WP7 Connect App of the Week: 4th & Mayor (Foursquare)
July 15, 2011 No Comments
With the huge overhaul that came to every one’s favorite Foursquare client – 4th &Mayor is the WP7 Connect App of the week. The new layout and design look clean and very Metro UI. It’s alot faster and even though the official Foursquare app came back to the WP7 marketplace with a new look as well, I still prefer 4th & Mayor for my checking in needs. Here is a list of all the changes made to the app recently…
- Accurate location reporting more often
- More responsive
- Replaces the Places pivot page with a dedicated Check In button and experience
- Lets you add photos to check-ins
