  1. Never noticed those before. Probably because they are almost invisible.
  2. Long before Cachly I got used to 'my note' showing up in the description on my GPSr. I don't know where else on the Garmin it would go. Since it's a searchable field in iCaching I find it invaluable.
  3. I like to use iCaching to create gpx files for uploading into Cachly. Anything in the 'my note' section of iCaching shows up in the description on Cachly (and also on my GPSr). However, when I update that offline list in Cachly my notes are overwritten in the process. Will v 2.1 merge the description instead of overwriting it?
  4. Okay, I'll be the kid in the class that asks the stoopid question: How and/or where is a URL scheme used?
  5. I'm also okay with either, but if the little frowny and smiley faces are possible (rather than just colors) I could vote for those.
  6. I also like the red and green dots. It's intuitive.
  7. Depending on circumstances I have used all four. That covers every situation for me. Regarding a toggle between 'Save as Log' and 'Save as Field Note', isn't that exactly what it does now? (When combined with the 'Send Now' option.)
  8. I have a number of "saved locations" not tied to any specific caches. They show up on my "more" screen. Handy for parking coords or trailheads that support a number of caches.
  9. Press the little gear icon in the search bar above the map!
  10. As long as the 'Add Coordinate to Log' option is on the log screen, then it makes sense to default to the current coords. That being said, I'm not convinced that the iPhone necessarily has accurate enough coords* to influence future cachers with another set of coords, especially in the woods. The only time I've added coords to a log is when I've taken a series of averaged coords with a real GPSr. *Every time I go caching now and can't find the cache right off, I begin to wonder if the posted coords were taken using a phone. Just yesterday I talked with a newbie cacher who's first cache was 1,000 feet from GZ. Yikes!
  11. I use it to send answers to virtuals and earthcaches, but that's about it. When it first debuted some friends never know I sent them a message.
  12. That's interesting. In the old days one could search the website for archived caches, but not any longer. I wonder why gc.com removed that ability.
  13. The reviewers handle letterbox-hybrids the same as mystery caches. They know where the final is, and if one tries to hide a cache within 528 feet the reviewer will send back a note saying your location is too close to another cache, but they won't tell you where it is.
  14. I've noticed that also. If I manipulate the map until the 'just found' cache is off the screen, then I can properly select the next cache.
  15. I have the California map downloaded, but it's considerably slower than the online maps so I only plan to use it when I don't have a data connection. It might be due to the size of California and/or my old phone (5s 16GB).
  16. Okay. Forget what I said. I recreated the file and tried it again and the waypoint is there. Sorry for my confusion. It shows up under the cache waypoint tab and I was expecting it under the user tab. At first I didn't recognize it since it has no name, and I don't see an option to name the waypoint (like I can do when creating a waypoint within Cachly). Any suggestions?
  17. Nope. Just to be clear, I'm talking about a waypoint created in iCaching and exported to a gpx file, then uploaded to Cachly. I can resend the gpx file if you want to look at it again. As I said in September, the file correctly shows the user created waypoint when plotted on Google Earth and on my GPSr.
  18. Darn. Still no user created waypoints imported to Cachly from an iCaching gpx file.
  19. I do not see the … on logs either. Using a 5s with iOS 10.0.2
  20. Will the fix work for iCaching waypoints also?
  21. I use that feature on the phone when using voice to text. When I say "cache" it writes "cash," so when I'm finished with the dictation I go back and add a "p" to cash (because the "p" is the closest to my thumb) and my predefined shortcut correctly writes "cache."
  22. If that were available I'd gladly exchange the "Logs" button for a "Waypoint" button.
  23. I don't think a new search option is needed to hide one errant archived event since no other archived caches, of any type, show up. It's got to be an anomaly with this particular cache.
  24. The event that won't die is: GC6JKJ9 Using Cachly 1.1.7 (1) on a 5s running iOS 9.3.4
