This morning, Foursquare launched an updated version of its “Explore” feature for both its iPhone and Android applications. The new version brings over several of the features already available through Foursquare on the web, including filters, photos in search results and the ability to change your location. After updating your mobile app, you’ll see the improvements in the “Explore,” section, Foursquare’s local guide which is augmented by your friends’ recommendations and visits as well as other Foursquare users’ tips and comments. Like a mini local search engine, you can search for venues by category (“coffee,” “nightlife”), name, or even something very specific, like what  food you’re in the mood for (“tuna,” “burgers”). You can also tap “Specials” to see just those venues offering check-in or mayor discounts. Starting today, you’ll now be able to use the new filter button (at the top right on iOS or bottom right on Android) to Read More

Lately I’ve been asked which Android software I’m using so I directed a friend to “my 30 essential Android apps,” the post I wrote about two months ago. However, not everyone likes my list – they want something more structured. Then I prepared the “must-have Android apps” list which goes through different kinds of Android software, helping people decided what they need for what purpose. I went into details in that article and that’s also not that cool for everyone – so here’s something in between, a structured list of apps divided by categories.

What happens when an iPhone/Android app startup wants to get out of its Silicon Valley offices and into local communities to meet users, support local businesses, and see the country? A killer road trip transpires, of course. My Bizzy colleagues and I packed our bags and hit the road in a rented minivan this past July to drive cross-country from San Francisco to Boston. We hosted dinners and meet-ups in 16 cities along the way. In fact, we had such a great response that some of the team hit the road again in mid-September to travel from Portland, OR, to Seattle, WA. If you hit the road, be sure to have these apps on hand. Of course I'm going to include this.

Foursquare for Android updated with Lists

We have great news for you Foursquare for Android users out there. The location-based social networking app recently received a pretty cool update with the Lists feature to help share and discover collections of places, among a few other smaller tweaks. This news follows the company’s recent announcement of achieving a huge milestone, passing a cool one billion check-ins. The full new feature list includes: Honestly, adding the ability to connect a Twitter account within the app, and the access to sort out your friends by Nearby or Worldwide parameters were highly needed features. I was impressed with the new additions once I tried them last night, and I noticed the work Foursquare put behind collecting and communicating better “real-world experiences” for users.

Android devices are instantly gratifying gadgets of wonder. They give us directions, messages, a camera, endless music and live TV. They also give us access to our files, wherever we’ve stored them. From SugarSync to Cheetah Sync, Google + and Trend Micro, content syncing and backup is becoming a bonus perk for apps of every flavor. It was also a notable week for several top brand Android apps, including Foursquare, celebrating 1 billion check-ins with an updated app. As far as automated file syncing goes, SugarSync is one of the simplest solutions. An update to the Android app makes things even easier, with the Mobile Device Management feature. With this you can view and manage your content from the app, instead of merely accessing files. A new in-app text editor makes you more productive when it comes to editing and managing your files. Create new folders or text files to be Read More

Following the update to the iPhone version of foursquare from a couple of weeks ago, the location based social network has updated its Android client with many of the same features. With the latest update, Android users can check into events at specific locations, and enjoy some redesigned screens in the app that looks nicer and are easier to use. Much like the iPhone version of foursquare, the Android version will now present events to add to a check-in when users check in at movie theaters, music venues, and sports stadiums. Additionally, foursquare has added the in-line image previews for users' friend lists that debuted on the iPhone app a couple of versions back. Finally, the Android app has been given a bunch of updates to various screens that provide a fresh, modern look to the app. Read More
Not surprising at all, but we’re actually seeing yet another update to the Android Foursquare app. This time around, it boasts a that makes the process of navigating around the app much easier than before. Essentially sporting a cleaner look, you can quickly ‘check in’ to a specific area by simply tapping on the prominent button that’s now positioned at the top right of the interface – with tabs being spaced out to offer some balance between one another.

