Official Foursquare app gets Windows Phone Tango certified but no overhaul for new service
The official Foursquare app still focuses on Check-ins
A few interesting tidbits about the official Square app for Windows Phone that yous may be interested in on this lazy Sunday. Fifty-fifty though nosotros swear by 4th & Mayor, some of y'all like the unique design of the Foursquare app even if information technology's a tad deadening by comparison.
Today the app has an update to version 2.11 which is certainly fairly minor but even so important. The offset i is that information technology now runs on devices with 256MB of RAM aka "Tango phones" like the Lumia 610. While less than 2% of the apps of the Marketplace are not-Tango optimized they tend to be some big titles (mostly Xbox LIVE games), and so it's squeamish to become that nod.
The 2d update is the more than vague "issues fixes" which will hopefully address some issues some of yous may have had recently.
Perhaps the bigger news (and non-surprising) is the official Foursquare app has not been update to the new "v.0" system like Android and iOS. Those apps were completely rebuilt and re-coded from the ground up with Bank check-ins losing their primary status for the service. That's right, near users plain weren't even using Foursquare for cheque-ins but rather recommendations of nearby locations.
Check-ins in the new Square have been sidelined as the service expands to exist more Yelp-ish with new features like Explore and Lists. Photos are as well more prominent now as users are more likely now to document their experiences. Of class the much superior 4th & Mayor app already has all of these features built in but with the more than original focus on cheque-ins.
No discussion on if Foursquare will bother scrapping and re-doing the electric current Windows Telephone app to reflect these new changes. Our bet is they'll wait till Windows Phone viii comes out to release the overhaul.
Selection upwardly the official Foursquare app here in the Windows Telephone Marketplace. Users tin can too grab the free 3rd party version, 4th & Mayor here instead. Thank you, Brian, for the heads upward
