I am working on the design part of my app and I would like some clarification on how something works...there is an app in the app store called AroundMe and when that app is opened one of the first screens is a "categories" screen, so I select the "coffee shop" category and on the next screen I have a list of coffee shops with a google map on the top with pins of the locations around me.
What I am looking to understand is more about how the list of coffee shops is retrieved. To me it looks like all that data might be available from calling the google maps API, is that correct? Would I be able to get a list of all the coffee shops within 100 miles of my location, 1000 miles?
