Foursquare Update Adds Real-Time Recommendations

Foursquare rolled out a number of updates Wednesday that bring real-time recommendations to the service.

Now when you check in to a location you’ll be given recommendations on what to do there. For instance, the app might let you know people love the tomato soup, or tell you that the bar you’re in has half-priced beer from 3 to 6 p.m. everyday.

Real-time recommendations have been available for select Android Foursquare users for a while now, and will be gradually rolling out to iPhone users starting Wednesday.

Also in Wednesday’s update is a new Nearby tab so you can quickly toggle between friends located close to you and friends worldwide. Nearby was previously part of the “Happening Near You” section at the top of the screen, and showed you what friends might be in the area — but not where they were located.
