Foursquare issues maintenance release with bug fixes
Good deal, I was going to say I've been having issues with the checkin results not showing up on my device. Way to jump on it foursquare!
nice, upgraded
this link doesn't work on my BB 9700
a long error message appear ... :(
I'll give this one a few days to simmer before I make the jump, since there is no simple way of going back at this point.
I installed, rebooted, but now homescreen icon won't launch app. Not even an error msg. All permissions set to Allow. Have no idea why the app won't launch?! Downgrading back to previous version.
BB 9650 OS 6.0.0.466
I've been using SocialScope to check-in on Foursquare (and Twitter and Facebook) for the past few weeks, and I'm honestly thinking about keeping it and not bother with the Foursquare update...at least for now, since SocialScope is still in beta. I always know who's checking in on Foursquare when and where, with no functionality lost.
still bug on add a new venue, in fact is impossibile to add it, please check this.
Still show map instead picture when i shared on FB.
I can't even log in on the new version. Back to previous. And yes I know my password. 8530
I'm have the same login issue on my 9700.
