What's New in Spotlist

2.0

November 2, 2026

Spotlist 2.0 is our biggest update yet: plan whole trips around food, ask for exactly what you're craving, and explore a fresh new look. PLAN THE TRIP AROUND THE FOOD - Pick a city and your dates. Spotlist plans breakfast, lunch, and dinner for each day, using spots from people you trust. - Start a trip from any list with "Plan a trip." - Share your plan with a link so everyone's on the same page. JUST ASK - Search the way you talk, like "cozy ramen for a rainy night" or "brunch with a big group." - Every answer is a real spot, recommended in the words of the people who saved it. - Narrow it down with follow-ups like "cheaper" or "closer to me." A FRESH NEW LOOK - A cleaner, calmer design, with new navigation, roomier lists, and photo headers. - Spot pages lead with the essentials: the address, easy-to-read hours, and the dishes people say to try. Plus: video on spots and check-ins, photo captions, an easy way to swap out a spot you saved by mistake, and lots of polish throughout. Thanks for being here. Keep the recommendations coming.

Real recommendations from real people

Been using spotlist for a bit now and it’s one of the easiest food apps I’ve tried. Love that it’s focused on curation rather than reviews from random people. Already found some great spots through the app

Imported 80 restaurants in 10s

Copy and pasted my messy Google doc with 80 Seattle restaurant recommendations and it imported in about 10 seconds. Kept all my notes, and mapped every place. Shared the link with my friends. So easy!
