Drift: Things To Do Nearby

Drift is free now. All of it. Here is what changed and why. Drift used to ask an AI to think of places, and then paid a second service to check whether those places were real, because sometimes they were not. That cost money every month, so the app cost money too. It now asks Apple Maps. Apple Maps only returns places that exist, so there is nothing to verify and nothing to pay for. Which means there is nothing left to charge you for, so I stopped. Every feature is free, there is no account, and nothing is collected. Drift also gained the whole of a second app I never shipped. Tell it where you are going and how often you want to stop, and it plans the drive: when you leave, where you stop, how long you stay, and what time you get there. What's Happening now looks around wherever you are, or any town you type, and when there are few shows nearby it shows you the venues that host them. And there are photographs everywhere, because a list of words never made anyone want to go anywhere. Everything you saved is still here, untouched. There is a tip jar in Settings if you want one. It unlocks nothing.
