We found this app released this morning in the Apple App Store. You can locate a Bitcoin locator, as well as converting Bitcoins from and to currencies.

You've got to be kidding me. This app should not be bought nor used. ATM location data (most of it anyways) is publicly available and easily found. Why should one pay some random person for such an app? You're supposed to pay for a map of ~400 ATMs, nice rip off. This would have been good if it was released as a free app.

Why would this app cost around 1$?
It seems that it has a good feature and very helpful.
I wish to see soon this app also for Android devices.

Seems like a useful app, ruined for being paid... It could be free with ads.

I'd love to test it, but no Bitcoin ATM's near me Cheesy

Are there any applications like this for Android? I have always wondered where are possible Bitcoin ATMs around me. It would be great to know this. Unfortunately I don't have an IPhone.

I agree that asking for a fee probably kill the app.
We are not the developer, we just report new apps. In general I think it is fair to pay developers for the work they do (the data is one thing, the user interface is another).

Everyone really prefer an app with AD over an app you pay $1 but is cleanest and less intrusive?
Should the author release a free app with AD?

PS: We will send the feedback to the author/publisher of this app

How about he either does one of the following:
1) Release a free app with ADs with a option to remove them by paying 0.99$.
2) Release a free app and leave a BTC donation address.

It's not like he would earn a lot of money from this either way, nor did it need a lot of time to make that app.

Makes total sense to me. We will send this thread to the author, maybe he will make it happen?

Yes we just found this one, but did not tested it:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fwebcreative.bitcoinatmlocator

It is free - but the feedback is not that good (3/5 on 9 votes)

This seems to be something like different but maybe it is not yet updated.

I see many difference in the map see how many red points are there comparing with the iOS app.

These 2 apps are different and not updated and i would not use the out dated one.

Yes, I have just checked it but this definitely doesn't work well. Some of the ATMs that I know about are not being shown by this application.

Only for US ? This kind of app showuld be provided free. You can add some ads if you want income from it. Anyway nice app. Tho I can't really use it as I'm outside US. Give this app for free and it's more than enough for people to give thanks and maybe some tips if they find the app helpful.

This app looks like a total plagiarism from our iOS app we released a while ago. Pretty sure the app is using our free API.
The most ridiculous thing is that these guys are trying to sell it, and we provide it for free, and also our apps don't have any ads. The most important thing for us is user-experience.

CoinATMRadar has the most up-to-date data on bitcoin ATMs nowadays and all this updated data is used in both iOS and Android apps.
Everything is provided free of charge.

Here is a link to free iOS app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/coinatmradar/id944855781

And here is a free Android version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coinatmradar.android&hl=en


You can also use our website http://coinatmradar.com/, where there are many details about bitcoin ATMs, including user's feedback.
Check it before visiting the location and you can save a lot of time.

Thanks for linking the Android version of this, plus it's free! No one should pay for something like this, given that we could actually find it publicly available though we need to do searching ourselves. And to those bitcoin enthusiasts looking to setup a bitcoin-related business, come to the Philippines and I'm dead sure that your business would be gladly accepted here. Smiley

It is really unfair using someone else free API and sell it.
Is is a good opportunity that your mobile application is free,
What will you do, reporting it seems that will bring any result, or just maybe changing the API ?

Great app, I will download it shortly and happy to see it is free especially when all this information is available elsewhere on the web for nothing.
