Places: Curated Discovery

I used to have this app and it had good recommendations for my city but since my phone got stolen, it’s impossible to use it again on a new phone, it asks me an invitation code that I don’t know where to find and no possibility to contact the app’s support. It’s very sad and I see no solution

This app has changed my life when it comes to travel. The hours I would spend looking for somewhere to eat has been reduced and now I can remember that amazing restaurant I ate at in Rome. Thank you Places.

A thoughtful and promising concept – immediately undone when my attempt to tap into the phone number box failed 🙃 My five stars are dedicated either to the (a) IT folks, if this is a bug, as a token of appreciation in advance for their prompt attention, or (b) creators, if this is a feature, for brilliance in ensuring even basic UI reflects the cohesive canon of discernment required of the Service,‡ including Raya,† to curate not only a “collection of global destinations” but also membership in the community with privileged access to that collection. ‡ As defined in this app’s Terms of Use as currently in effect, subject to which †Raya, ”another mobile application included in the Service,” is provided. Who says the App Store isn’t flexible? ❤️

Very well curated places. For those who love to find truly amazing restaurants and for those who are traveling and want a good recs from a friend

Places has been an amazing source to find the perfect suggestions for places of all kinds: restaurants, hotels, nightclubs, museums

Who do they think they are?? And they tell me after they take my phone number? Stay away from this app. It’s TRASH

What is going on? I registered and received a verification code. Entered that and now there is a waitlist… How long is the wait? How do they contact/approve you?

If you see the marketing for this app, don’t download it unless you have an invite code. Upon opening the app, it immediately requires your phone number—After you provide your phone number, it asks for an invite code and does not let you proceed any further without joining their waitlist.

Seems to be a bougie version of yelp. Personalized recommendations are great and all but it needs something else special to keep me on the app. I agree where it should have a feature like neon coat or beauty pass to incentivize people to try certain businesses. Also because it’s connected to Raya - would love to see a social dating aspect to this like if certain places hosted happy hours and then people could go specifically to meet with other app users or have meetups with their dates there. Speed dating / social happy hour / networking

Would love if this gave exclusive access/discounts to Raya influencers. Would love an experience similar to BeautyPass or NeonCoat!
