directory listing with GPS

Hi All, I just finish one simple Apps for testing which is more on information ready app(not yet publish at google store). Now, for next, I'm planning to build an Apps which something like directory business listing. like list of restaurants at my local place I know we can use GPS location map but seem like it not really user friendly. any ideas on how to make it more simple and easy with BT? Really appreciate any advice here.

The Location Map is actually not all that bad; you just have to wrap your head around the concept of Child Items... all the points on the map are just more child items. What concept are you having issues with? Cheers! -- Smug

Hi Smug, I not sure if I understand the Child Items concept. In my mind, I'm thinking of populate(my self based on long/lat) all restaurant at the map and people can search either by name or near me. but not sure how to do it. It similar as "Place" app on android, but I believe not all restaurant covered since the owner need to add it at google place.
