## What is Impromptu!?

Got a free hour? Impromptu tells you what to do with it.

Open the app and instantly see real things happening within walking distance — restaurants open now, live events and shows, parks, cafés, and more — ranked by how close they are and how much time you've got.

No endless scrolling. No planning. No mood quizzes. Just tell Impromptu how much time you have — 30 minutes, an hour, or the whole evening — and it shows you a handful of great options nearby, each with photos, ratings, walking time, and a tap-through to directions or tickets.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
• Real, verifiable places and events — every suggestion links to Google Maps or Ticketmaster, so nothing is made up
• Filtered by your time — see only what fits the window you actually have
• Walking-distance first — everything's close enough to just go
• A map view to see what's around you at a glance
• Save the spots you want to come back to
• Tap "Show me something else" for a fresh set anytime

Impromptu is built for the spur of the moment — when you're out, a little bored, and want something good to do right now.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4 — 2026-08-20

Impromptu now finds a lot more of what's actually around you.

More kinds of places. Night clubs, comedy clubs, karaoke bars, wineries, ice rinks and more can now show up. The app simply never asked for them before, so it could never suggest one.

Genuinely nearby. Results are ranked by distance rather than by how famous a place is anywhere in the search radius — so you get the neighborhood spot a four-minute walk away, not the landmark across town.

Time filters that work. How long a place takes is now worked out from the place itself. Picking "30 min" used to return food and nothing else; now it spans parks, galleries and quick stops too.

Open when it says it is. Much stricter about opening hours, so no more suggesting a museum at 2am — while late-night food and music stay available when they're genuinely still trading.

Browse answers "right now". Shelves are ordered by the hour, so you don't open Browse at breakfast to a row of tonight's concerts.

Better tailoring. Tailor your picks in a card flow, with indoor/outdoor and "something new" options.

Share a place. Send somewhere to a friend with a card that links back into the app.

Plus more accurate categories and pricing, and better ranking throughout — independents over chains, and fewer one-look landmarks holding the top slot.

### 1.3 — 2026-08-07

Smarter suggestions, cleaner picks.
We fixed a bunch of problems.

Chain restaurants and big-box stores no longer crowd out local spots — especially in Hidden gems, which had started surfacing places that were never really finds. And you won't see an empty amphitheater or stadium suggested when nothing's actually happening there.

Also in this update:
• Distance is now a single dial instead of a row of buttons, so it's easier to tell apart from your time filter
• Sharper map at every zoom level
• Fixed an account sign-up issue where confirming your email could land on a blank page
• Small performance and stability improvements

### 1.2 — 2026-08-06

Browse is completely redesigned. Instead of one long list, you now get curated shelves that change with the moment — Live tonight, Still open late, Nice out, Hidden gems, Cheap and close, and more.

Live music and events. New shelves pull concerts, games, and shows from Ticketmaster and SeatGeek, so you can see what's happening tonight without leaving the app.

A map that makes sense. See exactly the area you're searching, filter by category with a tap, and get a full place card when you tap a pin.

Optional accounts. Create one to sync your saved places and preferences across devices — or skip it entirely. The app works the same either way.

Light and dark mode. Follow your phone's setting or pick one and stick with it.

Also in this update:
• Saved places no longer disappear when they're closed or out of range
• Your tailoring answers are remembered between visits
• Faster repeat opens
• No more suggesting parks in the middle of the night
• A short walkthrough the first time you open the app

### 1.1 — 2026-08-04

• Tell us what you're in the mood for — a quick questionnaire tailors picks to your hunger, budget, energy, and company
• Weather-aware suggestions that favor indoor spots when it's miserable out
• Adjustable distance, from a short walk to a 10-mile drive
• New Culture and Play categories: museums, theaters, bowling, arcades, cinemas
• Set reminders for events and add them straight to your calendar
• Events from SeatGeek alongside Ticketmaster
• Richer cards with photos, ratings, prices, and closing times
• Smoother animations throughout

### 1.0 — 2026-07-29
