If you are a local business, you should expect that your to see a drop off in Foursquare check-ins as the Foursquare officially drops the check-in feature from their app. Foursquare is dropping user’s ability to check-in, the feature that made the company famous. Instead, users will now have to download a second app in order to check-in.
In May, Foursquare announced it would be splitting their local functionality with their check-in functionality in a move many saw as transitioning Foursquare to be in line with other popular local apps such as Yelp.
Along with the change, Foursquare has introduced a brand new logo that looks nothing like their former familiar one.
Swarm still shows the old Foursquare logo as part of their own logo.
Here are the two versions – the one on the left is Foursquare alone, while the one on the right also has the Swarm app.
