Locality
In Glymp, a locality is a defined neighbourhood, such as Bandra, Juhu or Andheri West. Glymp organises what you see by locality: the Spots, stores, events, groups and GlympGo stops around you, so everything is relevant to where you are.
The locality is the basic unit of Glymp's geography. Glymp is rolling out neighbourhood by neighbourhood in Mumbai: each locality gets its own Spots, business listings and community of users. This is intentional: a Spot in Bandra is pinned in Bandra and found by people who live or spend time there, which keeps the content relevant to anyone in or around that area.
Location matters on Glymp in a few specific places: a Spot is pinned to where it was found, a check-in happens at the store, and a GlympGo item is collected in person at the counter. Each of these only works when you are actually there.
