Live XYZ

I like this app the most when its raining outside…It is THE BEST for telling me exactly what is on a block, so I don’t have stay in the rain. If I use google to find a spot to keep dry, I always end up soaked. It’s like, google...I’m looking for the closest bar...NOT one 5 blocks away & is partnered with you! I also REALLY like to use it to find discount drinks and food. Pretty much, I never pay full price for anything…since Live XYZ has every happy hour/food special in the city. I’ve also used it on occasion to find a place to bring a date. Typically I will use the Map List feature of the app, which is a curated list of guaranteed cool places to go in the city. If you’re new to the area…you’ve been here your whole life…there is something for you here. To top it off…this app is free, has no ads, and the company values are ones that I can respect. I cannot say the same for some of the other mapping platforms out there!

This app is seriously so awesome especially if you live in a place like New York City 🌃 If you’ve ever had the issue of pulling up google maps or yelp and still cannot find what is going on in your neighborhood than you will literally go bonkers for this app. I’ve used it to find last minute things to do, the best happy hours, weird art shows, or even just the hrs of the laundry mats in my area in a pinch. It’s crazy accurate.

I have been waiting for an app like this since smartphones came into existence - it pulls together the best of Google, Yelp, & all the other attempts in giving you the most up to date and accurate information about a place. I love using it for brunches & happy hours, but have also used it for nail salons, gas stations, ATMs & even a mechanic for my car - everything is on here! Live is the best 😍
