Description

Small Places

Discover the independent businesses and hidden gems around you — no chains, no noise.

Small Places uses OpenStreetMap to surface nearby cafes, bookstores, vintage shops, bakeries, parks, and more, filtered by walking distance and updated as you move. Built to help you slow down and appreciate the small things in life.

Features:
- Live nearby list with walk-time estimates and closing-soon warnings
- Compass radar view showing places by direction and distance
- Smart time-of-day priority sorting (coffee shops in the morning, bars in the evening)
- Mood presets to instantly switch your search focus — Morning Fuel, Lunch Break, Evening Out, Weekend Wander
- Save spots you want to visit later to "My Places" for quick reference
- Chain filtering keeps results locally-owned and independent 
- Background wake-ups so results are ready when you raise your wrist
- Configurable radius, poll interval, hours filter, and measurement units
- Manual latitude/longitude input mode lets you explore local businesses anywhere in the world from the comfort of your current location (or simply get a better idea of the app's abilities without downloading to a physical watch)

Supported Business Categories: Art & craft, bakeries, bars & pubs, bike shops, bookstores, cafes, clothing, florists, game stores, gift shops, grocery, hardware, libraries, music stores, parks, pet stores, restaurants, specialty food, toy stores, vintage & second-hand shops. 

Platform notes:
- Full experience (color, radar view) on Pebble Time 2, and Pebble Time Round 2
- Pebble 2 Duo: all features supported, radar view not available to save you some space for a more lightweight small places experience
- Original Pebble: supported with a reduced nearby list (5 places) and bookmark limit (10); radar view not available. Just the core functionality without modern space expectations weighing you down.
