Thanks for the feedback fkjr2.

Regarding some of your points:

thanks
Poynt already does 3, but without the movie rating (number of stars). This is still a good idea though. You can read reviews and look at synopsis, cast and runtime information.

Stay tuned for #2.

You can already do #4, which is adding a listing to your address book or emailing it to a friend.

And here's a feature that no one has commented on yet but I'd like to point out:

You can email your friend information about the movie theatre and movie, plus a link to buy a ticket online. To do this, you merely need to look up a movie and a theatre playing it (or vice versa) then click on the listing with the showtimes and select "Email to Friend".

This "Email to Friend" feature is also available for yellow pages listings.

I won't comment on #1 yet, but it's definitely something to consider.

Unfortunately we don't have any data for Hong Kong yet. When we get that data I will be sure to notify you funkym. Thank you for trying the app.

#1 = no comment Maybe that means yes?? We need white pages !! LOL

how about SMS option along with emailing search results?
This IS the age of Text right?

Overall, a nice app - thanks


How about this - adding app to menu under addressbook so we can inject address "show in poynt" and then the app would open to location or search page. Superpages and Google does this now.

Hi fkjr2,
Excellent idea! I added the ability to SMS your friends. It will be in the next build along with many other new features. I will announce when it is available.

ETA? How about now?

Sorry that I haven't been posting guys, we've been super busy over here adding a couple new features, scrubbing the bugs, and making the application more reliable. Expect the automatic updates to take effect sometime next week. For now, you still have to go to:

m.mypoynt.com to grab it.

We have a new version:

0.8.3
- added favorites
- added full integration with address book (search from a contact with poynt)
- add a listing to the address book
- manage your favorite locations
- clear your search history (in options and settings)
- manually change connection type (in options and settings)
- bug fixes

tbhuang2, soon you won't have to check the page. Our automatic update system will notify users when there are updates, even in the versions that are currently released.

Changes in 0.8.5 are all bug fixes.
