Bandar Lampung city is one of the cities in Lampung Province and is the capital city of Lampung Province. In Bandar Lampung city, there are still locations such as tourist objects, hospitals, hotels / inns, education (high schools/ vocational schools / university), restaurants, and malls / traditional markets that have not beeb explored so that many local and non-local tourists do not know the location. Thus, the author designed an android-based application that is the profile of Bandar Lampung city (Probal) which aims to help or facilitate the people of Bandar Lampung city and tourists who come from various regions to simplify finding the locations in of Bandar Lampung city by using location based service (LBS) method. Keywords. Bandar Lampung city, Location Based Service, Android. 1. Introduction Lampung is a province located on the southern tip of the island of Sumatra Indonesia, its capital is located in Bandar Lampung in the north bordering Bengkulu and South Sumatra and has an area of 35,587 km2. Lampung Province has 13 regencies and 2 cities, one of which is Bandar Lampung City. 1.1 Background The development of information technology is now rapidly entering various fields; so many new technologies are emerging especially in the world of IT.
