Glad you are liking it!
-
Thanks! That is the goal. User feedback and dialog is key to making the best Geocaching app available.
-
Not at this time. We are a very small development team, so we are focusing on iOS at the moment. If that changes we will be sure to announce it.
-
Wonderful! Can you send me an email through the support option in Cachly? Then we can talk more details. Thanks!
-
Thanks. I will look into this report right away and get it fixed.
-
Thanks for reporting this. We had another user with this issue in the beta stage but we couldn't replicate it. Does this happen always? Or are there things that cause it such as not being on wifi or having no data connection?
-
Cachly does support other languages. We currently support French, German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese and Swedish. These are changed in Cachly based on your system language. Would you be interested translating for Japanese?
-
This isn't currently possible. However, disabled caches should have an X inside of them. Are you seeing this?
-
Thank you! It was a lot of hard work, but so happy that we can share it with everyone!
-
Thanks for reporting this. 2.0 will be released tomorrow morning (8am Pacific Time) and adds tons of new features and fixes hundreds of issues. It is likely this has already been fixed, but after you upgrade to 2.0 please let me know if you are still experiencing this. (Make sure to download the PQ since in 2.0 they download in a different way with MUCH more cache data.)

Yes, Geosphere has access to accessing your location even when you have left the app, so it could be using GPS and battery while you are not actively in the app. Cachly doesn't do this, and only uses GPS while the app is active.
-
One thing you can do to give you a hint as to which apps are using GPS is to go to your iOS Settings -> Privacy -> Location Services. You will see the location icon next to apps that have recently used your location. Cachly 2.0 will be out on December 5th, so make sure to update!
-
I didn't meant close the app, just leave the app by hitting the home button. Closing it completely would be a huge pain for users.
-
Thank you! Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Correct. You can even test this by being in Cachly, then locking your phone. When you press the power button again (still on lock screen) you can wait until the location icon in the status bar turns off. This means GPS is no longer being used. Yes, GPS switches back on if you unlock your phone and are back in Cachly. Another tip to save battery life is to turn your phone to Airplane Mode. Since iOS 8 you have been able to use GPS while in Airplane Mode. This will also really save on battery. I will still add the GPS on/off idea to our feature list. I think it is a valid request that we will explore. Thanks!

Glad you are enjoying using Cachly! This is a tough one. I am of mindset of trying to make things powerful, while also being minimalistic. This means, if iOS can perform a function, I don't want to add it in the app (such as a flashlight feature). So, with that in mind, just locking your phone or exiting Cachly will turn off the GPS. Cachly doesn't keep GPS on while you exit the app, so this is the simple way to save battery life. When you want to turn it back on, just unlock your phone, or return to Cachly and GPS will turn back on. Would this work for you?

Welcome to Cachly! Bulk upload of Pending Logs was a feature that we wanted to add in 2.0, but ultimately we had to keep it off the list because we couldn't add any more features since we want to get it released very soon. That feature will be priority after 2.0 is released and will be in 2.0.1.
-
Team DEMP beat me to it! Yes, exactly as was said, this is just a feature of iOS and isn't something that we added.
-
Yes, as Team DEMP said, in 2.0 this will be possible to view other user's hides. Unfortunately we are not able to show Archived Hides, as the API from Groundspeak does not include those.
-
This isn't currently planned. It would be a huge feature integration, so we are currently focusing our development efforts on other features.
-
You will need to visit geocaching.com to create an account. Once you have created an account and verified it through email, return to Cachly and login. Currently Apple does not allow us to have a Signup button in Cachly. I wish Apple let us as it is frustrating on our end too!

Happy to help. When you create a new Waypoint, did you enter the coordinates and then hit "Save"? Make sure not to tap the "Current Location" option or "Geocache Location", as those are just quick presets. Once you have a saved Waypoint, you can swipe that row and it will give you the option to Edit or Delete. You can Edit your created Waypoint and fix the coordinates. Let me know if that clears things up, I wasn't positive how your waypoint didn't get the waypoints that you entered, so wanted to make sure you didn't tap a preset.
-
Yes, this feature has been added to our 2.0 version and our beta testers have been using it for a little while now.
-
Excellent idea. We actually have this on our feature list, but I will bump it up in priority. Thanks!
