I recently posted that I may be slightly addicted to Foursquare, the social media game you play with your friends as well as gets you good deals and helps you discover your city. Well I think I may have taken my social game play to a whole new level.
A couple of days ago I got an email from my friend Ryan telling me about an app for his iPhone called Checkmate. With Checkmate, and $0.99 you can set your Foursquare check-ins on autopilot. You never even have to take your phone out of your pocket because Checkmate will automatically check in for you.
That’s awesome! However I don’t have an iPhone, and I don’t like paying for apps. That got me thinking though about apps for my Android, so I decided to hit up the Android Marketplace to look for a similar app that’s free.
Enter Mayor Monster Ninja! Not only is it free, but it supports check-in for Facebook Places as well as Foursquare! Double PWNAGE! Here is a description from the Marketplace:
MayorMonster makes you the NINJA of social world! :-)
Social places is 'where' we have the best fun! You want to share your place and be more social.Monsters will do check-ins on Foursquare and take over all mayorships for you! You can even use Facebook places and Ninja style check-in to any venue you like!
Browse venues, check-ins, auto-checkin history, add venues to your list, customize the service and wait for Monsters to take over venues for you...
- Monsters mode: does auto-check-in to list of venues you selected
- LocationSpy mode: does auto-check-in when you are close to venues you checked in before.
You can use any of these modes or both of them together, as you wish!
Key features:
- Foursquare places / check-in
- Facebook places / check-in
- Ninja style check-in
- AutoCheck-in by Monsters
Mayor Monster NINJA is fully integrated with Foursquare and Facebook places!
Is this cheating? Well, if by cheating you mean helpful, then yes! Do you use a similar app? Let us know what you think about this tool in the comments.
