How do I set my feed location?
Go to Settings. Choose to use your smartphone GPS location or set a manual location address. Manual location setting is handy when you are planning nights outside your phone location, like for vacations. Without a location setting you will see posts from everywhere! Not useful.
On the same page you can set the location range from 5-100 miles. For cities a lower range may be suitable. For the countryside a wider range is likely better.
What notifications does Nightly send to my device?
You may choose your notification settings on the Settings page. There are 4 selections: Establishments you follow; This Week (Tuesday); This Weekend (Friday); and Company Messages. Nightly works best with notifications.
How do I filter my post feed?
Top right on the Feeds page is the filter icon. Click to open and you will find choices under Region, Food Type and Establishment Type. Use this tool to narrow down your choices. This way you could, for example, select Vietnamese, Vegetarian and Clubs, and see only posts from establishments that cover those choices.
How do I use the Profile tab?
Click the Profile tab and you will see short profiles of all establishments in the order of joining. Click ‘More’ at the end of each short profile to get a large profile featuring descriptions, details, opening hours, closed days, and photos. Profiles can also be accessed from post headings. Profiles can also be filtered. For example, choose Italian restaurants and those are what you will see.
What is the Jobs tab about?
Nightly is aware of the struggles restaurants, bars, clubs and venues have in getting staff, both full time and part time. We encourage establishments to post job vacancies. We will market the Jobs section actively in your city.
What does Nightly cost?
Nightly is a free service for Users. For Establishments there is a Free Plan and a V.I.P. Plan. The Free Plan limits posting privileges. The V.I.P. Plan has unlimited postings and is very reasonably priced monthly subscription fee. Ads are limited.
Where is Nightly App supported?
Nightly App is being launched in Miami and South Florida in January, 2024. Our mission is to market Nightly App to establishments and users in South Florida in order to get a concentrated marketplace.
After a short period Nightly will be marketed to other cities. We do not expressly forbid downloads from anywhere. It’s just a question of marketing support. There is an advantage to being the first establishment in your city to join anyway.
Thanks for your time. Contact us if you have any further questions.
