I’m creating an app that shows your location on a map and then finds and marks other establishments like “auto part stores”. I have the map and it marks your current location.
I just can’t figure out how to display the stores in the area.
Please help i’ve been looking and cant find anything that works.
Look for web services that provide store coordinates. I know that there is a service for displaying beer bars and other things.
Google probably have some sort of web api for this as their Google Maps app does exactly this. If you want just businesses though try Google Business and then get the address from that and push that into the Google Maps api, and you should be able to pull coordinates from it. Something like that.
