About this app

Swarm is the best way to keep track of the places you go. From the new café downtown to that killer ramen spot in Tokyo, you’ll never ask “what was the name of that place?” again. Whether you love to be a local, or are trying to travel the globe, check-in so you can remember everywhere with Swarm.

This is lifelogging made easy. Each time you check-in we’ll add a pin your personal map so you can look back on the places you visit. Help out your future self by adding a photo or a note to your check-ins to make the memories all the better.

• Indian Restaurant? Check. Karaoke bar? Check. Haven’t been to an Art Museum yet? Now’s your chance to go somewhere new! Explore more and collect different types of places so you can keep track and remember your history. You’ll earn fun Stickers along the way.

• Whether it’s your 10th week in a row at the gym, first time to Canada, or the 25th time you’ve gotten ice cream with your BFF, the more you check-in, the more helpful insights you’ll get as you track your habits and explorations.

Keep up and meet up with friends. Share your location with a checkin and see friends nearby. A serendipitous checkin can help you find friends when you’re out and about and see who’s here.

•Don’t have any friends nearby? Not a problem! Not only is this app a great way to lifelog and remember for yourself, but to keep track of your friends’ adventures as well, no matter how far far away they are.

•Lifelog your adventures so your history is less questions, more remembering the good times.

*A note on battery. We’ve spent *years* developing the location technology that powers Foursquare Swarm, making it extremely power efficient. But, as with all apps of this type, continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Late in December 2024, this app became unusable when I'm running a VPN. All other apps work fine. I won't guess at what the developers are up to, but they did not respond to email. It seems my 40k+ check-ins don't count.

Having used Foursquare mostly because that's the only way to add new venues into Untappd, I'm slightly concerned about the consequences of the original app being mothballed. Can't fathom how to add new places into Swarm. That aside, it's a functional app doing a very old school thing without bells and whistles. Just got to keep remembering to use it.

Unable to Update the new store location 📍 Registered my business location in Foursquare in the year 2019 to show up in WhatsApp location. Now in 2025 shifted business store and unable to update. (Foursquare now Swarm) No Option to update the change of location! whatsapp is linking business location updated in Foursquare and does not recognize google location map! It is easier to send location in whatsapp messager. Now at crossroad⁉️ Want to edit updated location Not possible.