Android proves a promising crossroad for app developers expanding beyond iOS. Path has finally introduced its photo-sharing app to the Android Market with an open beta version.

Path, a California-based startup, has taken a different approach to mobile photo sharing. It’s all about privacy, limiting you to 50 of your nearest and dearest friends. The idea is to have a controlled sharing experience, initially restricting photo-sharing only within its app. Broader sharing capabilities for porting photos to Twitter has been added to the iOS version through an extra app called With, but this week’s Android launch is an early version with fewer features.

It’s snappier and reveals a few of the new features that will be making their way to the other official foursquare apps in the near future. The feature that stands out most is the display of recommended tips when you check in to a venue — whether they’re from your friends or not. Other foursquare apps have popped up tips from your friends after you check in, letting you know the things they recommend at the venue, but this update takes it one step further by showing popular tips from any user. And it doesn’t just show the most popular tip by number of times it’s been marked “I’ve done this,” but the one it thinks will be most helpful to you. It’s another step in foursquare’s move to become a crowd-sourced city guide — complete with recommendations — that’s Read More
by Safeway and PepsiCo are teaming up with Foursquare to reinvent the way grocery store shoppers think about location-based rewards and checkins. As part of the deal, Safeway has integrated Foursquare into its VonsClub loyalty program for a three-month pilot program that kicks off today. The crux of the program is that VonsClub members can now link their Foursquare accounts to unlock PepsiCo rewards every time they shop. Shoppers who link their accounts will earn instant Foursquare rewards on PepsiCo products — in the form of coupons printed at the register — at the time of sale. Rewards are also personalized to the user and tied to the types of badges a Foursquare user has already unlocked. The program is being tested at roughly 300 Vons grocery stores in southern California, as first reported by Fast Company. Foursquare and VonsClub members can optionally select to have the system automatically check them Read More

Requires Android 2.1 or higher. Beejive is another chat tool that's finally landed in the Android market. Greata for professionals, Beejive lets you log Read More

beejiveIM: Beejive, the best instant messaging app on those other smartphone platforms, has finally made its way to Android and though it costs 10 bucks, it's as nice and feature packed as IM clients go (it has a conversation drawer!). Beejive supports AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Google Talk and other clients while allowing file transfers between users as well. There are other free options available for Android so you may not want to drop $10, but Beejive is definitely worth thinking about, at least. Bloomberg: If you geek out on financial news and stock prices, you'll be thankful to know that Bloomberg has finally released an official Android application. It's been on the iPhone and Blackberry for a while now, but this version comes complete with two home screen widgets. I'm no business type myself, but it seems like Bloomberg hits all the black numbers and bidness coverage that the suits love. Read More
Popular check-in tool Foursquare has updated its Android app to sport a cleaner interface, with a new To-Do tab in the main navigation bar.  Friend information and requests have also been added to improve the Foursquare Android app. This follows a recently updated iPhone app for the location-based behemoth. Samsung Galaxy, the manufacturer’s Android tablet, will be hitting UK stores in November, taking sales across the pond.  The 7-inch tablet runs Android 2.2 Froyo, powered by a Cortex A8 1 GHz processor, and will be available through a number of varying priced packages in the UK market. The UK launch comes weeks after the GalaxyTab launched in the U.S., keeping aligned with global market release dates. The support for Android devices only strengthens Google’s efforts, particularly as the holiday season approaches. Determining expected sales around the plethora of smartphones and tablets this holiday season will be no easy task, but ChangeWave Read More
Foursquare’s Android app has often been criticized by users who want something closer to what’s available on that other platform. Those naysayers can finally pipe down because Foursquare has released a major update to its Android app. The new Foursquare has a more visually-appealing interface that looks smoother and less clunky. It has also added “Tips” and “To-Do” to the main navigation tabs. That will provide quick tips from friends and strangers when visiting a location, or allow users to check their To-Do of places they’d like to visit in a given area. I’m very pleased with the improvements because the Foursquare app wasn’t the greatest to use. I have always preferred Gowalla because their Android app performed so much better (for me at least) but the small portions of my friends who bother with location-based check-in apps have opted for Foursquare. Good to see the company is continuing to improve Read More
Foursquare 2.0 is now available for Android.

