> But, thankfully, they seem to have ended their partnership with Yelp.

I’m not so sure about this. Tapping around to some random businesses around me, I see photos being pulled in from Yelp, OpenTable, and Foursquare.

When I try to view the photos full screen, OpenTable and Foursquare images work seamlessly. Yelp prompts for an app download to jump me over to their world, which is a horrible user experience.

Friends don't let friends support Yelp. Hopefully that's all just cruft. Apple used to get things like open hours from Yelp, but now they have their own, complicated, Apple ID location that I never remember to update and have to go through typical Apple ID machinations to use.

I just opened maps and took a look. Kinda shocking to me that there doesn’t appear to be an obvious or easy way to add POI data. Google Maps is huge on promoting users to supply UGC.
