Point Me
Compass that Points to the Nearest Liquor Store
PointMe does one thing: point you to the nearest liquor store. Just open the app and follow the compass. Inspired by a YouTube video from Uvos Lab, this started as a fun weekend idea and turned into a couple months of experimenting with maps, apis, and AI coding tools. Hope you enjoy it!

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 This is my first launch here. This started as a fun project I thought would take a weekend, it ended up taking a couple of months as I learned iOS development and experimented with different APIs and AI coding tools. The app has now reached 5,000+ downloads, which has been awesome to see. A few things I learned: * Building a reliable compass is surprisingly tricky, and most LLMs struggled with it * Google Maps' Places API was too expensive for this use case ($30/1000 requests), so I switched to Mapbox, which was about 100× cheaper * Cursor consistently outperformed Copilot on larger, multi-file changes * Having the model generate a markdown file mapping the execution flow made debugging much easier Thanks for checking it out! I'd love to hear any feedback or ideas. For other app developers, what's worked best for you when growing and marketing your apps? 🍻
