I was out last night with a friend who frequently uses UpNext on his iPhone. He expressed his enthusiam for the app but had some additional feature requests.

MY PLACES
My Places is found on the bottom of the home screen next to Categories. From there you have 5 options
1) Rated - see all the places you have rated
2) Favorites - see all the places you have favorited
3) Marked - see all the places you have marked (remember, bookmarks are private and not shared with the UpNext community)
4) Community - see the most favorited and highest rated venues based on the UpNext community. We aggregate everyone’s inputs and show the top places in each neighborhood.
5) Account - Here you have the ability to create an account, log into your account, log in with Facebook Connect
My Places is an easy way to bring up your favorite places and to see what other places UpNext users are talking about. If you use UpNext as your personal city guide, My Places is the best way to see those places you have been, want to go or need to share.
