Are you an avid Foursquare user who still uses Foursquare's iOS app which Foursquare calls City Guide? Well, if you still are and would like to create a conglomerated list of grouped listings, but think there's no feature - you can be assure that there still is a way to create these types of custom lists - if you know where to look.

Steps

  1. 1
    Open and log into the Foursquare app. The app is pinkish-red and has an F on the face of it, that dithers to a pinpoint at the bottom. If "purchased" for free in the AppStore, it calls itself "Foursquare City Guide" now but operates with their same database.
  2. 2
    Tap the "Lists" tab on the bottom of the screen. You should find this tab to the right of the Search tab which should have opened by default.

  3. 3
    Look for an area called "Lists You Created". It may have a number standing for the total custom lists you've created next to it in parentheticals. This is where you'll find this option to create one.
  4. 4
    Tap the "Create a new list" with the plus sign above it.
  5. 5
    Type the list details. You'll need to select at least a "List Name". List Name is the only one that's mandatory to create a custom list of your own. Although not case-sensitive, it's best to use proper case which makes things stand out standard across your entire account.
    • You can also describe why this list is/was created in the "Description box" and set the switch to either make this board (followable) by others (Foursquare uses the term "Collaborative") or not.
  6. 6
    Tap the "Create List".
  7. 7
    Add places to the list. Tap the + Add Places button, search for the item and tap the + sign to the right of the listing. Ensure though, that the address and name match the listing you'd want to add to this list.
