What's New In This Version:
New in 6.5.1:
Just to show how much we love our Yelpers, we're knocking out two big feature requests with this release:
☆ Apparently 300 characters per Tip wasn't enough for you to fully express yourself. We dig that. This release gives you 200 more.
☆ From the "More Reviews" list on iPhone, pull down to expose a review search box. Now you can skip the other stuff and find out exactly what people think about the "carne asada burrito" at that new Mexican spot down the street.

You can download Yelp from the App Store for free.
