I started noticing in Untappd for iOS (I'm pretty sure before the v2 update) that when checking into a beer and adding a location for foursquare, I now get a popup telling me I checked into foursquare, asking if I want to see it. Is this foursquare or Untappd sending this? I'd like it to stop.

Thanks.

    Ken,

    When you check-in via foursquare, they will push you a message which our intergration we have with the Connected Apps. It will tell you the top beers at the place you are currently at.

    Since you checked in via foursquare on Untappd - it does the same situation - but we have no control of detecting the the source of the check-in at this time. We hope to improve this later. There is no way to disable this without unlinking your foursquare account to Untappd.

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Cool. Thanks, Greg. Not sure why I even needed notifications for foursquare anyway. :)

    Ken,

    We're going to have to put off development at this time - but we're going to try to get this done near the end of the year. Thanks!

    No problem, Greg. Thanks for following up.

    Congratulations on your marriage! I just got married in June. We went to Maui and my sort if bachelor beers the night before were at the Maui Brewing Company. So good.
