Can only get to pick my area then it crashes. Not much point to it really.

The app is a good idea but needs a lot of work yet. The worst part is the way it can suddenly make a phonecall with no proper warning especially to premium rate numbers. Uninstalled.

It appears that the developer is out of business ... should have been removed from the store as no content

A great app. Ive used it since its inception in Crawley and it's so useful now it can be adjusted to other parts of the country. Last Sunday I had a lovely meal that I found in the Warwick area on my way home from a weekend in North Wales and my local area improves every day in the useful info it carries.

Being severely partially sighted, this app is beyond useless to me, fonts are so small, no customisation options so an instant uninstall, good idea yet a waste of my time.

Poorly designed app. Doesn't give you links to websites or more information just let's you phone numbers of companies directly. My town has many pubs but only one listed.. Uninstalled

1st thing to note is that this app is for local information. It doesn't set out to emulate Google or other search engines. The app picks up location from your smartphone (NOT Tablet), and provides a good range of information. As the service is still at a relatively early stage it is not exhaustively complete, but for my area (East Staffs) there is a lot on offer, and it seems to be growing every day, both in depth of content and areas covered. UK only at the moment, but it is so well designed and useful that I'd expect it to be picked up by other places quite quickly.

Poor content, buggy, outdated information. Totally screwed over my phone. One of the worst guide apps ive ever encountered. Avoid

It's a good but the app has a few issues with searching. A space at the end of a line stops it displaying results. Search with return results on all words rather that search term. Easier just to use Google rather than mess around with this app

Fails to respond when I try to sort by distance. Without that feature it is virtually useless to me.
