Mobile Application for Pub Finder

AMJ UK was tasked with the creation of an IPhone (IOS) application called Pub Crawler. This application is designed to locate pubs and bars and is aimed at individuals who may want information on the type of pubs and bars nearby when they arrive in a new city for the first time.

Here is a video that shows the application in action-

The application is able to detect the users current location so that it can display a list of nearby pubs. The user can then display reviews of the pubs so that they can decide which pub he would like to go to. There is a filter which works on multiple criteria such as type of bar eg sports bars, wine bars etc within a given distance.

Once the search has been performed, results are displayed to the user on a Google map with pins and annotations. The user can then access the pubs details.

Technical Functionality :
Behind the application, there is a mySql database which contains a database of pubs and bars with all their details and their location (exact latitude and longitude).
