If you are wondering what is going on at a particular event or location, a new iOS app Pixifly lets you search Instagram photos according to date, time and exact location, rather than relying on keywords or hashtags.

“Pixifly aggregates these photos to your specifications, giving new perspectives on what was happening on a certain day or what is happening right now,” said Adam Cooper, CEO of Pixifly. “It’s truly fascinating to see the types of photos people upload, especially when it’s those uploaded in the area around you in real-time.”

The app might be useful to journalists covering events in real-time and may be interesting to users who are wondering where to travel, dine or party (with access to photos from 100 feet to three miles away and going back in time up to eight months).
