I downloaded because of a Facebook ad targeting Charlotte, NC. I'm unable to change the location at the top, and enabling gps didn't help. I could use the map view if it had more than the top 10 trending things. We need on obvious toggle between map and list view. We need to be able to click the location at the to and change it. Will update review when it can be used where I live. I just moved here and this would be an incredible app.

Hi Jerrome - please make sure to update to version 2.3.2. Then you will be able to switch to Charlotte by pressing the location button at the top of the homescreen. It may read "Charleston, SC" or "Charlotte, NC" when you open the latest version of the app.

While cool, needs work. This app seems to have some very cool features and is definitely has a great user interface that makes it easy to see where everything is. However, it doesn't let me change my location (location is on). I live in Charlotte, NC, but has me locked into Charleston, SC. And unless I'm missing something, no way to change.

This is absolutely the most useful social app I've ever had because of the map. I can see what's happening nearby and make quick updates to inform people in the neighborhood about events, activities, crowds, food and drinks everyone needs to try and more. Love being on Whim. Plus you can share right to you Instagram story!
