Spots is an app that helps people meet up at a central location. Simply click to detect your current location, and/or enter addresses of your own/your friends'/other locations, then click a destination category. Spots will calculate the average point between your group and find the closest restaurant, bar or movie theatre. In addition, users can add new destinations to their own spots database, and the app's calculation will include the new ones. This is the back-end, it requires Spots front-end to run.
