In commemoration of my first full day with an iPhone6 (today), we are going to talk about a pretty cool feature that just arrived on the iPhone – the one tap checkin.
If you have the swarm app on your iPhone (get it here), you swipe down to get your notifications, and in the Today tab, you go to the bottom and hit edit.
You will see various widgets that you can add to your today notifications. Select Swarm and hold it down to position it (I put it on top). Then save.
Then when you want to check in, you just swipe down to get your notifications and you will see something that looks like this:
Then you can tap the checkin icon and you are checked in.
I just did this and checked into the Kava Cafe. It works like a charm.
As you can see Swarm will also tell you where your nearby friends are in the notifications timeline.
All in all, a super cool feature. I will be using it a lot.
