Customer Reviews

Freezes (2 stars)
I've had this app for 8 months. It is better than the free app because it gives you more data. But it continuously freezes up and I go back to the free app. Mostly I only use this one to log my data.

Can't log in or find caches. (1 star)
Downloaded this app after hearing about it and wanting to get into geocaching. Upon download I tried to log in and the page just loads and loads and times out whether in 3G or WIFI. Tried to find caches "near me" and the same thing happened. The page just loads and loads and nothing ever happens. Very disappointing.

Update 4.6.0 (4 stars)
Love the app and use it all the time. However the latest update no longer shows my inventory of travel bugs or allows me to access my inventory when logging a cache. All I get is the following error code:

No Results
No Trackables were found.

This is of course incorrect.

I look forward to the quick fix. run26.2
