Hi Tom,

Are you meaning Premium Offline Maps? If so, this is a know issue and we are looking into the cause. 

Here is a bit more information about 6.1 as we haven't had a chance to update the wiki: https://medium.com/@cachly/cachly-6-1-features-and-release-37be309d9f68

How do you activate/use proximity alert?

Proximity alert is a new button that shows up on the navigate to cache screen as well as on offline lists. You can tap it to see all the options and turn it on, or you can long press the button to quickly turn it on.

I presume images in personal notes are only accessible within Cachly — not stored at geocaching.com?

These are saved in iCloud drive and will be synced to your other devices and are accessible on those devices and on your computer by viewing them in iCloud Drive and viewing the Cachly folder. They are not saved on geocaching.com.

Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Thank you for reporting this.

Hmm, the App you export it to should have no affect, since the process to create the txt file is exactly the same. I will put some additional checks in our 6.1.1 version.

I log a cache and just save the entry (no sending to geocaching.com). Then I export the find to a text file.

It ends up like this:
GC8AV78,2020-09-21T09:46Z,Found it,"(null)"

It should look like this:
GC8AV78,2020-09-21T09:46Z,Found it," "

Have you tested on Cachly 6.1? This should have been fixed in our recent update.

I am not 100% sure what you are meaning, can you post a screenshot?

Cachly 6.1 is now available for download!

This was a watchOS 7 issue that has been fixed in our 6.1 release. Check the App Store and you should see the update which will fix the issue.

Just curious, how are you getting new cache notifications by text? I have never seen this option on geocaching.com.

Yes, the line will stay locked on your current location and the target cache. Sounds like there was a glitch. Can you replicate this?

I haven't ever seen those available as text message, are you meaning the emails? If so, you can copy the link and paste that into the Cachly search bar on the live tab.

Looks like you just need to refresh your lists. When on the Online lists tab, just pull down on the list and it will load new data. Let me know if this helps.

It did dawn on me why the iPad wouldn't switch orientations while I was setting there fooling with it, it doesn't have a "real" compass, so won't change until you move a bit and it interpolates it...

Ah, yes. I am surprised that it works at all. It must be using the GPS course data.

Let me know if you can replicate #3, I am not able to.

Also, for question #1, have you tested this again? Many users use this feature.

Is there a way to use the watch as stand alone?

Yes, the watch app uses GPS/Location services from your watch, it it has GPS. Is yours at least a Series 3 watch?

Using Ipad in car noticed "course up" function changes every time I manually reorient the map, or go back to the description or compass. I ALWAYS want to use it in course up. Is there a way to lock that on ? I must hit that little button a hundred times a day if I am out LOL.. Frustrating...

There isn't a way to lock this mode, but it has been a requested feature. What map are you using? Going to the compass or descriptions should not take you out of this mode.

Seems as if when the maps app is open, the course up function fails in cachly..   Seems as if closing the maps app (running in background) fixed the issue... Just letting you know..

I wasn't able to replicate this. Let me know what map type you are using so I can try and replicate that on my devices.

Went out caching with it,, it eventually started to work, not sure what the issue was ,,, 

Glad it is working!

It should be working. Can you view a few caches on your phone (meaning view the details screen) and then see if it works on your watch?

It should be recognizing the current cache from your phone right away. Are you sure you have bluetooth turned on on both devices?

Thanks, this helped me find the bug. It will be fixed for 6.0.6. Thank you!

I cannot say exactly when the problem started occuring because I have been manually correcting the calendar entries. 

I have been able to replicate the issue in an offline list. Can you confirm that it works correctly if you search for GC8YQDQ in Live, but that viewing it in an offline list is where the problem is?

This also is not a new problem but has been around for at least a few weeks. 

Was it working correctly before this time? Nothing has changed in Cachly with regards to the end time since 6.0 was first released. 

Hmm, mine is showing correctly. What time zone are you in?

Thanks Frank. This would take significant development, but it is still something that I have on the list to consider.

And if I'm only using Cachly on one device (I only have 1 Apple device), exactly what would it be syncing with?

This is synching the highlight database with the Cachly SQL database.

Can you try turning on iCloud? This feature is meant to work with iCloud, and although it does work offline from that there might be unexpected behavior without it.

Thanks. Looks liked you are correct, it is only happening when the note is deleted completely.

Appreciate you reporting this, I will get it fixed for 6.0.6.
