new in v2.2:
✓now you can use PlaceTrack to check in to Foursquare and Facebook!
✓latitude contacts‘ location are shown again (inside an embedded web view)
✓distance information on detail views and friend list
✓minor cosmetic changes
☂fixed a bug where PlaceTrack could log you off from Latitude when the app restarts in the background on passlocked devices (please re-login for this to take effect)
☂fixed a bug where PlaceTrack crashes on iOS version earlier than iOS5
new in v2.0:
✓Foursquare and Facebook support: your friends checkins are now displayed on map!
✓StreetView and Maps available from contact detail view
✓Foursquare photos available from contact detail view
✓uses the official Latitude API, authentication and authorization flow is based on OAuth2 (and 2-step verification is ok)
✓minor bug fixes and improvements
PS: Latitude friends’ locations are not natively displayed because the official Latitude API does not allow third party applications to use this functionality (and undocumented stuff no longer works)

PlaceTrack 2.0 now available in the App Store
This version uses the official Latitude API, can update your location and has some interesting new features: friends location through Foursquare and Facebook checkins, Street View, OAuth (2-step verification now works). It cannot display Latitude friends locations due to Latitude API limitations though.