Foursquare’s updated their Android app today – just as they promised – and version 2.0 brings some nice features and a graphical upgrade. Functionality wise, you can look forward to accessing tips and to-dos from your Foursquare friends on the go – something that was only available on the website prior to today’s update. It gives read and write access so it effectively eliminates the need to ever sign back in to the Foursquare website (the only other reasons being to change account settings such as password, Twitter and Facebook links, etc.) As far as aesthetics go, they updated the tabbed interface for a cleaner look and to allow more space for the two new aforementioned features. Just below the tabs is a new rocker to switch between different views depending on which tab you’re in. Under friends, you can easily separate recent check-ins from nearby check-ins. Tips lets you switch Read More
Foursquare has quietly added a new feature to its website this afternoon that you won't want to miss: a new "add to my foursquare" button that can be embedded on any website. If you own a business or publish a web page about any real-world location, this very simple button will allow visitors to your website to add going to your location as a "to-do" item and receive a push-notification to their phones whenever they check-in anywhere nearby. This small button could deliver a substantial part of the promise of Foursquare - tying together our discoveries online with our experiences offline. The new feature was first seen and reported on by the watchdog blog AboutFoursquare and the Foursquare site has been experiencing unusual difficulties loading this afternoon. If it's struggling right now, imagine the load when these buttons are launching pop-ups for locations from web pages all around the internet. In Read More
Geocaching, the game of finding objects hidden around the world using a GPS device, is believed to have 5 million participants worldwide, according to leading commercial portal Geocaching.com. That company released a new geocaching app for Android this morning, with a price tag of $9.99. With more than 5 million participants, Geocaching.com calls the practice "the most popular location-based game on Earth." That's a number not for one particular company, but an estimate of all the geocaching participants across different platforms. Still, the game is typically thought of as a pretty nerdy pass-time, but it remains twice as big as the much hyped location startup Foursquare. Are we Foursquare fans missing out on something? While Foursquare in particular has garnered a huge amount of media attention, it is just one of many different types of location-based services. As a service based on social sharing of your location, it may be less Read More
A few weeks back we mentioned Vlingo for Android, which at the time was lowered in price from $9.99 down to free as a response to the Google Voice Actions for Android app. Of course, it seems as if Vlingo had the advantage at the time given their app works on more than Android 2.2 Froyo, however they have returned with yet another update and one that will make Foursquare users happy. Images courtesy: AppBrain “Location and social networking have become an integral part of consumers’ everyday lives — so having a strategic alliance with foursquare to provide users with a simple, easy way to connect with their friends is a natural fit for Vlingo,” said Hadley Harris, VP of Marketing at Vlingo. The new Foursquare integration comes with similar functionality as the other features. By that I mean, you speak a simple and short command and your phone reacts accordingly. Read More

What's next for 'check-in' apps? - CNN.com
Calendar16 Fri, 27 Aug 2010 00:00:00 UTC +00:00
(CNN) -- Seth Priebatsch was at a burrito joint in Boston recently when a message popped up on his smartphone from an app called SCVNGR. If he opened the foil on the burrito ever so carefully and turned the wrapper into a piece of origami art -- and if he uploaded a picture of his creation to the app, the note said, then he would earn points toward a free burrito. Priebatsch thought: That might be fun. "I made a really weak origami crane, because I'm no origami artist myself," he said, but "it got me closer to unlocking a free burrito, which was cool." SCVNGR, which Priebatsch helped create, is one of the latest apps to build on top of the idea of a "check-in," that emerging term some tech-savvy people use to describe the act of using a GPS-enabled smartphone to share their whereabouts with friends. Increasingly, app developers Read More
We’ve written about the social city and nightlife mobile app, buzzd, which pulls its data from Twitter and other buzzd users, for a bigger picture of the places that are hot in a given location. The startup just released an Android app in December and today is launching a new version of its iPhone and BlackBerry apps that integrates location-based services in the mix. The buzzd network compiles information from its base of over a half-million users, Twitter, and other real-time sources to provide users with activity updates for almost half a million venues across the United States, the U.K. and Canada. You download the app and it will bring up a list of venues close to you that are currently popular based on people talking about them on Twitter and Buzzd. And the app now aggregates over 500,000 check-ins per day from Twitter, Foursquare, Gowalla, Brightkite, Loopt, Yelp, Whrrl and Read More

