Yik-Yak was briefly entertaining in a "wow so that's what kids are talking about these days" way, but with no focus it was kind of vapid.
Another geolocated thing that briefly existed was Google+ - at one point and only on mobile if you stopped the screen to the right there was a "Nearby" listing that showed public posts within some geographic radius that was never quite clear.

I remember using it on the Google maps app for WinCE (which was also a very good app at the time, people forget)... > When the service was accessed with a supported mobile device, Buzz tagged posts with the user's current location. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Buzz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Buzz
