What's New In This Version:
New in 6.5:
☆ We gave our iPad business page a whole lot of love. It's now more streamline and clear, with more emphasis on business photos. In addition, we're now showing Yelp Deals and our new "Explore the Menu" feature.
☆ Yelp search just got more social: Now you can see which friends are checked in to businesses directly from your search results.
☆ Getting to a restaurant just after closing is a major bummer. Now we'll indicate if a business will be closing soon or is just about to open.
☆ We also got in a TON of bug fixes and enhancements: showing your review first in the reviews list, supporting updated reviews on iPad, swipe-able photos on the business page, and huge speed improvements on iPhone5!
