Earlier today, BlackBerry® became the first place to find Foursquare Explore, a new feature that allows customers to find all of the best places nearby without having to sign-up or sign in.
Customers will now be able to search for all of the best places nearby with photos, tips, hours of operation, and menus — features that were previously only available to Foursquare account holders.
With more than three billion check-ins and 30 million tips, Foursquare can put forth recommendations based on what’s popular in the neighborhood, where the experts go, the time of day, and more.
Foursquare becomes even more powerful once a customer signs up for Foursquare and begins to check-in. Customers that have signed-in can enjoy a more customized experience based on what they like, where their friends have been, compete for mayorships and badges, as well as enjoy money-saving specials and discounts.
RIM has been working closely with Foursquare to provide customers with a quick and convenient way to start searching for places immediately.
Foursquare with Logged-Out Explore can be downloaded today for any BlackBerry smartphone running BlackBerry OS 5 or higher.
