Not what it used to be

I have never ever understood my companies remove stuff from software or hardware....if you are inproving something...go ahead and keeo adding features...but taking away? that is many times not an upgrade but a downgrade. I used to love just to open the map with all the little red pins and see for myself what is AROUND ME and nit have to pick a specific catefory first....Sometimes Indin't know what I want and I just want to see a map of everything around me so I can choose.

I used to travel all the time for my job and used this app daily. But now, I'm finding places in the app that have been out of business for years. So, after finding something using the app I then have to check another resource to see of the place still exists. Please update your information and make this app as useful as it used to be.
Not reliable - Do NOT use

On a recent trip to NYC I downloaded the App believing it would help me select restaurants, bars or a hotel around me. Not knowing what truly was around I trusted the App. Once home I used the App in an area full of restaurants. To be specific, there are 13 restaurants in this one strip mall known for high end restaurants. The App show ONLY 2. Not acceptable. Do NOT use the App.
Terrible for finding entertainment

I’m a music buff, and I like the Concerts feature. The idea of it, anyway. Unfortunately, listings are made by distance, not date. You’d be lucky to find an event happening today in the app, but you can find how far a certain event is in a month or two when you’re bored as hell tonight.
Pornographic ads

I have had this app for several years and use it faithfully when I am out of town. In the last few days, two pornographic adds have popped up while using the app. Makes me very angry and I plan to delete the app from my phone ?
Works great on I phone

I use it to check movies, food, etc. traveling. I had problem using simultaneously XM radio this app with my droid but when I got I phone they work together fine (not sure why)
It helped me find a shoe store

I've tried Around Me for restaurants and motels before with limited success due to too much or too spotty information. But I tried searching for orthopedic shoes for my mom and it gave me a real good list of places to call, and most importantly, showed me distances to each. Around Me has redeemed itself and earned a spot on my phone for another six months.. ? I don't really remember making this review, but Around Me is still on my phone and I still use it when traveling. I was driving north on I-95 on the way to a military ceremony and it helped me find a barbershop somewhere in North Carolina. Really great because it gives you the approximate distance from your current location, not some zip code. Five stars! ?✨
Problem with locations

Aroundme strictly uses GPS to locate places. Therefore it gives locations based on the "flying" distance. We live on the bay and it gives mileage across the water rather than on the road and directs me to take my boat!