Foursquare: Stalking your friends just became easier
Calendar16 Tue, 30 Mar 2010 02:30:02 UTC +00:00
Ahh, Foursquare. The craze that is sweeping the nation and most likely your Twitter timeline. It’s hard to distinguish whether Foursquare is a game or a social networking app, but when it comes down to it, it’s annoyingly addictive. Well, what is Foursquare exactly? Foursquare is a location based game that allows you to see where your friends are, likewise they will know where you are, you can earn badges for your travels and even become the Mayor of different locations and towns! At version 2010-03-23 (that’s seriously the version number), Foursquare is nearly bugless. Personally, I have no issues with the app. I have lots of fun on the days that I go out to multiple spots because not only does it annoy my Twitter followers, but I get points for every place that I stop! And if I add a new venue, I get 5 extra points! I know Read More

My profile, with activity To that end, Foursquare has released a new update featuring a completely refreshed user interface and new SXSW content just in time for the big show.

The friends tab holds a nice stream of all your friend’s activity, as well as a leader board (for just your friends or your Read More
Foursquare has updated its Android app as part of a multiple-OS refresh before the South by Southwest festival. But while the iPhone version of the app got a beautiful makeover last week, the Foursquare for Android app remains the blue-headed stepchild. The interface remains bland graphically and doesn’t include the easy access to Shout or Check-In like the iPhone version of the app. Foursquare has at least updated its Android app to include a direct “Friends” stream and a new “Me” tab. The previous version of Foursquare had only two tabs and would load a list of nearby locations to check-in; the new version goes directly to the tab revealing the activities of a user’s friends. Pressing the “Me” tab will reveal the user’s recent check-in history, and the “Nearby” tab has been replaced by the “Places” tab showing nearby locations (with check-ins, map, and tips). I’ve only been a Foursquare Read More
Foursquare, Gowalla Get the SxSW Bump – GigaOM
Calendar16 Thu, 25 Mar 2010 04:31:30 UTC +00:00
Geo-local services were the center of attention before the recently concluded South by South West, an annual gathering of folks from technology, music and movie worlds. With the pre-event hype dubbing the competition between the various players as geo-wars. It is not clear who really won the derby, one thing is for sure — all the hoopla helped Foursquare and Gowalla, the two major competing geo-location services snag tens of thousands of new subscribers following the event. Both companies had released updates to their apps ahead of the SxSW. Dennis Crowley, co-founder of New York City-based Foursquare said that during the five days of SxSW, his company signed up approximately 75,000 new subscribers. The company has signed up 100,000 new users over past 10 days he said. The company is now said to have over 600,000 users. Foursquare’s competitor, Austin-based Gowalla signed up tens of thousands of new subscribers, co-founder Josh Read More

New Version 2011-08-15 BLOWS It used to be you could startup in the locations view, check in, hit back arrow and checkin somewhere else right there (no load or refresh). NOW, they've borked it all up, so you start on some stupid "friends" screen and you have to manually click "checkin" at the top. THAT gives you the list you used to start at before, and after checkin, you click back arrow and go BACK to the friends screen. UGH! WTF man? Also stupid is it shows ME in the friends screen. I *know* where I am already, why r u telling me?
