Summary

You’re looking for a nice little Italian restaurant in your ‘hood? Or the nearest cocktail bar after going to the movies? Or a hairdresser who has gotten some good reviews?

Features & Use

Section rating:

Even though the app’s functions are really diversified, they are nonetheless focused on the basics, so it works well when you’re on the go with your phone.

The functions are:

• You can browse through 21 different categories, from restaurants to exclusive clubs
• You can access 500 000 different evaluations
• The evaluations are based on a 5 star system and give you detailed information about the places(s) you’re interested in
• You can check out the necessary contact date: addresses, telephone numbers…
• If so desired, locations can be viewed on the integrated Google-Map

Qype can be combined with Android’s positioning option. This adds an additional benefit to the app, making it much more useful than the web application.

 

Screen & Controls

Section rating:

The screen looks really clean and well-arranged. Using the app is fast and easy, and comes across as very intuitive. Qype’s design and navigation leave nothing to be desired.

 

Speed & Stability

Section rating:

As long as you have UMTS, you won’t have any complaints about the speed or stability of this app, even though this it version 1.0, based on the first Android version (RC30). However, If you’re using a GPRS service, you might encounter a few hangers and misfires.


 

Price/Performance Ratio

Section rating:

The app is free for use and to download, so long as you have a data packet or data flatrate. If you don’t have this it might get a bit pricey.

You can obtain Qype Radar from the Android Market.

useful app / nützliche App Nice and useful app that helps to find nearby shops, restaurants etc. and find out their reputation. One less star because it is not compatible to my tablet computer, just with my cellphone. ***** Nett gemachte und nützliche App, mit der man naheliegende Shops, Restaurants, usw. finden und etwas über deren Zuverlässigkeit erfahren kann. Einen Stern Abzug gibt es dafür, dass die App nur auf meinem Handy, aber nicht auf meinem Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 läuft.

Too far away errors I set up a new location in our local Starbucks. Accepted that Ok, but when I went to sign in, it said I was too far away from it. I was sitting inside Starbucks. Tried on wifi and 3g. Would of been 5stars if not for that

Can't install. Sign up is pita. uses the browser even though my phone has the needed accounts. First a session time out, then the app crashed. I wish Germans would switch to Yelp.
