Editor's review of Yelp

  • 4.5 stars

  • "Almost has it all"
  • Reviewed on: February 27, 2009
  • Version reviewed: Yelp 2.0

Yelp for iPhone contains all the ingredients you'd expect from the well-known site on which people rate local business and restaurant and look up listings, except for one small thing: the capability to create a rated review from the iPhone or iPod Touch. Two new features provide a workaround: one lets you write short, 140 character tips and observations; the other lets you begin a rated review and save it to finish and post from a computer.

Apart from that, the iPhone app cleanly features user-reviewed listings for restaurants, bars, banks, and so on, utilizing the iPhone's GPS know-how to target your current neighborhood. Each listing squeezes in the address, user ratings, distance, and price range. Mapping capabilities show you how to get there, and a call button can help you make the reservation. Feeds featuring your activities, your friends' ratings and tips, and all rating and tips for businesses nearby bring the app some of the same social-networking qualities as its beehive online. In addition to those, certain scheduling capabilities would be welcome, like sending a listing as an invitation for lunch.
