The long awaited 1.2.1 is now live!

In addition to all the goodies I was talking about in the previous post there will be a few unannounced features in this release.

New Feature #1:  Facebook and Twitter
     As mentioned yesterday you may now share your check-ins on Twitter and Facebook.  Both of these are disabled by default on any new favorite just like the "Share with Friends" option.  I don't want any stories of spoiled surprise parties being my application's fault.

New Feature #2:  SSL Encryption
     Not much more to say about that.  Foursquare takes privacy seriously and @naveen is my hero so what he says goes.  I'll add OAuth in a future release but this is much more secure than before.

New Feature #3:  High Resolution Images
     The images are now much larger and clearer than before.  Yay!

New Feature #4:  It doesn't have any issues connecting to Foursquare
     Not really a feature but if you'd like to rethink that 1 star rating I'd be a very happy code monkey.

  1. No love for "Checkin Assistant cannot connect to FourSquare. Try again later" issue. Have verified correct username (email) and password. Have tried using phone numb as username. Error remains.

    Glad to see the contact link added to main screen, but layout is broken...link and lable overlay the connect button. Button and link both still work, just have to be careful selecting.

  2. I am unable to find the app in the Android Market I am in Ireland if that helps

    Do you have a link to the apk if that is possible

  3. I was able to login without a problem. The only issue i have is the performance. This application is a bit slow.

    Keep the updates coming!
