Our right hand until recently.

We have used this all over the world to locate caches and it has been excellent since 2014. However recently we have had problems and had to reinstall the app. This maybe due to the age of my iPad but now I have adverts with the map. Still good compared to anything else we have tried.

Poor

Another terrible update. Map movement is slow or unresponsive. Side buttons no longer work ! Why is this not tested before release. ?? Will revert back to old version again ! Sort it out !

Brilliant app

I love it, only thing missing for me would be the ability to search for a place name. Thanks

Recent upgrade broke this app

I have been using this app for over a year, but the latest upgrade has broken it. The database keeps corrupting, and loosing my settings, downloaded maps and downloaded caches. Can you fix this please.

Disabled by Apple

Got message after installing you need to sign in, if you sign up Apple gives a messages saying app uses a buying fee sub that is denuded by Apple

Not as good as it used to be...

I used to use this app all the time before I got a gps, and just downloaded it for my dad to introduce him to geocaching. However, the app no longer seems to track his location. We had downloaded the caches at home so he could see them on the map, but it wasn't tracking him at all while we were walking. We checked all his settings and tried all the tracker options, but it was miles out. Don't know what's happened to it but it's quite useless now. :(

Broken

Since update will not load any maps...thus useless app. Will look for an alternative till a fix is released.

Pretty good

Ruined!!

Used to be the best app for geocaching by a mile! Since the last update it won't work! Won't even load up a map! Fix it asap!

Unintuitive and clunky

Works but is unintuitive. For example some buttons do not have sufficient text to explain what they do. Probably ok to use with a manual and practice.
