Thanks, everyone. Yes, we get most of our info from FourSquare, so if that info is out of date, then we might be as well. We do have a way to add or delete content independently of FourSquare, but it's not a bad idea for a business owner to make sure their content is up-to-date on FourSquare. Also, individuals not associated with the business can make suggestions directly to FourSquare, such as businesses that have closed, etc. I am a FourSquare "Superuser" which means I can usually get content updated that an end user might not.
If they have a menu but FourSquare doesn't list it, they can contact us, as well as FourSquare to make it happen. There are several alternatives so we can discuss the options. It's a good idea to remind restaurants of their obligations under the Americans with Disabilities Act. It's not always practical to have Braille menus or have a waiter read the menu, including pricing, so an electronic menu lets them cater to the entire community. We also built the iOS version of All Access such that deaf users can build an order and touch a button to have it spoken out loud on their behalf. ---todd http://AllAccess.US On Thursday, November 20, 2014 12:28:56 AM UTC-5, Brian Fischler wrote: > > Hey Todd, > > Thanks so much for chiming in as it is always great to hear from the > developers of the app. Question for you as the other night I went with a > friend to Applebee’s.
