Good idea but useless

Can't find most of the places near me, these are long established Starbucks and Peet's, gas stations, supermarkets and pharmacies.
Great start

Works for me. Very easy interface and great navigation. My main complaints are:
- The Top 10 are hardcoded - why? I never look for Starbucks, McDonald's or Bank Of America (to name the top 3)
- When I find something, I am offered to add it to the favorites. Great. Why? Why would I like to add a particular Safeway to my favorites? I know where it is! I would like to add the *category* of Safeway (or whatever) to the list. Or do people keep looking for the same favorite store over and over? Even I can find a place after the 1st, maybe 2nd time...
Anyway, very useful and the customization can certainly be easily improved.
I Like It, But have three valuable suggestions.

I had Target finder, which was cool, but limited; and Target is here, so dump that. This is good but it needs three changes: 1. I don't care where the rest of the world likes to go. I want my own Top Ten (or more) List. And that's not Favorites. 2. Favorites is ill-conceived. I know where my favorite stores are at home. I want to be able to save specific chains, not individual locations, so when I show up in a strange city, I can get what I need. My favorites, as currently designed, do me no good on the road. 3. And finally, less critical, it would be great to be able to make notes. "This Safeway closes at 8." Or "This Wendy's has no parking." Things like that. No offense to Safeway or Wendy's. Thank you for this. It's a very good idea.
Didn't work for me :(

Easy interface. Just wish it worked for me. Can't locate anything. I've tried adjusting settings. Still nothing.

The only store it located was the apple store.... Imagine that! And the apple store near me is located in a mall with many chains listed in app , but says there are none in my area. Until it does a better job it is useless to me !
What a greed?

Thank you for turning a great app into such a trash. So you think you can upgrade existing users by turning their free versions into a useless app? I am deleting this asap. This us not just greed, but absence of ethics.
Five Stars

Absolutely deserves 5 stars, I am very surprise to see average rating so low. Users need to give those programmers who developed this great app and offer it for free more appreciation.
Potentially Dangerous Application

One night after an exciting evening out with friends, we spontaneously decide that cheap pizza would taste very good. But alas, none of us are familiar with the locations of our nearest pizza joints in this suburb! Oh, woe? Oh no! For I have my iPhone! Excitedly, I open my copy of ManGo and search for our nearest cheap pizza place, set it as our destination, and follow our trusty GPS!
However, this is where the tale gets dark. For you see, instead of pulling up to a brighty lit pizza storefront with the promises of stomach-upsetting junk food, we instead pull up to a beaten-up looking garage, attached to an equally creepy house. I check, double check, even triple check the address ManGo has provided us, and yes, apparently, this IS a pizza place.
Not willing to risk dismemberment or potential pregnancy just for a greasy dinner, we decide to try another franchise in a neighboring suburb. After a short drive, we pull up to a short strip mall neighboring a bowling alley. There is no pizza place in sight. However, we did catch sight of several "beings" hanging outside of this bowling alley in animal costumes. I pinch myself; nope, this isn't a horrible nightmare, my beloved iPhone has led me into the eye of a metaphorical hurricane of sick sexual fetishes.
Why, oh why do you lead me astray, ManGo? I come to you in hopes of eating delicious food with friends on a cool summer evening, but instead I escape both dismemberment and irreversible psychological harm because of you! My iPhone and I have since made up, but ManGo is, and shall remain, a bad memory and a portion of re-allocated space on my iPhone's hard drive.
