Great feature. I can see how this could be easily integrated into the various screens such as the Add Waypoints screen. Will bump it up in priority. 

Welcome to Cachly!

This is something that I do have on our feature list, and I hope to get it added by our 2.1 version. Stay tuned!

Looking at our crash logs, I do see some crashes for your user on January 2, but none since then. One Jan. 2 they were being caused by the map issue when navigating that I outlined elsewhere. 

Are you able to replicate any of these crashes reliably? 

Have it on our feature list. Will bump it up a bit in priority.

This is one of those issues that is hard to fix and make everyone happy. Our current UI design is a good mix of information that most of our users find helpful. I would think that you are in the "power user" category, so your requirements are somewhat different.

I think in the future maybe having two different UI layouts for list/map callout would be a good idea. So I will make sure it gets noted on our feature list.

This is on our feature list, and others have requested this as well. Will leave it here to let users vote on it.

Are you on 2.0.2?

About map rendering, I notice that Cachly re-renders when returning to a map view (i.e. back from a cache listing to the map of nearby caches). I had wondered why Cachly didn't retain and reuse the rendered tiles as I haven't moved in the 30secs since I left the map view.

Tile caching is enabled. Are you seeing the issue when you move from one offline map to another? (Such as from an offline list map to the navigate map inside of a cache?)

Offline map rendering will be slower on older devices since the tiles are rendered in realtime. We are working on this performance issue. 

This shouldn't be happening. Are you able to delete Cachly and reinstall? This isn't an ideal solution but it could help in this situation. 

What is your GC username?

Yes, private browsing is what I would check. That keeps cookies for just each tab. 

Sadly Groundspeak doesn't allow third-party developers to add this to their apps. They said it was a privacy issue.

Just tested this new feature, and it working wonderfully! A big thanks!

Happy to help!

Great suggestion. I have this on our feature list and will see how hard it would be to develop.

Yep. I realize the need for this feature and that many many users are wanting it. Just don't want to release it prematurely.

I do agree this would be a great feature. However, it would take a large amount of development time and testing as syncing is a hard thing to get right.

It is for sure on our feature list.

Yes it that i want say ;-) Seeing immediatly the 5 last green or red dots.

Thanks!

This is something that we have on our feature list to add, but not sure when it will make it in.

Got it. I think this would be a nice feature addition.

When Cachly loads caches as search results, it loads "Lite" caches. In order to show the 5 dots we would we would have to load "Full" caches which would use part of your 6000 full caches per 24 hour limit that is imposed by geocaching.com. (Users can load 10,000 Lite caches per 24/hours)

We have considered using a Settings option to allow users to do this, but it hasn't been planned yet.

I've been using the updated beta version mentioned in the other post for a few weeks now.  I can confirm that it does a good job of allowing people in non-Seattle time zones to log caches at the "correct" date/time.

Glad it is working so well for you. We will be submitting 2.0.2 to Apple today.

I totally agree. However the API does not provide this info, so there isn't currently a way to do this.

Wonderful! Thanks Nic.

The issue I was having, was adding text ahead of the default log, which I use at the end of all my "Found it" logs. When I tap "Log this Cache" and then "Message", the cursor is at the end of the default log. I want to add the body of my log ahead of this. I have to touch somewhere in the text of the default log and then slide my finger to the beginning of the default log to reposition the cursor. I find this cumbersome to do every time I log a cache. I also tried tapping at the beginning of the default log to reposition the cursor, but about half the time it would take me back to the previous screen because it is so close to the back arrow at the top of the screen.

It shouldn't be too hard to automatically make the cursor start at the beginning of the text, so I will fix this.

This is a feature that has been on our list for a while now. Just have not had a chance to add it. Hopefully in 2.1.

Can you explain the issue you were having with the default log text in Cachly?

This is an issue that was fixed in 2.0.2 which we will be submitting to Apple this week. Stay tuned.

Using Cachly on the trail for the first time today, I encountered issues with sorting the offline caches by distance. I was on a rail trail doing part of a power trail. As I walked from cache to cache, I went to the List View and re-sorted by distance. Sometimes the closest cache was at the top of the list, but mostly it was a mix of nearby caches. The only way I could get it to sort accurately, was to close the app, reopen it, and sort again. 

This is something that we are working on fixing. Basically we need to be updating the entire list for each GPS update we get. However, if it is a massive list this might have some performance ramifications, so we are working through this.
