Leider gibt es viele Restaurants in der App, die nicht existieren! ### 3/5 — Used to love it… *2025-12-23, version 12.0.16* This was a go-to app for so many years and just recently it quit working. The categories come up but as soon as I tap on a category, instead of a list of places I see a tiny icon and then it locks up from there. Location services are on when using app. What happened? ### 2/5 — Old info *2025-10-18, version 12.0.16* This app needs to be updated. Still has restaurants that have been closed for years ### 2/5 — 可惜都是英文！ *2025-10-07, version 12.0.16* 為何不能用中文？ ### 2/5 — Feedback *2025-09-29, version 12.0.16* Around Me suffers from a lack of selectivity. When I selected “hospitals” I got dental offices and medical practices on the list. I had to sift through the junk to find the hospitals. ### 3/5 — 不正確 *2025-08-19, version 12.0.16* 引っ越してきた先でスーパーを見つけようとしたらココカラファインばかりが表示されます。何故？？実際にはいろいろなスーパーの店舗があるんだけど、どれも表示されないのはどうして？？ ### 2/5 — Sw ark mom *2025-07-27, version 12.0.16* Have used this app for years and loved it. On our present vacation and it has been useless. Sending us to restaurants that are closed or misnamed. Why can’t this app be updated with Current information?? ### 3/5 — Application qui manque de mise à jour *2025-07-14, version 12.0.16* Bonne application mais qui manque de mise à jour. Par exemple un supermarché ouvert il y a 6 ans n'est pas encore mentionné, de même que plusieurs restaurants. L'interface est vieillotte 😇😇😇 ### 2/5 — Please update *2025-05-19, version 12.0.16* Not as accurate as in times past. Some restaurants in my area have closed but are still listed. ### 3/5 — Not up to date *2025-03-03, version 12.0.16* I have used this app for several years and liked it, but I have noticed in past 2 years that it is becoming less accurate. Last night I looked up restaurants near me in Denver and noticed 5 restaurants on the list that are no longer in business. The range was 3 months through almost 3 years gone! (There were a couple of others I think have closed recently but I’m not sure of those.) Recently closed I can forgive, but years closed need to be scrubbed. Someone is not keeping up. ### 1/5 — Bad *2024-11-27, version 12.0.16* This app is so out dated a couple of times I looked for a place and it didn’t exist anymore ### 2/5 — Tired *2024-11-19, version 12.0.16* I’m tired of asking why I don’t get show times anymore. I just got an iPhone 16 from a 13 and AroundMe hasn’t changed. Please help me, Joe ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Out of date *2026-07-19, version 12.0.16* Been sending info for years to help update this app but they won’t do it. Half the restaurants on the list are permanently closed. Deleting the app. ### 1/5 — Inutile *2026-04-24, version 12.0.16* J’ai fait plein de vérifications autour de chez moi, et je m’aperçois que l’appli m’indique une minorité d’endroits, sans doute ceux qui ont payé pour être indiqués. Donc, l’appli n’est d’aucune utilité. ### 1/5 — Abandonada desde hace años *2026-03-12, version 12.0.16* No recibe actualizaciones. Una pena ### 1/5 — No updating *2025-10-14, version 12.0.16* This site hasn’t been updated in years. ### 1/5 — nicht mehr aktuell *2025-10-04, version 12.0.16* die meisten Restaurants neben an werden nicht angezeigt, sondern Gaststätten in 5 km Entfernung, die schon lange nicht mehr existieren. Also: nicht zu gebrauchen. ### 1/5 — Just terrible *2025-06-23, version 12.0.16* Tested by looking for cafes nearby only found a Macondalds 6 blocks away, there are at least 6 cafes closer. Google found 15 Cafes within 4 blocks. Pointless and Useless App. 0 stars ### 1/5 — Needs updating *2025-05-26, version 12.0.16* The app is horrible. I have had it for years because the concept is good but it only shows restaurants you’ve passed….not what is coming up. Poorly designed and needs updating. ### 1/5 — Out dated *2025-04-15, version 12.0.16* Doesn’t show most places even if they’ve been there for years. Coffee shops & restaurants in particular. Use to be a good app… ### 1/5 — Inaccurate info *2025-04-12, version 12.0.16* On a trip looking for Costco gas stations, 3 out of the four were incorrect addresses ( they had moved years ago). Can not count on this app any longer😟 ### 1/5 — Not satisfied *2025-01-01, version 12.0.16* This app just shows specific banks, gas stations and restaurants. Don’t find this ideal. if you are travelling or exploring new locaion, you could easily end up not seeing some best amenities around.. 1 star.. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-07-25, version 12.0.16* I’ve always loved this app but today it was missing a starbucks. I’ll send the developer the information. ### 5/5 — Great App -Easy to use *2026-06-30, version 12.0.16* Been using it for a long time. Very handy. Wish they would update it though. Sometimes we are looking for a chain restaurant nearby & only that restaurant in other towns come up. ### 5/5 — Clear listings, needs updates and a map *2026-04-06, version 12.0.16* Clear design and listings. The compass needle next to each attraction lets me walk or drive to the nearest one. Thank you. It has not been updated since 2021; hope that it can be updated in the future. But I do not want to search for each item separately to find where it is. Please link to Apple Maps or Google Maps to provide a map showing attractions. ### 5/5 — Nützlich *2025-11-21, version 12.0.16* Ein sehr nützliches App, kann man immer brauchen, auf die Schnelle ### 5/5 — Good app *2025-06-21, version 12.0.16* I like it ### 5/5 — Reliable and consistent *2025-05-10, version 12.0.16* I have used this app for years. It is handy during emergencies and in a pinch. Yea perhaps more pricey versions exist of similar apps. However, for me simple and user friendly is the best and this app is just that. ### 5/5 — Good *2025-02-16, version 12.0.16* I’ve been using this app for years. It’s very user friendly. I’m using it globally. It’s very accurate, when I’m in a new city looking for a restaurant or supermarket . It’s perfect! ### 5/5 — Wichtigste App *2024-09-21, version 12.0.16* Ich bin viel unterwegs und diese App hilft mir seit 10 Jahren überall mich zurecht zu finden und schnell Restaurants, Apotheke oder einen Arzt zu erreichen. Minimalistisch und auf den Punkt vom Design, ich hoffe sie wird noch lange gepflegt. ### 5/5 — Movies and movie theaters no longer showing up! *2024-04-16, version 12.0.16* I’ve used the AroundMe app for a few years now and have always loved it. But the last couple of weeks when I go to check the Movie Theaters, or Movies, (which is still in the list of options) it says the server is not responding and will not give me any information on either of those two choices. Since it’s gone on for sometime, I have to figure that for some reason they are no longer providing this information. It would’ve been nice if they would’ve given a heads up through the app! ### 5/5 — Sottovalutata *2024-01-23, version 12.0.16* Ho scaricato quest’app nel lontano 2011 e da allora l’ho sempre usata solo e soltanto per un unica cosa: controllare la programmazione del cinema. Ed è la migliore che abbia mai provato, molto veloce e immediata a differenza del sito ufficiale cine8 e stasera al cinema. Forse in futuro proverò ad usarla anche per altre cose, anche se in genere mi viene più immediato google maps. Spero comunque che non venga abbandonata dagli sviluppatori (gli aggiornamenti non sono più così frequenti). --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
