Foursquare - Here Bar

The “Here Bar” exists on the Foursquare home screen, when you’re nearby a place. We wanted to create a quick way in the Foursquare app to get more details about a place when you’re physically there. When you’re on the home screen, this bar slides up from the tab bar.

I always liked the analogy of comparing this to how a few music apps (Spotify, Rdio, Apple Music, etc.) treat currently playing tracks, fixed at the bottom of the screen. This feature always made me feel like the app was more alive.

We shipped this around April 2016.
