- Added reviews from Yelp & Google. Tap on the review & see reviewer's profile. - Added links to profiles from Yelp & Google. - Added link to listing's website if available. - Added driving directions link. Tapping on this link will open Apple's Map Application for step by step driving directions to the listing. - This version requires IOS 15.0.0+ or above so please upgrade. The backend Linux Services Integrations was the biggest change to the App! These changes include: - Implementation of primary & backup services. These changes enable the App to automatically switch between  primary & backup services in case of an outage. Hopefully this should minimize any disruptions in the App. - Implementation of Server Side Configurations. Some configurations can be implemented from the server without a full re-deployment of the App. - Enable/Disable features within the App without a full re-deployment. Just a reminder for more accurate location information, the app needs "Precision" to be on because the app calculates distances between you and the closes “Coffee“ listings. On your device goto: 1) Settings 2) Select "Privacy" 3) Select "Location Services" 4) Select "CoffeePlaceMeetUp" 5) Exit & relaunch the app. Select either "While Using the App" or "Always". I recommend selecting "While Using the App" since "CoffeePlaceMeetUp" only need to know your location while you are using the app. Get "CoffeePlaceMeetUp" News on Twitter/Facebook: https://twitter.com/CoffeePlaceMeet OR search for “CoffeePlaceMeet” on Twitter. OR https://www.facebook.com/coffeeplace.meetup search for “coffeeplace.meetup” on Facebook.
