A Bunch of Android Apps that Don't Suck - The Next Web
Calendar16 Thu, 08 Dec 2011 20:22:43 UTC +00:00
The days of a mobile device living or dying on the strength of its operating system are gone. Now, it’s all about the apps. An OS will make it pleasant to use those apps, and will probably give you a reason to use the device more, but the real value-add is the apps available in the device’s ecosystem. Apple’s iOS is undoubtedly the king when it comes to sheer volume of class-A apps. The list of marquee apps for the platform that are simply delightful to use is long. That’s not necessarily the case for Android, where the lower barrier-of-entry for app makers can at times be difficult to wade through the crap to find the gold. That’s why this list of ‘Android niceties‘ is welcome. It’s a Tumblr, shared by developers Steven Troughton Smith and Sam Steele on Twitter that I feel is pretty packed with good examples of Android apps that don’t suck. The list 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. Browser(s) Social networking apps Mobile office client RSS & News IM & VoIP Utilities There you have it. Hopefully you’ll find something useful here.

Find cool new places to hang out in your area, and see what your friends’ favorite haunts are with social network Gowalla. At its heart, Gowalla offers a wealth of information. It uses your location data to show you areas of interest in your city. Find a nearby theater or tourist attraction, for example, and you can see reviews from other users, its location on a map and its website. You can even check-in when you arrive there. Then you can share your check-in data with other users and post reviews about your experience. On tablets, Gowalla is easy to navigate and looks great, although the extra space of the tablet’s big screen isn’t used too effectively. That is, until you pull up photos users have posted from different locations – those look great on high-def screens. Another handy social network, Gowalla is great for planning a weekend or a night Read More

News by on Thursday September 22, 2011. Sponsored links, if any, appear in green. Location-based social network Gowalla has lived in the shadow of foursquare for most all of its two-plus year existence. Now the company is attempting to differentiate itself from foursquare by shying away from the check-in model and becoming more of a local guide application. Accompanying this shift in thinking are new apps for the iPhone and Android that embrace the new features in Gowalla. Gowalla is attempting to be more than just a place where you can see where your friends have checked in. The new redesign includes local travel guides comprised of recommendations from experts and suggestions from friends in your social graphs. Gowalla is calling these "Social Guides." The guides are being launched for 60 different cities today, as well as in theme parks and national parks thanks to partnerships with Disney and National Geographic. Read More
After resisting the check-in services as long as I could, I found myself gravitating to Gowalla. I immediately fell in love with the overall design with its clean, colorful graphics and easy-to-learn interface. The recently refreshed UI makes it a breeze to check-in, manage my account, track friends, and browse collected items. One of my favorite aspects in Gowalla comes in picking up items whenever I check in. Be it a pair of sneakers, a movie reel, or office stationary, it's fun to get a little reward for going out. I like leaving items behind for others to find almost as much as I enjoy reading the history of items in my pack. Aside from individual check-ins, Gowalla has created a number of trips for you completionist-types. Rather than hitting up one memorial at the park, see if you grab the entire series! While Gowalla can operate completely independently as a Read More
How I lost 100 lbs with Android – Android and Me
Calendar16 Fri, 20 May 2011 15:39:20 UTC +00:00
If you weren’t aware, Angie and I got married a couple of weeks ago. We had a long engagement (two years), which afforded me plenty of time to work on my pre-wedding goal: weight loss. And it was a tall order- I wanted to hit 200 lbs for the big day, a weight I hadn’t seen the underside of since middle school. A couple of years ago, at my heaviest, I weighed 305 lbs (if I’m being honest, it could have gone higher- that was just when I quit weighing myself). I was living with my brother, Taylor, and a friend from school and we didn’t have the best eating habits (to say the least). We ate out a lot and when we cooked for ourselves the menu consisted mostly of meat. I’d battled weight since childhood, but living wild with a couple of dudes pushed me over the edge. In Read More
With as many check-in apps as there are in the Android marketplace, they're starting to feel like a dime a dozen. Gowalla, though, has some unique features that make it worth a try. Gowalla is an app that allows you to share where you are at the moment, see where your friends like to go, and, in turn, learn about new places and fun things to do. First you download the app, create an account, and then start searching for the friends by linking the application with your Facebook and Twitter accounts. If you haven't gotten into the habit already, every time you leave your house or apartment, make note of where you end up, using Gowalla. A lot of these "spots" are already in the app's database, and they're places like restaurants, movie theaters, banks, concert venues, stadiums, the grocery store, parks, boutiques and hotels. If you venture to some Read More
With SXSW just around the corner, a slew of location-aware apps have pushed through updates on the Android Market. From Foursquare to Gowalla, the mobile war has got hyperlocal, searching for new ways to engage users anytime, anywhere. Entertainment and productivity apps also continue to gain traction, highlighting the real reasons behind our love for Android smartphones. Foursquare 3.0 hit the Android Market this week, with a new Explore tab for searching businesses by category. It’s part of an updated recommendation system, tracking your social activity and searches for improved suggestions. The free app is also incorporating “social good” badges, so your check-ins are worth even more. Rival Gowalla has also updated its Android app, making it easier to share your location and experiences with friends, in real time. A user interface update streamlines many of the social features of this free, local search app, making it easy to share photos Read More
Sure, you might have been using Gowalla for some time now to check in an show your friends where you're at and what you're up to. But you haven't really been using Gowalla until now. Gowalla 3 dropped this morning, and it's a completely overhauled experience. The activity feed's been redone. Leaving photos and comments is easier. Highlights are front and center. Twitter, Foursquare, Tumblr and Facebook are closer than ever. But the big change is the new passport view, which shows where you checked in last and can remind you to check in again if it's been a while. It's quite a spectacular change, actually. Check out all the details at Gowalla's blog, and we've got download links after the break. [Gowalla] Read More

