Etsy lets you know where the local artisans are on your mobile

Etsy's finally bringing its Local service to mobile with its latest update. The online shopping platform for artisans can now help you find sellers in your area. This was previously only available through the browser. The feature on mobile shows you a map of your area dotted with Etsy sellers that are available, those who plan to sell in the future, or those who have sold in the recent past. It shows hours of operation, images of the available items, etc. These sellers can even add if they're part of any craft fairs or special events in the area. Retail members of Etsy Wholesale can even have their physical stores added to Etsy Local. 

The app can also recommend to you retailers based on your taste, previously visited shops, and those you liked or purchased from before. The app can even help you discover new places as well by letting you view the local boutiques that carry Etsy merchandise.
