Find Near Me also allows you to find other locations and search for places around them. It even remembers the locations you have previously searched in.

Find Near Me uses a "local" database to store the search keywords and locations which you have entered into the application and retrieve/restore them back on next launch. We DONT access any of your personal files or transmit any out of your device. The File Access Permission is needed for Find Near Me to access this local database and retrieve/store values. This is perfectly safe and there are no privacy concerns around this. 2) How does Find Near Me find my location in case my Blackberry® PlaybookTM fails to access my GPS Location? Find Near Me uses your IP Address to find your location using a reliable IP to Location service. Please bear in mind that although this location isn't precise it's the only alternative in absence of the GPS Location. If your GPS position is way off, we suggest searching for your current locations address (Street name, City, Country) in the Search Locations view and add this location to your Search Locations. Find Near Me will use this location to display the results. Disclaimer: Find Near Me uses Google MapsTM API to plot locations and hence relies on the accuracy of the data provided by Google MapsTM.
