The app looks great! It’s really helpful especially if you’re looking for places to go to. Kudos to the team behind it!
This app might face the 20/80 problem. Where 20% of the users actually contribute 80% of the content — in this case, reviews — which may entail bias. Hope they find a way around that soon, i fear establishments that could not afford yet negative input would legally opt out from the system. Overall, it’s a Great App! Cheers.
ScumBagged Grammars Nazissss Trololololol!
I love the app, but it’s buggy. Hope they fix it soon.
The app sin’t working sir Abe. It says it needs to connect to my facebook account but is not redirecting to the facebook app. Already sent an email to looloo. :(
I think the people behind this app deserves a mention. If you are gonna feature local apps, might as well feature the pinoy devs who did this.
better than foursquare? :D
I believe “loloo”‘s a product logo/trademark and should be written as it is.
Hopefully they release this on Android and WP as well.
Grammar nazi mode. Always start your sentence with a capital letter, even if the noun’s standard form beging with a small letter. :)
