Very nice idea and great interface. BUT DON'T TAKE 1/2 MY SCREEN WITH ADS! I understand everyone needs to make money, but here, it's just too obnoxious! Also warning: This apps gets access to all kinds of stuff on your phone, such as contacts, calendar events, device history and applications installed. Not too comfortable with that.

D70%
by D####:

Not as good as advertised. All descriptions that require expanding them (i.e. "more") to read the entire section never expand, so you're left with incomplete ones. Similar to other reviewers, locations seem out of date in many instances. Such a disappointment from much older versions of this app. Even my old Blackberry version was much better in accuracy.

U70%
by U####:

People search is useless! Very disappointed. I've asked for support but got no help. Other apps prove to be better.

V70%
by V####:

Of the restaurants listed near my house, most have been out of business for years (one for 15 years), one is a travel agency, one is a grocery store, and one is a hot-dog machine in a gas station. I have contacted Poynt about this, but they have no interest in correcting bad data. Update in 2017: still no corrections.

Update turns this into a garbage app where half the screen screams fraudulent warnings about being infected, etc., etc. Am uninstalling.

Used to like this app a lot but it now has a spam screen that takes up nearly half the top of screen and it is annoying crap too in my opinion. I fear it will face deletion soon. Good bye Point hello GasBuddy. C ya.

U70%
by U####:

Used to be a great app, but greedy developers now sell half of your screen to advertisers. I don't know about anyone else, but I don't buy a bigger phone so I can see obnoxious billboard sized ads I don't want - This app is now "the weakest link - goodbye!"

C70%
by C####:

Now it is just one giant ad. Uninstalled. What a shame the developers ruined this app with cheesy ads for apps that no one wants in the first place.

I use Poynt for finding best gas prices, movies, hotels, restaurants, etc. It's gas prices function is excellent and works faster than GasBuddy. I have one car that uses Premium gas and other uses regular and Poynt is always up to date on prices.
