### 1/5 — Worthless

*2025-09-10*

Does give you good options on finding locations

### 5/5 — Well Designed | Limited Free option

*2024-09-17*

It is really well designed, had only some weird sense with the “relive photo”. My only complaint is the Free usage limit of 10 searches, also it doesn’t have a one time payment.

**Developer response:** thank you for trying out the app! I’m excited to keep improving the features as we move forward. the subscription model helps cover the costs of each response, which comes from a large language model. offering an unlimited free tier or a one-time fee wouldn’t be sustainable. I hope you understand and appreciate your support :D
