An update was released yesterday for the official foursquare Symbian app, but the results were, to say the least, underwhelming (the rash of angry one-star app reviews tells the story). Despite a video showing updated features coming to the platform, foursquare says this lackluster version is what Symbian users can expect, at least for the “near future.”
Luckily, a new third-party application for Symbian^3, 4squick, is in development. In just its second preview release, it already covers most of the features of the official app and more features are promised soon. Unlike the official app, it’s built in QT/QML, so it’s light and fast.
According to a post on the 4squick site, the new version (0.7175; released earlier today) brings the following changes from the initial release (which is featured in the video above):
- App startup time is now faster than ever
- Public/private check-in
- Share check-in to Facebook and Twitter
- Leaderboard
- User profiles
- Multiple bug fixes and minor details here, there and everywhere
If you’re on the Symbian^3 platform, give 4squick a try and let us know what you think in the comments. Following yesterday’s disappointing update, it appears 4squick should be just what the doctor ordered for many of you.
