1. A method, implemented by one or more processors, comprising:
- detecting a selection of a point of interest category from among a plurality of point of interest categories on a mobile device;
responsively to detecting the selection of the point of interest category and using at least one processor, automatically associating the point of interest category with a plurality of user-selected point of interest categories;
determining a location of the mobile device;
determining a point of interest associated with the point of interest category and the location; and
displaying point of interest data associated with the point of interest.

Abstract
A system and associated method receives a command from a user'"'"'s mobile device to locate points of interest near the mobile device'"'"'s location. The points of interest are associated with different, user-identified, point of interest categories. Based at least in part on the mobile device'"'"'s location, the system substantially simultaneously provides a list of points of interest for at least some of the point of interest categories.

8. A mobile device comprising:
-
a memory comprising computer instructions; a processor coupled to the memory, wherein, when executing the computer instructions, the processor is configured to; detect a selection of a point of interest category from among a plurality of point of interest categories, responsive to detecting the selection of the point of interest category, associate the point of interest category with a plurality of user-selected point of interest categories, determine a location of the mobile device, determine a point of interest associated with the point of interest category and the location, and determine point of interest data associated with the point of interest; and a display configured to display the point of interest data. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
