The voice-to-text app Vlingo has recently added function commands that allow for voice check-in on the location app Foursquare. In addition, Vlingo allows for a social update which simultaneously posts to Foursquare, Twitter, and Facebook; or in any configuration your choose.
So, how does it work? Quite simply. By just speaking into your Android device, you can use your voice to launch foursquare and:
- Check in  to locations
- Check in Hong Kong Express
- Check into Logan Airport
- Locate friends
- Where are my friends?
- Who’s nearby
- Send shout outs
- Shout headed to Fenway for the Sox game
- foursquare shout at Starbucks grabbing a latte
You can check out the demo video below
I like the idea of voice commands, but I still find it only works for me about 60% of the time. How about you guys?
If you want to give Vlingo a try, it’s free on Android Market. You can download it from your Android phone by clicking HERE, or scan the code below.
