Category search

Help your users search for specific types of places with Category Search. Sample use case: You are preparing for a long drive and would like to find nearby gas stations.

Use the following code snippet to try this in your app.

1let query = TTSearchQueryBuilder.create(withTerm: "parking")
2    .withCategory(true)
3    .withPosition(locationManager.lastLocation!.coordinate)
4    .build()
5search.search(with: query)

TTSearchQuery *query = [[[[TTSearchQueryBuilder createWithTerm:@"parking"] withCategory:YES] withPosition:self.locationManager.lastLocation.coordinate] build]
[self.search searchWithQuery:query];
