- Find distance of searched locations from your current position.
- Use it on-the-go to search for places of interest.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-04-02, version 5.1.2*

I download the app and it doesn’t work!!

### 5/5 — Very usefull

*2019-03-06, version 5.1.2*

I am a pilot and I use this app. on every layover to find the food (via restaurant or groceries) that I want to eat plus things to do.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2018-01-19, version 5.0.0*

Ads cover the content. Useless.

### 5/5 — Liked it better before updates

*2017-03-08, version 5.0.0*

After the last update, FindNearMe is not as easy or functional to use. The old version had menus which came in and out from each side so you could see the map and menu at the same time. Now you have to go back and forth from one screen to another. Also, the white instructions that overlay every time you begin can't be disabled and keep popping up. We have used FineNearMe when traveling for years and loved it but could someone please tell me how to undo this update on my iPad?!

### 2/5 — Not as Reliable as it Should Be.

*2016-07-02, version 4.3.4*

This app finds some of the most obvious places you might be searching for in a city, but it is not reliable, useful or comprehensive in non-urban areas, which is where you really need it. It is a great idea that was released before it was finished.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate in finding atm

*2015-12-22, version 4.3.3*

Very inaccurate in finding atm locations, pretty useless.

### 1/5 — Worthless spyware

*2015-12-04, version 4.3.3*

Location services are available full time only, to be shared with advertisers. Showed me nothing not on Apple maps.

### 1/5 — Find Near Me is worthless

*2015-11-08, version 3.1*

Actually, less than worthless. Since the last update, this app has been frozen on my iPad. Can't use it. Can't update it. And can't remove it. Total waste and I paid for the ad-less version. Worked fine until that last "improvement." Zero stars.

### 5/5 — Never Fail

*2015-10-16, version 3.7*

I've used this apt many times with outstanding results!

### 1/5 — All ads no help

*2015-09-16, version 4.3.1*

Your search is immediatedly buried in ads and unwanted links. This app is built to sell, not inform. There's info in the first window, just enough so you'll waste time trying for more. Stay away!!
