How to Delete My Foursquare Account Permanently

According to Wikipedia – Foursquare City Guide, commonly known as Foursquare, is a local search-and-discovery mobile app developed by Foursquare Labs Inc. The app provides personalized recommendations of places to go near a user’s current location based on users’ previous browsing history and check-in history.

Foursquare is an app that leads you to new and exciting places depending on your interest. It is also a great way to connect with friends and other people in the Foursquare community.

However, people may not use Foursquare as much as other social media sites. If you eventually come to realize that this app has no value to you, you can delete your account, which is easy to do.
