Reviews:
Great App  By: Gallitin - Dec 4, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 Great replacement for Urban Spoon.
So far, no good  By: GranvilleDB - 2-Sep-2009 Version: 3.0.0 Would be great if I wanted to know what was 20 minutes drive away instead of nearby. Oh well, decent enough effort though.
really like the monocle feature  By: blackster999 - 24-Sep-2009 Version: 3.1.0 Like this app, keep up the good work! It definitely adds some cool extra functionality to my iphone.
Blows away urbanspoon!!  By: DRomulous - Dec 4, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 Great site!!!
Nice layout, good features, but...  By: Mikeyxx - 30-Aug-2009 Version: 3.0.0 Content is lacking. "Around Me" finds more stuff around me but doesn't present it as well.
Impressive  By: Porksword29 - 18-Sep-2009 Version: 3.1.0 Searches are very quick and accurate but the map needs direction to option and possibly a move between map and satelite vew. Overall very good
Spectacular  By: Sertis - Dec 4, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 Very hand looking for a restaurant when I'm out shopping. Phone number, reviews and directions with just a few taps, great!
Augmented Reality *****  By: Mva5a5b - 29-Aug-2009 Version: 3.0.0 Great job guys. Thanks for bringing augmented reality to Canada. Just check it out and works pretty good. To use this just shake your phone up to 5 times and the feature will appear on the top right corner. Thanks cnet for the tip.
Yelp  By: Magooster - 15-Sep-2009 Version: 3.1.0 This has real potential - good interface and informative results. But it's not that accurate yet - there's a petrol station 100 meters from my house and it told me the nearest was 1.3 miles away! It's a community app so start using and uploading and it'll get better.
Super useful  By: WhiteKnight1 - Dec 3, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 Obviously this is only great for fans of yelp. Great for finding last minute stops, but wish you could filter by star rating and have it return to your last search after calling a place (as opposed to having to search again). Overall, fantastic!
Good app but broken for me...  By: mykotron - 28-Aug-2009 Version: 3.0.0 Crashes before even loading... it worked at first. Seemed pretty cool. Won't even open now.

Enjoying so far...  By: CBI 84 - 14-Sep-2009 Version: 3.0.0 This app has soo much potential. I'm really enjoying it at the moment, I just have a couple of suggestions;
They need to make it easier to search a restaraunt (or just anything), I don't like have to 'x' out the location every time, it's quite annoying because most of the time that I put the restaraunt and the location, it doesn't recognise it. Maybe an advanced search may help solve this problem.
It is super annoying that everytime you get a msg, compliment or any form of text comment, that you receive notification via email, and have to exit out of the app and use safari to view the message... What's up with that? The logic behind it is beyond me!
Also another annoying thing is have to finalise the review of something through the main website, it kinda defeats the object on the iPhone for me personally.
Aside from these slight complaints, I'm having a really good time using the app, but in simpler words:
IT NEEDS TO BE MORE IPHONE FREINDLY!!
Good app  By: Falastine - Dec 3, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 Very helpful in finding all kinds of things. The reviews are extremely helpful. But the obvious flaw is that what's there depends on what people review.
Not great  By: MacMan! - 28-Aug-2009 Version: 3.0.0 Considering Urbanspoon has reviews for 1800 restaurants in my city and this app only lists 300, it isn't worth the download! It also shows only 2 banks and 40 places to shop, which is not accurate at all. This app, although well designed, isn't useful.
Excellent  By: Anjil12345 - 12-Sep-2009 Version: 3.1.0 Finally I was able to see the AR Function in an app.It's amazing and the possibilities are immense! It needs to be finetuned but still 5 stars for the efforts.Monocle button is there after the 3.1 update, no crazy shakes needed now!!!
Cool app but why not review submissions?  By: Dave Scheidt - Nov 30, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 I wanna be able to complain about local buisnesses via iPhone. It's just dumb logic that they didn't add review submissions.
Augmented Reality  By: Ramcio - 28-Aug-2009 Version: 3.0.0 It is the first app to give Canadians AR. For that in itself Yelp deserves 5 stars.
not great  By: mayberts - 04-Sep-2009 Version: 3.0.0 not very good at all, does not really fine anything near me, AroundMe app is much better
Love it!  By: jeneejenn - Nov 29, 2009 Version: 3.1.1 Yelp is sooo helpful! It also allows you to view a selection on their website..which is cool to see. I think this is way better than Urbanspoon. Yelp has pictures of places (depending if someone uploaded it), reviews by the people, a map,...etc. It gives good information packed into an App.
Great App  By: keepsy112 - 16-Aug-2009 Version: 2.0.2 its a must have!!!!
Pants.  By: 3rd Rock - 30-Aug-2009 Version: 3.0.0 80% of the businesses are shown in the wrong place, often out by ten miles or more. Just type "pub" or "restaurant" into your iPhones built in map app, it's results are way more reliable. Just cuz this app is free doesn't mean it's great, you could waste some serious time if you actually tried to use it to find somewhere. I'm all for augmented reality, but this is augmented un-reality.
