Unable to check-in using Date

Please could you fix up this issue - unable to check-in using data . Check-in using WiFi works just fine. Is there some work around to this - pretty annoying that I cannot use this while travelling .
Crashes constantly
Pasta pasta
Crashes constantly on watch OS 6, and it's also very slow on the watch. Additionally the text always gets cut off on the watch making the name of places unable to be read.
Meh

For the most part it works just fine using the app on the iPhone but here lately the app on the Apple Watch has been acting up. It just sits “searching” for my location. I’m currently running WatchOS 6.0.1.
As a game, it’s pretty lame, and no support

I’ve been a long time user, but went away for a while sure to these problems, which have only gotten worse. Although I check in more than others, I've lost all mayorships I ever had and cannot get them back anywhere. When I look at my profile it says I have 7 mayorships, but when I look at what they are, it says I have none. And now this week, on Saturday I had over 2000 coin points for the week but come Sunday morning, I'm at zero, going from first place to last in my group of friends and every subsequent check in shows for a few seconds then goes back to zero. And what can you do with these coins anyway. They get you nothing; no discounts or perks with vendors or anything. I've reported mayorship thing, but it seems there isn't anyone at home at Swarm/Foursquare corporate anymore because there has been no response. Plus it's way too easy to game the system by checking into nearby things you aren't actuality at or while driving by. Don't expect much from this app. I used to have tons of my friends on here, mostly via Facebook, but I'm down to just 8 friends now and one is my wife. Not much of an app, game or useful system. Skip it.
New version
Me ~
I didn’t like the latest version, as it changed all the pages and too much to check every tab for each user. The old version is too easy to view the profiles and no need to open their profiles and then open check-ins. Hopefully, I can revise the old version!

Leader board reset

This is 3 time this week I have had leaders board reset and tell me my score is 0 and no coins for the week. Love checking in but need this to work to have fun
Malfunctioning

Each day instead of adding amounts for total coins, I'm only getting partial counts that begin new each day. No fun!
Points disappear
Julysgirl969
After many minimal response communications with Swarm, my points still disappear on a daily basis. No update available to fix the problem. No substantial communication with the app people either. This is usually a fun thing even with not a lot of friends just checking however now it’s “pointless” pun intended. But here I am still checking in to not lose my streaks or mayorships. I gave one star because the problem is being neglected as well as their customers.
