The latest version of the local.ch Android app is here. One month after the iOS app update, the new range of functions is now also available for Android users. It even comes with a few extras to say thank you for waiting so long.
Restaurant guest reviews
Deciding on the right restaurant is never easy, especially when your stomach is already rumbling. The updated local.ch now has newly integrated restaurant reviews to help hungry users make up their minds. Who knows, you could find your new favourite culinary spot by reading about what others enjoy. To make the decision easier, users can view recommendation rates and star reviews from guests about the atmosphere, service and food, as well as written, personal reviews from guests. Which just leaves us to say, enjoy your meal!
Improved search help
Not only is searching easier, the memory function is better too. Instead of just helping you once you’ve entered your previous searches, now you’ll get help in the search field as you type. This makes your searches more efficient without you needing to remember what you searched for last time.
Sharing with friends
local.ch now interacts with apps that allow sharing, such as Twitter, Slack, Google+, etc. Now you can easily share your favourite local.ch entries or special offers with your friends.
Muting telemarketing calls
In the local.ch app settings, you can even activate a service that automatically mutes your ringtone when you receive a telemarketing call.
In addition to this, we have also made other improvements based on material design to make the app more user friendly. Now you only need to tap one button for each listing, making it easier to make a call. Alternatively, if you’re looking at a restaurant that accepts online reservations, one click will take you straight to the reservations page.
