Foursquare hits the 10 million users milestone; releases new version for iOS

Seeing that there are many handset owners out there are embracing location based social networking, it’s not all that surprising to see Foursquare hitting a new milestone recently – in fact, they smashed pass the 10,000,000 users mark.


In celebration, they’re releasing an update for their popular iOS app that brings forth some new features and enhancements to better improve the overall experience. Specifically, you can now expect to find a faster check-in process thanks to its even larger sized “Check In” button. Additionally, there is an improved Explore tab that aids you in finding special deals with certain locations. However, they’re actually retiring their standalone shout button – albeit, it’s still attached when you check-in to a place.

Naturally, iPhone owners will indeed benefit with this new software update, but Foursquare is also planning to roll out some new things with its Android and BlackBerry versions as well sometime down the road.
