I've been looking for an application like this for a while now. I had toyed with a few that simply didn't fit. Now I have an application that will help me plan kayaking trips, vacations, events, etc. Great work!
Instagram's search-by-geo-coordinates endpoint is one feature that makes the API so valuable and interesting...Other services have it, of course, but Instagram's version has higher value because geolocation is turned on by default...I read somewhere that maybe 2-5% of Tweets have geodata, whereas Instagram content is at 30 to 50%. The investigative newsroom ProPublica (disclosure: my former employer) had a fun use-ca…
Does ProPublica track these types of gatherings?
In Tokyo it's just pictures of food. I wonder if there was a way to detect pictures of food automatically so it could be filtered out.
Also, these results will be different at different times of day.

We need to develop a social norm that sharing something is not necessarily permission to publicize it. There's lots of contexts where it is probably fine, but I think there are also quite some contexts where it isn't so fine. I'm not trying to get up on a high horse and preach, it's just kind of gross to completely change the sort of attention that is being directed at something that someone shared. I know that some…
This has been the case long before Instagram and the Internet becoming mainstream, including the denial of requests for public government records and the photography of police actions on the purported concern for privacy.
I know you're only talking about social norms...but such things influence and are influenced by law and regulations...I'm just pointing out that it doesn't exist in a vacuum.
I like http://geophoto.grabeh.net/ for looking at photos around the world, but that may have something do with the fact I built it.

In a way this is kind of a workaround to the original Color app idea right? Not exactly the same, but color wanted you do be able to see photos of other people around you that weren't your friends, kind of the same concept, which is cool.
It also uses Instagram photos so there's already a ton of useful content, unlike Color's approach.
Wow, this is nicely done, very neat. Great job! Just out of curiosity, is this a native app? I really like the animations of the modal windows, I wonder how you made them so awesome!
Yes, it is a native ios app. For animations I used https://github.com/zrxq/UIView-EasingFunctions/
For animations, it's very important to use the right easing function to make it fit the feeling you want to evoke.
For instance, I used a keyframe animation for the login modal when you close it to not log in. It evokes a feeling of disappointment because it awkwardly swings down because you are not logging in :)
