PublicSquare

I like the local lookup, but it's incredibly laggy. Instead of relying on the interactive map, it would be more efficient if you coded an organized list that's generated from the data pulled from the map. The list would feature the name, category, and address of the business (optionally if you put in a specific address or exact location, you could also see how far away they are). You would just click a business in the list to open their store page.

I love the concept.. but the reason I don't shop small business online is because of shipping costs... here I added 3 items (all by different stores) and at checkout I am given a separate shipping fee for each product ordered (ranging from $3 - $8 each).. I personally can't afford to do this if I am going to replace the Amazon app with my Public Square app. I highly recommend that they come up with a year membership fee that would garuntee you free shipping on orders over a certain $ amount.

Limited use but off to a good start. The "Near Me" option would be the most helpful but is also the least performing aspect. It takes forever to load and many tooltips popup off-screen. Attempting to pan causes another long load time and sometimes freezes the app. The online option has limited functioning categories. You can't actually search for the thing you want. You have to try and deduce what category it's listed under in their database and then search websites from the results.
