Footprint History has been replaced

We're excited to introduce Footprint Feed. Due to the the changes in the way social networks are becoming more focused on the feed and changes enforced by Facebook with regards to applications no longer having access to the profile page, we've decided to replace Footprint History with a new application Footprint Feed.

Thanks for all the support from our loyal fans over the last 2 years, we really hope you like our new application.
