Big Local App

The Big Local App is a mobile app developed for local communities. It is a dedicated local resource directory bringing together businesses, offers, local news, events and information to provide real value to users in a way that national directories do not.

This local directory will provide business listings for companies trading in their local areas.

Each featured business becomes an important facet of the app, bringing fresh, up-to-date information, that is often unique to the app: it's a great reason for users to keep exploring its content.

Explore:
- Up-to-date local headlines, council and tourist information
- Find local businesses, such as pubs, shops, restaurants, hotels and taxis - via a simple few taps
- Using your GPS, the app will also let you search by distance from your location and provide maps and directions
- Special offers

The areas currently live include:
Aberdeen
Bedford
Belfast
Bournemouth
Brighton and Hove
Bromley
Castle Point and Rochford
Coventry
Crawley and Horsham

    Update: loads. Lots of useful info. Average on useability. ....... Crashes on open on both my stock phone and my routed phone. Will try after an update and review accordingly.

    BLA is probably one of the most useful apps I have on my phone. I can search for local businesses, wherever I am in the country. I can also view any offers businesses have on. The feed ins from the BBC and local council info are so useful too. All it need
