Multiple User Support

New Features:

• Added multiple user support. Now you can control a bunch of Foursquare accounts simply from one app. Hit your menu button from the main screen to change or add accounts.***
• Added option to hide the ongoing notification.

 Bug Fixes:

• Fixed the broken default visibility setting.
• Fixed the broken reminders issue.
• Generally improved loading times and stability. All caching is now done via local database instead of in memory.  This is better for almost every user.

 Other changes:

• Temporarily removed the venue prediction on main screen.

***The foursquare mobile login page doesn't play nicely with multiple accounts.  I'm working with them to get this simplified.  You may have to hit the log out button and exit the app to get this to work.  If you have trouble drop me an email and I'll help you with it.  support@checkinassistant.com

Support for Celebrities and Bug Fixes

Not much more to say than that.  I got a lot of great feedback very quickly after 2.0.3 and wanted to fix stuff quickly. You should see reminders work much better and those celebrity users can now share with followers.

So get the app here but leave your thoughts in the comments or on twitter.

Version 2.0.3 is now live in the Android Market

This might be primarily a bug fix release with a few changes users have been asking for.  I'm really hoping (fingers crossed) this handles the background crashing issue some users have been dealing with.  Please let me know in the comments if you have issues with this version.

Bug fixes:

• App closing silently when running in the background
• App not starting with the phone
• App crashing on first load.

New feature:

• Ongoing notification to tell you the app is still alive and how often it's updating.
• Is being more stable a feature?

Upcoming (halfway done stuff):

• Changing the distance to feet / yards instead of metric
• Better account management 
• Better sharing for "Celebrity" accounts

Check in Assistant is now live on the Android Market

Feedback is appreciated.  I'd really like to know how accurate the "Your Next Check-in" is for you.  tweet me at http://twitter.com/checkinasst 

Beta 6 - Now Predicting your Check-Ins

Only change - Added up to 2 venues to your main activity tab that you are most likely to be checking in to.

The algorithm for this was built overnight so I apologize if this version is buggier than the previous version.

If you don't want to set the predicted location as a favorite you can use the options menu on the edit settings page to directly check-in to that spot.

Beta 5 - I use this more than the real Foursquare app

Right where you would expect to find it: http://williamvanderhoef.com/checkinassistant/Beta5/CheckinAssistant.apk

Major Changes:
 Added Default Global Settings for distance to venue, time between check-in, and visibility


 Added Dynamic Location Update Timer.  This reduces power usage and improves location updates for devices without wifi or gps.
  Added ability to Directly Check-In from Venue Settings Activity.  Just click your options button from there to do a quick check-in.  This is great after you click on your nearby notification.

Minor Changes:
  Added image icons for all menus.
  Menu items to update location and refresh data separately.

Next Scheduled Changes:
  Josh will be building a few ways to Check-In without entering venue settings.
  The first secret feature!
