Used to be good
Techno Shaman
Used to prefer this over the Yelp app, but it’s now fallen behind. The core design is still nice, but new venues show up on Yelp much sooner than they do in Foursquare (if at all). To make matters worse, the app has been throwing errors for some time when trying to add a venue manually, or edit a venue to make suggestions (such as when a venue has closed permanently, to add hours, a location, etc). These errors were reported to the Foursquare team almost five months ago and have still not been addressed. It really does feel like Foursquare’s pivot has left the original app on life support.
Poor UI
Nickname #8472
Difficult to navigate to the appropriate tools, as if they were hidden. Items that have just been entered become uneditable.
Won’t update a business address

I have requested MULTIPLE times to have my business address changed via the APP and it hasn’t happened. Not even a follow up email...nothing.
A shadow of former glory...

Up until about a week ago I always considered Foursquare a more functional & aesthetically pleasing alternative to Yelp, however, that ship has sailed with the removal of the “Expertise” system. Removal of the “Expertise” system did a handful of really detrimental things: removing the ability to easily know if a user was reliable, removing a great organizational system for your tips, & removing a fun sense of progression. This update really killed Foursquare for me, & that’s with it already lingering behind Yelp in terms of users & current data. TLDR: Foursquare lost a lot of functionality in a recent update. It’s not worthwhile & you should focus your energy & time on Yelp.
Can’t log in

Been a while sense I logged in. Tried to change my password, because it said I have to, yet didn’t get an email. Finally went through support and got the password changed, and now it’s making me do it again, as if I didn’t just changed my password....are we in the 1990s again?
Going downhill

I can no longer see reviewers’ expertise or even my own. What’s the point in reading tips if we can’t identify the expert reviewers?
Won’t open

I downloaded the app three different times. Each time I tried to open it, the app said “oops. Something went wrong.” and then tried to load but never did. I let it keep trying for several minutes but got nothing.
That did not work

I downloaded the program three times with the same results. The program starts and then a popup appears stating “Oops something went wrong” then a red circle starts rotating. The last time I tried to run the program when red circle started I placed the phone down on the table and checked it after one hour still circling then at two then three hours with the same thing going on. I then checked before going to bed still circling, got up in the morning and closed and removed the program as a lost cause. I’m now going to try something else to use with my Garmin RV780 for our travels.
