Facearound by Business Competence is a social networking app that allows you to geolocalize yourself and plan your outings based on comments, advice, and experiences of those in your social networking circles. You can also try out suggestions made by people not in your friends list.
You’ll get the opportunity to take advantage of sales and other offers at stores, clubs, shops, and more. If you see a notice of a deal, run to get there before anyone else to make sure you get a chance!
You’ll be able to check out the experiences of other users when it comes to shoe stores, hotels, clubs, pubs, stores, restaurants, and more. If there’s somewhere you’d like to check out, even in a different part of the city, check in with Facearound to see what others have to say about it. Just scroll on the map to where you want to go.
If you’re unsure of where you’d like to go, read the reviews, tips, and comments left by people who have already checked out the venue. You can set the preferred parameter within the area you’d like to travel, or search a wider area for ideas. Different types of locations are marked in different colors on the map.
If you don’t know where to go, then check out the deals being offered; this can often help you decide.
Access to the app is automatic through Facebook. You don’t have to fill out a registration form and it’s easy to find your friends.
The app was updated to Version 1.3 on November 14, 2012. The update made some performance improvements. To date there are not enough ratings for iTunes to display an average, and there are no feedback comments.
