There were issues with generating the Australia maps recently and I restarted the generation process yesterday. Those maps should be done in a few days and I will post back where when it is complete. Sorry about the inconvenience. -
This is never a good idea as you will loose all data. I do have a fix for the initial bug. I will be submitting it to Apple today for approval. What specific map are you loading?

Can you provide a few of the GC codes that aren't loading images? I want to create a PQ that includes those.
-
That is a cache owner image. Perhaps. Can you test it on just phone data?
-
Hmm, I cannot replicate this on a PQ with 100 Earthcaches and 2200 images. Does this happen just for that PQ or all PQs that you have? Also, are all 350 caches missing image downloads? The one thing I could maybe guess is that the Geocaching image server timed out for some of the download requests.
-
Just curious. How many caches are in the PQ? And, how many images was it downloading?
-
No, that is a custom map that geocaching.com has created. It is also sourced from openstreetmaps like our Premium Offline maps are. Have you used our Premium Offline maps? They have beautiful hillshades and contours as well as very detailed data. This is something that I would love to provide as a paid option in the future, as licensing satellite imagery is quite expensive.

Automatically update caches on a map
Nic Hubbard replied to bearpanda's question in Feature Requests
c:geo hacks the geocaching.com and uses screen scraping. They basically illegally use the methods from the website and make them work in their app. Which, HQ does not allow. -
I worked on the new HQ Wherigo app, so hopefully it is a good compromise. Integrating a Wherigo player into Cachly isn't something that is planned.
-
HQ announced that an updated player for iOS will be released fairly soon. So stayed tuned for that.

Automatically update caches on a map
Nic Hubbard replied to bearpanda's question in Feature Requests
The official app has the benefit of using an API that we cannot. It can load 500 caches at a time for the area around the map. This isn't a complaint, but just a fact. Because we cannot do this (no API like this for partner apps) and because of the API limits that users have on how many caches they can load per day and for each request, it would be a poor user experience. So it isn't something that we have planned right now. -
Yes, you can enter this as a keyword by long pressing in the log field or tapping the ... button and choosing to insert keyword.

Nic Hubbard replied to Twinklekitkat's question in Feature Requests
This is a request that I have put in for HQ to add to the API, so it won't be possible to add to Cachly if/when this happens. Great idea! Will get this added hopefully in 6.2. -
No, that is the corrected coordinate indicator. This is what the FTF looks like:
-
The red indicator you are seeing is meaning you created Corrected Coordinates for this cache, not FTF. You can you remove these on the cache details page.
-
That cache isn’t an FTF for me. Is it in an offline list? Have you refreshed the cache?
-
Hmm, yes it does sound like the iOS watchdog process is killing Cachly for a long running process on startup. iOS "should" save crash logs for everything, and it should also create them for this use case.
-
Can you send me the crash logs? As for getting logged out, does it seem like something triggers this? It could just be a geocaching.com issue, as we haven’t had any other users report a persistent issue with this.
-
Are you meaning when sending answers to the CO? This is something that is passed to the Message Center and should show in the message. Are you not seeing this working? If not, let me know exactly the steps you are using. What isn't working? When you tap the button to add photos, does it not work? Have you somehow denied permissions for Cachly to access photos (check the iOS Settings app, then Cachly)?
-
There are many many things that factor into this, so unfortunately I can't say right now.
-
Hoping to get this added in 6.2.
-
Currently there aren't plans to do this. Some the other apps, such as GCBuddy do a great job of this already.

first search results disappear after additional search
Nic Hubbard replied to Pfalstad's topic in Support
Hmm, I will keep trying to replicate it. -
No, can't be done with online filtering. Highlight colors are a feature of Cachly, and the live search is coming from the geocaching.com API, which doesn't know anything about highlight colors. So there isn't a way to return highlighted caches from the API.
