Nearabout

Remember that place
you wanted to try?

A friend mentions a restaurant. You pass a little coffee shop. Save them in Nearabout, with a note about why you want to go, and come back when you’re making plans.

“Where would you
recommend?”

When a friend asks where to eat, you want to send more than a name. Keep your favorites with a few notes about what you loved or what to order. Then share the whole list.

  1. Start with a few places.

    Type or paste names, addresses, or categories like “bakery.” Choose the right locations from the matches.

  2. Add your notes.

    Leave a note for yourself or for the person you’ll share it with. You can group places and come back to the list anytime.

  3. Share the list.

    Send a list with your notes, addresses, and map links. The person receiving it can open a place right from the list.

What have you
got planned?

A vacation you’ve been looking forward to.

Collect the restaurants, coffee shops, and stores you want to visit, and give each its own group. When you’re there, pick a few for the day and let the route planner help with the order.

A friend who trusts your taste.

Keep the places people recommend alongside the ones you already love. When someone asks where to eat, send a helpful text with your notes and links to the places.

Getting to know what’s around you.

Start from where you are or any address you choose. Make a list of nearby places with distances and travel times—for yourself, for someone visiting, or to share in a post.

An afternoon with a few stops.

Five errands before pickup. A bar crawl with friends. Or a free afternoon with somewhere good to eat along the way. Put the places together, then work out an order when you’re ready.

Saved lists stay with you across iPhone, iPad, and Mac through iCloud. Share them as text or PDF, or keep a copy in Notes.
