They’ve gone to a subscription model
I paid several quid for the app as well. Then it went free and now they’ve gone to a annual pricing model. The free download lets me only see cafes near me. Honestly haven’t used the app much but wanted to plan and get a recommendation for a place on the other side of town and it doesn’t work!

Refund?
Pretty sure I paid $5 for London's Best Coffee awhile back. Now it's free? Your change in pricing and in making users set up an account is annoying.
