I use this service from time to time, never had any problems

Thanks for feedback. It's based primarily on Open Street Map. It's always up to date and I can make some corrections to data independently of data provider. This approach has some downsides of course and I'm thinking how to improve it. Open Street Map is quite reliable but someone may just stop accepting Bitcoin and forget to remove the place from OSM database. Maybe it will be removed by someone later but still place will be displayed on the map for some time.

Not sure about the solution yet. Adding "verify" button would help to improve data reliability. So people would be able to mark places they visited and it will add more confidence to other people. It's better to try cafe or ATM with 10 verifications than 0 =)

Sure. But it's better if you add it to OSM. The app uses Open Street Map as one of the data providers. If you add it here - it also will be visible in similar services like http://coinmap.org/ and so on. My backend synchronizes with OSM every hour, so it will be available in an hour or two.

PS. Don't forget to add the tag: payment:bitcoin": "yes" to your place

Thanks! Should be available for all countries. The app can use location data only if user allows it in Android settings. It also will work without knowing your location of course. But in this case you have to select your area of interest manually if you want to be notified when new merchant appears in this area. By default it's few miles away from your last location. But if you wouldn't allow location access - the app wouldn't have any way to set it for you =)

Hi guys. Just published Bitcoin merchants map for Android. Maybe it could be useful for someone.

Except the basic map features this app can send notifications when there is new merchant in your "area of interest". Text search, results filtering and altcoin merchants are also supported. Any suggestions are welcome =)
