Ratings and reviews

I like the app, it's simple and does what it needs to do. I use it over the official website. The searching/sorting is a little basic. Currently it sorts from name A - Z or rating 5 - 0. Would be useful if you could tap the heading and flip the results round to show from Z - A or 0 - 5. And maybe an ability to apply a filter to only show ratings you want to see. Maybe also give the ability to search by council?

I just downloaded the app, it has the food hygiene details of the eating establishments I use, and the date inspected, so it's informative and useful to me.

Does not work. I type in search criteria (e.g. city or place name) hit search, and no results show, hopefully this will be fixed and I can leave a better review.
