Heard shows you which bars in Los Angeles have a DJ playing tonight. Not concerts. Not shows you plan weeks ahead. The ordinary Tuesday where someone good is on the decks at a bar down the road, and you'd never have known. Open the map and every venue with music tonight is on it. • A live map of the city, bar by bar • Tonight, tomorrow, and the night after • Filter by genre or by neighborhood • See who's on — DJ names linked to their Instagram, set times, genres • Tap a venue for the night's billing and a link to the event • A verified mark on venues that manage their own listings Built for the decision you make at 9pm, not the one you make three weeks out. No account, no sign-up. Los Angeles only, for now. Echo Park to Venice, Highland Park to Santa Monica.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Heard at 5.0 against enc0re's 4.1.

On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
