't open app
Would be good if you could open the app !!!!!!!!!! No good if you can't !!!!
Since the upgrade will not get past the "Swipe to continue" page. As an advertiser I will obviously be losing business as this is the only place I advertise. Fix it or I will take my business elsewhere.
Won't open. Can someone fix this pls! !!!!!
Cool
Says to swipe to continue but nothing happens. Don't bother downloading. Junk it Google!!
