Please note that we cannot provide a demo APK because, unless youre close to our location, you wont see any point of interest nearby you so you wont be able to test the app, thats why weve prepared a nice video preview of this app for you:
Finder is a Universal App Template for you to build your own Points of Interest app. Mostly dedicated to a city, you can easily add POIs data directly on your Parse Dashboard on back4app.com or on adminca.com.
Once youll create a new POI row, you will have to manually type its category, just make sure it matches the uppercase and lowercase characters of the names stored in the Categories class, otherwise the app wont recognize them.
Since its backend is by Parse SDK you dont have to buy any domain/hosting, there are NO php files to upload to a web server so youll save some money for sever side. Youve probably read that Parse is shutting down, but its only its hosting on parse.com that will be gone, not the SDK, this is why weve hosted in on back4app.com.

Important Disclaimer: Weve recently found out that some developers have bought our app templates, reskinned them just a bit and put them on sale on other source code markets similar to CodeCanyon, saying that they developed and own such source codes.
That is a serious copyright infringement, developers who buy our templates are allowed to reskin and sell them as apps on the App Store (accordingly to the License type theyve purchased a template for), but are not allowed to put our original source codes for sale on source code markets, including CodeCanyon.
