Can't understand how to show the nearest places in appinventor. I need help immediately
See here
I think you need a list of point locations that interest you. Then you compare your location with this list and display the points that are not far away.
The simplest way to find the nearest restaurants is to use the ActivityStarter to search as shown in the following link Is there any way to implement Place Types in App Inventor?
Does this work for you?
Another example using a LocationSensor with the ActivityStarter
If you type restaurant near me in the TextBox in the ActivityStarter example that shows a TextBox, the ActivityStarter will provide a map and a Listing of restaurants near him. Sagnik can type pet shops or hospitals and it will display them too.
these are showing results in google maps am i right
yes, it displays in Google map. If he has a List of the restaurants and their locations, he can use the example dora posted.
I think Sagnik can decide what he means?
okay got your point
I am very glad to answer questions in the community.
If you have a question, start a new topic.
I do not provide assistance using PMs, sorry.
I ended up using location sensor and webviewer LOL
but location sensor works very slow

Welcome Presley.
See both of the links in post number 4 . Each shows a slightly different way to find stuff. These examples use the LocationSensor
or use this solution using only an activity starter and WIFI Find closest hairdresser - #5 by SteveJG
Show us what you tried if you still have a question
Good topic, even in ecommerce app we need this feature of locating shops (from user's location) and display in a page by showing nearer shops first and the shops at distance will be displayed after that orderly. I also, planning to create an app like that.
