This is Pubzilla On The Go!
For editing pub data on the go, in the pub even with no signal. Enable location services and Pubzilla On The Go will track the nearest pubs to you and get their data ready for editing.
Edits are saved and pushed to WhatPub automatically, as long as there's a signal. If you don't have permission to edit a pub's entry, your suggested changes are emailed to the branch's committee.
You can also score beers while you're in the pub, and search for pubs that have been scored.
Version
Pubzilla On The Go is designed for use on a mobile phone or tablet.
You will need to have "location services" enabled on your device and must allow the browser and web page to use your location. Your location is only used to find the pubs nearest to you.
You can search for pubs in a specific town or give a Postcode District (give the exact town/Postcode or the first bit of it).
The list of pubs shown changes as you move around, but you can pin one to the list by clicking the pin at the top.
When you're in a pub and try a beer, you can give a beer score immediately. You can also report what beers are available on the bar that you haven't tried. You can see your recent scores, pubs nearby that have had recent scores, and pubs in a specific town that have recent scores. You can only score beers for breweries that are in CAMRA's Brewery Information System, and while you can score a beer that isn't listed these don't appear when viewing scores.
If you are a branch committee member, or are otherwise allowed to edit pub entries in Pubzilla, you can change the details of pubs you view in your branch. When you save your changes, they are uploaded as soon as your signal permits, and Pubzilla and WhatPub are updated immediately (unless the pub's entry in Pubzilla is in draft mode). If you're not an 'editor', then your updates are emailed to all the editors in the pub's branch area.
You can also take a photo of the pub. If you are allowed to edit the pub entry it will be added to the gallery, which is shown in WhatPub. If you are not an 'editor' then the photo will be emailed to the editors in the pub's branch area. Only upload photos that you own, and only if you are happy that CAMRA and anyone else can use them in any way they want without restriction.
