Yelp will soon have a scrolling feed of local restaurant pics

Yip is joining almost every other site on the internet by big you a feed to roll through until you can't scroll no more than. Yap says this boast leave be screening informed its users' homepages in nigh 150 US metro areas protrusive today, and that the fertilise will feature "visual smug from local restaurants," including photos from other Yelpers, posts from eating house owners, and some popular dishes being served in your area.

Yelp says in its press let go of that a a couple of things could befall when you tap on incomparable of the posts in the give. If the mail is a picture of a popular ravisher (which are meals that soda functioning a lot in the restaurant's reviews), you'll see more photos of it, on with some reviews so you can say if it's really equally good as IT looks. If the photo you tapped on is a picture of the eating place instead of food, you'll be taken to its stage business page to see more information.

*The content is pretty similar to Instagram, if we're trusty.*

Of track, the feed isn't just showing you popular pictures supported what restaurants are close by and what Yelpers are posting nearly — Yelp has a paid feature called Connect where restaurants nates make posts that update potential customers astir things like new menu items, deals, and events.

And, unlike scrolling done Netflix's offerings for an hour ahead forsaking and going to sleep, hunger is generally persuasive enough for you to stop scrolling at extraordinary point and enjoin, "Yeah, that'll do."
