Yelp, the online service which contains crowd-sourced reviews about local businesses, has now updated its popular iOS application with support for the upcoming Apple Watch. The latest 9.7.1 version brings support for Apple's first wearable device, so you will be able to use it on your wrist. Here's what you can do with the Yelp app on your Apple Watch:

Find the best nearby restaurants, bars, coffee & tea, and other hot and new businesses
Look up addresses, directions, today's hours, and read authentic reviews written by a community of local experts
Using the power of Handoff, you can easily jump from your watch to your iPhone to place a phone call, add a review, take a photo or video, or check in to the business

You will be able to see customer reviews and ratings as a scrollable onscreen text and with Handoff, users can jump on iPhone to add reviews, take photos or make a call. Also, if you want to check in to a business, you will need to have an iPhone for that.
