Google extended the feature include Check-Ins to Latitude iPhone App
Almost two weeks after adding Latitude check-ins for Android devices, Google extended the feature to the iPhone on Monday.
The option comes via an update to Latitude for the iPhone. "Now, you can also choose to check in at specific places, such as your favorite restaurant or a park, to add more context to your location," Greg Blevins, a Google software engineer, wrote in a blog post. "You'll be able to not only let friends know that you're just around the corner but also let them know the actual coffeeDell inspiron 6000 battery Dell inspiron 6400 Battery shop that you're at in case they want to join."
Those who opt to have Latitude continually update will also be "checked out" of locations when they leave, so "friends aren't left guessing" as to whether they're still there.
To start, tap the "Check in here" button on a specific location. Similar to rival service Foursquare, which has its "mayor" system, Latitude will award visitors with Regular, VIP, or Guru. The service launched earlier this month at SXSW, so there are over 60 check-in options in the Austin, Texas area.
The app is available for the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 and iPad running iOS 4.0 or higher, as well as the third- and fourth-generation iPod touch. Background location updating is only available for the iPhone and iPad.

Google Latitude for the iPhone hit the App Store in December. Latitude first launched in early 2009 via smartphones and a desktop widget, but since iOS did not support multitasking at the time, Latitude was only an HTML5 app, not a native app. The iOS "Latitude app was built from the ground up using iOS 4's new multitasking capability to support background updating," Google said last year.
