Snapchat today announced a partnership with restaurant review website The Infatuation to enable users to find local meals on Snap Map. The social media app adds a new map layer from The Infatuation to give users access to restaurant recommendations for places near them.
Users in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Austin, Seattle, Philadelphia, Miami, Atlanta, Denver, DC, and London can find the new layer in the upper right corner of the map and select Infatuation to start searching for restaurants near them. Once you find a restaurant you like, you can share it with your friends via chat or add it to your favorites to save it for later and come back to it when you're ready to make plans.
As part of the new partnership, users will now automatically see reviews of The Infatuation in venue profiles in more than 50 cities around the world.
Snapchat says that more than 250 million users turn to Snap Map every month to find out what their friends are doing. The company launched Layers on Snap Map last year to create a new way for users to find things to do with their friends. The corporate layers feature allows users to add data from selected Snap developer partners directly to their map so they can see the world in a specific view.
