Alternatives Considered
Shortcuts Software
While Shortcuts has a more friendly UI, there are other vendors in the market that have developed their products in a way that suits user requirements from any industry. Shortcuts, in my opinion should look at expanding their use case to make it compatible for other industries as well

Vagro has lot of listing listing from nearby places and one can really walk up to the place using and understanding the map which can be very helpful in terms of getting into the spa or the saloon the best part is the timings and the payment feature that can be seen.
