Places Around

If you appear to be abroad or in an unfamiliar city, and if you wish to quickly orient yourself in the surroundings near your location, the “Places Around” application will be helpful.

The “Places Around” application can quickly identify your precise location and helps to find different places around, such as restaurants, banks, public transport stops, hotels, cinemas etc.

For finding a place that satisfies all your requirements, you may do a detailed search of data, including exact address, phone number, web site, and rating, if the relative information is available.

The application is helpful both for tourists travelling in cities and countries as well as for common citizens willing to have a reference book of accessible places at hand.

The results of the search of places within 1 to 20 km radius around you may provide you with up to 200 exact coordinates.

- For proper work of an application, location provider – GPS – should be turned on to quickly and exactly estimate your location.
- For searching places around your location, the Internet connection should be turned on.
- The application does not consume much traffic. Subsequently, if Wi-Fi is not available, limited mobile Internet traffic may be used instead.
- Places can be viewed in an offline mode. If there has previously been an inquiry with the same parameters, all data will be saved in a database on your device.
- Over 90 kinds of places are available for search. All paces are divided into 9 groups for the reasons of convenience: government agencies, leisure, food places, health and beauty, stores, services, religion, transport and services, finance.
- The results of a search may be displayed either on a map or in a list form.
- In Settings, you may select a radius of the search, turn GPS and Wi-Fi on, remove all data of previous searches from the database, leave a comment, advice or proposal for the author, and rate the application.
- Phone numbers or websites, found among the results of a detailed search, may be directly used for calling or following a page of an agency or institution.
