Valentine’s Day: A Last-Minute Smart Phone App Guide

Android

Love Poems
Free
The “poetry” submitted in the Love Poems (developed by Swiss Codemonekys) app reads like a collection of Hallmark Valentine’s Day messages that didn’t make it. Some are sappy, some are weird, some are cringe-worthy and some are okay, but, if you’re looking for a poem for your date this year, Love Poems isn’t a bad place to look for ideas or to assemble your own Frankenstein ode to devotion.

Yelp
Free
You can’t go wrong with this power site of user-rated restaurants, bars, and nightspot venues. Download the app and search for spots catering to woo-filled Valentine’s Day patrons near you.
