Finding things near you
Show only posts within a distance of you, or of any place you choose.
On the Market tab
- Tap Market, then Distance in the second row of filters. It is not there while Events is chosen.
- Location & Radius opens. To use where you are, tap the target button. Or tap the map, or drag the pin, to choose another centre.
- Choose how far with Search radius: from 100 metres to 50 kilometres.
- Tap Apply. The button then shows the distance, like 5km.
- To go back to everything, open it again and tap Reset.
Posts with no location are always shown.
The picker opens on a fixed spot, not on you. Tap the target button, or tap the map, before you tap Apply.
On the Map
The map has no distance filter. Tap the target button on the left to see where you are, then look around and zoom.
Events near you
Event cards show how far away they are once you have let the app use your location.
