  1. Glad you are enjoying using it! To turn this feature on, go to the More tab, then to Settings and turn on the "Cache Radius" option.
  2. There currently isn't a way to show map scale, but it is on the feature list. Hope to get it added soon.
  3. No problem. When you are on a map view, tap the current location button on the bottom right of the map. It looks like an arrow and has a white background. Tapping that again will take you through the different follow modes, the last being "follow with heading". Let me know if this works for you.
  4. Could you email me the .gpx file for this PQ? You mentioned the cache radius feature is enabled, and I have a feeling you are running out of memory. Basically, you are loading 1000 map annotations (caches) onto the map, as well as drawing an overlay (circle radius) around many of those caches. That is quite a lot of memory for iOS and it likely maxes out and the app gets killed. But, I can test it more when I see the file.
  5. Thanks. I will reopen that issue and do some more digging.
  6. Glad to hear it. Thanks for reporting!
  7. Thanks Keith for reporting this, and thanks for the GC code. I will look into getting this fixed.
  8. When opening an offline list while still online, it won't make any requests to the server, it will load those caches locally. However, it will try to load maps while you are still online. Offline map downloading should work, just make sure to download the adequate zoom level so you will have enough resolution when offline. We are working on a simplified offline map downloader were you won't have to worry about zoom levels or map type.
  9. Sorry for the confusion. Are you meaning in these support forums when you said Cachly web account? If so, the support forums are not linked to the Cachly app. The friends within Cachly are only accessible within the app. Let me know if I didn't clarify or if you have any other questions!
  10. This is something that we are looking into doing, the major issue here is that the Groundspeak/geocaching.com API that Cachly users does not provide DNF data. So we will have to figure out a way to store this data on our own server, and it wouldn't be retroactive.
  11. Geocaching.com friends and Cachly friends are different. Unfortunately the API that Groundspeak/geocaching.com provides doesn't give us the ability to show the friends that you have on geocaching.com. So, instead you can save Cachly friends within the app.
  12. Hi GeoKeys57. Chat isn't something that was supported, so I removed that tab. Sorry about the confusion!
  13. Ah, OpenCycle Map. That one I have noticed is slow to load and it seems it is that way on Wifi too. I think that the map provider just has a slow server. I will be emailing Julie back in a few about her questions. Strange about the freezing. I will be looking into that issue. Could you email our support email address so that I can ask a few more questions? Thanks!
  14. What map provider were you using? Map tiles will be downloading directly from their providers, so I am not sure what the slowdown would be. Have not seen this issue myself. Absolutely. In an upcoming version this screen will be completely changed basically making it a one tap download that users won't have to think about. It will also download all zoom levels as we are changing the algorithm to only download tiles in a radius around caches. This feature can be turned on by tapping the current location button to toggle its "modes". There is No Follow, Follow and Follow with Heading. Both these have been requested by other users as well and are something we are working on. Showing that a cache has been found, but not yet submitted the log wouldn't be hard. The DNF feature is something a bit harder since Groundspeak doesn't support this in their API. So we will need to use our own server to handle the DNF's for all users. Great idea about the zooming. Will get this added to our feature list. Absolutely. Working on some additional ways to show accuracy throughout the app. Should be included in our next release. Thanks for using Cachly! I highly value user feedback, so I really appreciate all of your comments and questions. My goal is to make the best Geocaching app out there, and this can't be done without users help!
  15. Different offline maps options is something that we are actively working on, and vector maps is for sure something being worked on. I will take a deeper look into this solution and let you know what I think. Thanks!
  16. Currently Cachly doesn't save the photos to the camera roll, just to the uploaded log. But, I would be happy to build in the ability to have them saved in the Camera Roll. Will get that added in an upcoming version!
  17. Strange. Line breaks should be preserved. I will dig a bit deeper and get this fixed in our next release. Thank you for reporting it!
  18. Thanks for downloading Cachly! If you tap on the More tab, then go to Bookmarks, and to a bookmark list, you will see the ... button on the top right. This will allow you to download it as an offline list with maps. Is this what you were hoping for? Yes, live maps are coming, but first we are making some changes to offline map downloads that will make things much easier and faster. Let me know if you have any other questions!

    APP

    We are a very small development team, so at this point focusing on iOS only makes the most sense.
  20. Hi Jenn, we will be adding the "Login with Facebook" option in our upcoming 1.0.7 version of Cachly. Sorry about the inconvenience!
  21. Hi Louise, Cachly has been tested with a number of GCA GPX files and everything was working correctly. I would be more than happy to use your file and fix those issues ASAP and have the fixes in Cachly 1.0.7. I will email you too so that I can get the file. Very sorry about the issues that this caused. I have every intention of fully supporting GCA caches, so I would like to fix this. Thanks!
  22. Glad to hear that! Tell your friends!
  23. No, this isn't currently possible. However you could create a Pocket Query along a route and then import this into Cachly. Yes, after you have loaded some caches you will see that the refresh button (top right of the caches map screen) has a ... inside. This means that there are more caches to load. Tap that to continue loading more and more.
  24. No, there are no plans to change the map icons at this time. In the upcoming 1.0.7 version of Cachly, tapping the current location will copy the coordinates into the iOS clipboard, which can be very useful. It isn't possible to place a Geocache from any app out there, even the official Groundspeak app. They want everyone to go through the website. However, we are working on a feature to be able to pre-create a cache using Cachly. So you would be able to compose an email with all the details you would need to create a cache once you are able to go to geocaching.com to do so. Hope this helps.
