Ratings and reviews

Overall not a bad concept. To be effective you would need a large user base. The charge to use this app is way too high. I live near a 2 million + metro area. There were hardly any restaurants that were reviewed. I attempted to send email to the restaurant and both emails got bounced back (not necessarily the apps fault as the restaurant website might have had incorrect information.) I could see maybe like $10/year. I canceled my subscription after using it for just a few days.

At first I left a 3 star review. Because the UI was average not that good and the pricing was too pricey. I accidentally didn't turn off my free trial and was charged for the year instead of the month. When I emailed them requesting them to charge me for the month instead I got no reply. I have left 4 to 5 emails now and no reply. I was also extremely polite in my emails and I'm deserving of a response at the least. So extremely unprofessional.

Incredible potential, very useful, should be free/ad supported. No one is going to subscribe to an app in this stage. Make it free and people like me would take the time to put all of our local restaurants on the map. Then charge in later stages, or ride it out on the ad revenue. This app has amazing potential but will fail with a subscription system this early on.
