Foursquare 6.0 Released for iPhone

Foursquare today released a new version of its iPhone app that lets you instantly see what's nearby and puts search front and center.

Over 30 million people use Foursquare to make the most of where they are. Open up the app to discover and learn about great places nearby, search for what you’re craving, and get deals and tips along the way.

Best of all, Foursquare is personalized. With every check-in, tip, and like from you and your friends, we get even better at recommending great places for you to try. And, because the community has checked in over 3 billion times, we can show you the most-loved places in any city, even if it’s your first time visiting.


Features:
✓ Check in to remember and share the places you visit.

✓ Personalized recommendations get better the more you and your friends check in.

✓ Search for anything (from 'free wi-fi' to ‘nachos’) or browse food, nightlife, and more.

✓ Get directions, hours, menus, photos, and tips and tens of millions of places.

✓ Save money with specials at businesses you love.

✓ Discover insider tips and lists from local experts, brands, and celebrities.

What's New In This Version:
With the new Foursquare 6.0, we’ve crunched our billions of check-ins to instantly show you the most interesting things nearby. They’re insights that only Foursquare can deliver, the moment you open up the app. We also put search front-and-center, so you can find whatever you’re craving fast.

✓ Instantly see the best of what’s nearby. In Paris for the first time? We’ll show you the top sights and attractions, approved by local check-ins. In a familiar neighborhood? We can tell you about an up and coming restaurant that just opened up a few blocks away. Whether you’re near familiar stomping grounds or a tourist fresh off the plane, we show you the most interesting things nearby when you open Foursquare.

✓ Search is front-and-center! You can search Explore from the top of the app as soon as you open it up, so you can find what you’re craving even faster. Type what you’re looking for (like “dessert” or “park”), browse a type of place (like “Nightlife”), or tap “Best Nearby” to see our top picks in the area.



You can download Foursquare from the App Store for free.
