What the Press is Saying About NFT iPhone:
New York Times: "...the guide highlights neighborhood amenities like bicycle repair shops and community gardens."
LA Times: "The Top Picks are invaluable...the NFT guide is both snarky/fun and inviting...a welcome alternative to the $9.99 (and up) iPhone app price tags on other city guides."
ZDNet: "A good investment if you dont want to be "That Guy" opening a huge map in the middle of Times Square."
Jaunted: "You'll be instantly comfortable navigating the app by fingertip; it's almost as if the books were designed based on the app and not the other way around."

Some choice listings:
Arturo's "Classic NYC pizza joint with live jazz. NFT favorite."
Ghostbusters Firehouse "Are you the gatekeeper?"
Charles' Southern-Style Kitchen "The fried chicken they serve in heaven."
Brooklyn Social: "Old boy's lounge revamped. Cocktails still the same. NFT pick."
Joe's Shanghai "Crab Soup Dumpling Mecca. Worth the wait."

Problem with location in new version (4 stars)
This used to be my all time favorite app. I navigated NYC like a pro and found all kinds of things to do in places to go when I visited the city. But something is wrong with the latest version. It was not able to located me using the gps- one of the best features. I used to be able to hit the "close by" tab and the app would locate me and show me great nearby restaurants, landmarks, coffee places, stores - anything I wanted! It wa

Location is not working (1 star)
I keep getting an error message saying "Error getting location - access denied." This app is really not helpful if you can't find the cool locations you are near. This needs to get fixed asap.

Pointless. Just use google search on the map (1 star)
2.99$? No way. So disappointed, all the useful info in the printed version isn't here. I was dupped by the overall high ratings which I don't I understand at all.
