Foursquare Android App Updated with Photos, Comments and Widgets

Posted on December 23, 2010 by Renji | Short URL: http://sumtips.com/?p=2428
Foursquare Android Photo Checkin

Foursquare has update its Android App today with two new heavily requested features: photos and comments.

After the update, the new photo feature will prompt you to attach a photo when you check in at a venue, similar to how you are now prompted for “shout.” Photos can also be added to tips and venues.

Photos you attach with your checkins are visible only to your friends and on the social networks you share your checkins on. As for photos associated with tips and venues, those are public and visible to all users.

With the new comments feature, you can now comment on your friends checkins. Comments are only visible with Foursquare friends. So, if you share a photo checkin with Facebook and Twitter, the photo and the checkin will be visible to everyone but the comments can only be seen by your friends who are logged in.

Along with those features another new feature is widgets, which is exclusive for Android users.

This feature adds two new home screen widgets. One allows faster checkins and the the other highlights the most recent activity from friends.

The update for BlackBerry users with photos and comments is scheduled for an early January 2011 release.

    It is always good to know whether the Android App Development Company has the ability to think upon an idea for an application or some design and they are capable of deploying that idea in the market. If the company is capable of creating the easy-to-use application and they have got the framework for that, then in that case you will sure have an advantage.