Location-based check-ins are becoming the new “it” thing for a small subset of the population.  The two biggest names (for now) Foursquare and Gowalla have seen some impressive growth over the last year.  Foursquare has 4 million users up from merely 170,000 at the end of 2009 (source), and Gowalla has over 500,000 users (source).  There is also the lesser known SCVNGR who is really beginning to gain momentum of it’s own, which as of November had half a million members, though it was not confirmed how many were active users (source).  Each of these LBSN (Location Based Social Networks) has it’s own personality and options. Foursquare, has the largest number of users, offers Specials for either checking in, or if you are Mayor of a spot. Gowalla offers Pins, kind of like stamps in a passport; as well as Trips – a list of locations grouped together by either geographic Read More
Some of the most innovative brands have already begun to experiment with lesser known social platforms that cater to targeted audiences and test the waters of new advertising models. Many of these campaigns are pure trial-and-error efforts, and there certainly aren’t any one-size-fits-all solutions out there. At the Social Marketers Summit in Prague today, I spoke on 10 of the most intriguing, but lesser known, location-based, Q&A, press and microblogging social platforms out there and how more businesses can start using them.

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

We’ve been following Gowalla for some time now. And judging by the funding they’ve picked up and how quickly they are making progress we can’t be the only ones. For months now Gowalla has been available on Android via a webapp at m.gowalla.com. Starting today (just in time for SXSW) a full blown native app is available in the Android Market. Does the new app cut the mustard? Is it worth switching to? (Hint: yes, download it now). Gowalla is a location-based game that allows users to check in from various locations (or create the location if it doesn’t exist). Checking in at locations will give you a stamp and certain combinations of check-ins will unlock pins (icons with a silly theme/title). Along with locations (like restaurants, bars, retail locations, etc) there are trips, multi-location stops that earn you a pin. There are featured trips created by the Gowalla team and Read More
Before the end of February you’ll be able to grab the beta Gowalla Android Application from Android Market. For now, if you’re desperate to get going, TechCrunch has the details on how you can download the Beta .1 version of the socially empowering app (hint: download APK directly here or scan the barcode here). Gowalla is in direct competition with Foursquare, and if you’re not familiar with that application, why not just check out a quick demo of the iPhone version below: You could previously use Gowalla on Android through their mobile site but the native app is a nice surprise. Not only that but MG Siegler says the Android version is already better than the iPhone version for a few minor reasons – take that! Are you a Gowalla user? How does it compare to Foursquare in your opinion? Read More
Gowalla Android users can rejoice in the fact that Gowalla 1.0 is now available in the Android Market. Though a beta .apk has been circulating over the past few weeks, Gowalla released the official Android app for their check-in service just in time to duke it out with Foursquare at South by Southwest. Both Gowalla and Foursquare use “check-ins” as a social game for reviewing points of interest. Users open the app and see a list of nearby bars, clubs, businesses, restaurants, and other entertainment venues, then earn badges or pins by visiting those locations and checking-in via GPS. The resulting check-ins reveal a location’s popularity or virtues, thus making a city guide for socializing rather than social networking. The similarities between Foursquare and Gowalla pit them in a race for users and market share. Foursquare is currently winning, but Gowalla could potentially make this a more interesting fight among Android Read More
Skyhook Wireless today announced that Gowalla, the location-based social networking service, has added its Core Engine to its Android application for location results. Up until now, Gowalla officials have been disappointed with location-based apps on Android, but they say that’s changed. On the iPhone, Gowalla uses built-in Skyhook location data by default. While working on an app for Android, though, developers claim they noticed big performance differences compared to the app on the iPhone “Location-aware social networking apps cannot succeed without reliable positioning results,” Kate Imbach, vice president of marketing at Skyhook Wireless, said in a statement announcing the deal acquisition. “Gowalla’s disappointment with Android location is a common frustration that can only be resolved by integrating Skyhook.” Gowalla’s Android app is currently in beta and will be widely released to the public in March. Skyhook also offers a publicly available SDK for Android developers, available here. Meanwhile, in Austin last Read More
Gowalla Launches for Android
Calendar16 Thu, 25 Mar 2010 04:47:29 UTC +00:00
by The battle for social geolocation domination has expanded to Google’s Android platform, as Gowalla, the primary competitor to Foursquare, has just made its debut in Google’s Android app store. The new Gowalla 1.0 app isn’t some secondhand version of its iPhone counterpart — it’s completely packed with an array of features that allow you to check in to locations, view friends, access details about specific locations and check out your progress completion for trips (a Gowalla feature that lets you earn badges by checking into a set of locations). Essentially, the app is divided into four sections: Activity (a feed of your friend’s activity stream), Spots (where you find nearby locations to check in to), Trips (explained above) and Passport (your personal profile and list of achievements). Each section drills deeper, allowing you to add friends, view maps of specific locations (along with the number of checkins and people there) Read More

