Thebig ugly Foursquare Radar updatethat accompany iOS 5 — bringing constant location trailing and societal tenseness to the app — has been touch on . Mostly . Although the friend alienation problem persist , you ’ll no longer get inhume beneath horribly pestering notifications .

Before the update , Radar would ping you with evoke checkins — like a sandwich stick you ’ve checked into before . Except it did n’t lick at all , and , at least in impenetrable urban areas , would hurl tens upon tens of suggestions at you simultaneously . It was overburden to the point of shortcoming , and I suggest just turning it off exclusively .
Now , Radar wo n’t shout at you like some coffee berry shop class - urge homeless man . It ’s much , much less raw , tossing you a notification when you ’re near a smear on a lean you follow or a piazza you ’ve note down for later . It ’ll also simply suggest things with reduced oftenness , so you may actually read one top before another lands on you . The societal minefield ’s still out there ( why not make that a disjoined pick in Radar ? ) , but it ’s courteous to see Foursquare fix this so quickly . [ Foursquare ]
