Welcome to Indie App Spotlight. This is a weekly 9to5Mac series where we showcase the latest apps in the indie app world. If you’re a developer and would like your app featured, get in contact.
Yumbox is an easy to use app that allows you to keep track of your favorite restaurants in your area. You can easily log all of your favorites, categorize them as you see fit, and then once you’re done – you’ll easily be able to filter all of your top picks.

With Yumbox, you can pick from all of your favorite restaurants in your area, then categorize them by your own personal rating, the price, category, type of cuisine, and whether or not they have plant-based offerings. Yumbox can pick up all of your nearby restaurants once you give it location access, so not much manual input is required.
Once you input your favorite spots, they’ll all be visible on a simple map view. From this map view, you can select filters, allowing you to narrow down your options. If you only want to go to a pizza spot, for example, you can filter for just pizza places.
Additionally, theres a separate Tinder-style card swiping view. This is an alternative way of sorting through all of your favorite spots, truly helping you zone in on what you want to eat.
There’s a fair bit of setup required to get all of your favorite spots in, but once you’re past that part, Yumbox is a powerful tool.
Yumbox is available for free on the App Store for iPhones running iOS 17.5 and later, with no in app purchases required.
