RangeBites
RangeBites is a food app for nearby restaurants and deals. It is not finance, trading, or RangeBits.
Five differentiators
- Find food near you — we don’t store it as a location history or profile.
- See what’s nearby and what’s worth paying for.
- Your radius. Your call. (10–50 mi)
- Deals you keep. Pins we label. (never skim the coupon)
- Quiet Precision. (slate; amber only on deals)
Flow: Locate → nearby food → navigate. Tap Locate Me. OpenStreetMap places load from Overpass. Hand off to Maps or the merchant. We don’t sell your personal data.
Food near you. Set the range. · See the deal. Then go.
Location
When-in-use only. Location powers search for this moment. We don’t store GPS as a location history or profile. Coordinates stay in memory for the current search only. This device may remember range, filters, and last city/zip text. Leave or close the page → in-memory location and places clear. Brief backgrounding (app switch, Maps, location prompt) does not wipe.
Your browser talks to OpenStreetMap Overpass and tiles through a same-origin proxy (plus a public Overpass fallback). City/zip search uses Nominatim via proxy. Coordinates are not stored. No profile built by us. No account required for core search.
What we don’t keep on our side
- Location history or profiles on our side
- An account just to browse nearby food
- Reservation details
- A personal identity log of deals you viewed
- lat/lng, place lists, or location history on this device or our side
This device may remember range, filters, last city/zip text, and onboarding in on-device prefs (localStorage key rb_ui_prefs). Coordinates and place lists are not stored. Waitlist emails are not collected on this host.
Product analytics
Optional product analytics. No Amplitude key — events stay in a memory queue only (nothing sent).
Deals & Sponsored
Offers appear only when a listing tags a promo. Not live Honey scrapes. We don’t invent coupons. Confirm with the restaurant. CTA is Open deal.
Sponsored pins are labeled. Always. Up to 1–2 Sponsored badges (labeled honesty markers).
We may earn a commission when you tap through. You keep the deal.
Reviews & booking
Reviews — current on Google Maps. We don’t store ratings. Tap Current reviews on Google Maps for what’s live. If OpenStreetMap has a stars tag we show it with a warning that it may be old — not a live RangeBites score. We don’t invent stars. Google’s policy applies.
Safety
Information only — not a safety or emergency service. Use your judgment.
As-is
Listings, maps, and deals can be wrong. Third-party sites you open are their responsibility.
