MapsBuddy - a must have companion to the Maps application on your iPhone!
Imagine you are driving (or just hanging out with your friends). To locate the nearest coffee shop (or any such location), you would usually launch Maps, tap the current location button and then type "coffee shop" - thats too many things to do, not quick and definitely not very convenient!!
Instead use MapsBuddy!! Just launch MapsBuddy and tap on "Coffee Shop" - that will automatically locate and show all coffee shops near your current location on the map. Locate all your favorite places with one tap without the hassle of typing!!