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

This new update/redesign is USELESS. Gowalla is no longer a Foursquare check in like service. I know Gowalla existed before FourSquare, but it's now completely useless. I want to see what's near me not EVENTS and LISTS or junk like that. It now takes many more steps to find a place to check in! This is utterly useless now. I'm uninstalling!

Version 4 is a huge improvement and a step in the right direction. It was arguably the most beautifully designed app in the Market before the update, and it's only become more impressive. The new update also seems to have greatly improved the performance - V3 took forever to check in for me, but V4 fixes this. Love the new group check in function, though there needs to be an option to disable the Facebook wall posts that accompany them. Overall: great update!

It was so great until 4.0 now it force closes constantly, I can't check in because all my spots are gone, I can't see anything in nearby, just cities hundreds and thousands of kms away... Totally illogical menu, unusable... I hope I can downgrade somehow, If not then I will have to use something else...

I really liked this app before they updated and also removed items. It seemed to really set itself apart from 4square in UI and practice. Now they are changing direction and going more "travel book" focused, which really is too bad. Everything they changed is what I liked and what they replaced it with can be found with a Google search, I have no interest in this anymore.

Update is not a smart move I don't understand Gowalla's decision. I used to love this app. There was Gowalla 3 which was perfect. I remember reviews which were all 5 stars and articles on other websites that were calling it "The best app on the Android market". This was only 7 month ago. Now Gowalla 4, I only see 1 star comments. I tried it, I hate it. Complete U-turn on what made Gowalla 3 the "best app". They say people don't use the item feature, but maybe if they improved its visibility, it might have helped. Switched to 4sq

Inexplicably killed most of its utility Used to be an interesting alternative/companion to Foursquare, but no more. Guides are now the focus, even if they hundreds of miles away or in another country, and any nearby spots have been hidden behind search. Checking-in has been replaced by a childish-sounding "story" concept, which takes longer to do the same task. Items, which were too rare, but added an interesting game, were removed due to no-one using them. And Foursquare integration is still broken weeks later despite promises to fix quickly.

I cant compare the UI since I have nothing to compare it to..but just registering an account was painful. If you want the Facebook login then fine..but provide other logins also, like Google, Yahoo, etc I will continue to play with this app to see if its worth using..if not, I will exile it to "The Land of Misfit Apps"

Useless I used to like this app, but for weeks now it only shows the same list of Disney World stuff no matter where I am in a 10 mile radius of that place.

Uninstalling after update (all platforms) I do NOT like the new app. It is very difficult to check in at my regular places that aren't part of their guides. Have to search for them, which adds several steps, when they show up at all. I enjoyed the items/pins which have disappeared, without even a chance to save/back them up… On my iPad, the app now crashes immediately.

Sad.. Always used Gowalla because it was an Austin based company. Recent changes make the choice between Gowalla and Foursquare very easy.

Pointless. Sorry. Don't see the point of this app anymore now that the user base has moved on. Nobody left to update or add local spots.

Gone I would delete the account but the ability to do that is missing from so-called version 4. Everyone that I knew has already left so I am leaving too.

Since the introduction of the new design Gowalla has practically become unusable. Never shows you the right current location, when Foursquare and Google Maps do.

Why did you ruin it? I really liked the old program, much more simple and straightforward. Quit trying to be a travel guide. Also app crashes if try to post a pic (2.3.5)

Dropping to 1 star With the loss of items in the game and reformulation of the app to be less of a game, I no longer get any enjoyment from this. On to Foursquare...

Still Don't Like New Update Update: after a few months, Gowalla still lost its appeal to me since its change. Its no fun anymore checking in to find items.
Brian 3.0 stars
Used to be great I have to agree with the others, I'm just not liking the recent change. Maybe I'm missing something but without the badges and ease of check ins....

Tragic Gott rid of everything that made people want to use it (pins, items). I used to do this & 4sq but now the choice is easy. I hope Disney jumps ship!

This used to be my favorite app. I wanted to like the new version, but this whole "stories" thing just isn't as fun as earning badges & finding items.

Fails to connect. What happened? While any other app runs fine, Gowalla will neither connect to its server, nor find any location? Worked fine until early September... Why kill yourself, why no rollback?

The app itself is nice... Too bad the actual service isn't what it used to be. Plus, the service is set to be shut down once the guys fully integrate into working for Facebook.
