You don't have to stay on the downloads screen, but downloading does pause when you leave Cachly. Does this happen for all PQs? Or just this specific one? I tested my own PQ with 2322 images and they all downloaded.
-
Are you able to share the PQ or how you created it?
-
This is very strange. I cannot replicate this issue, and we have never had any other users report this, it always works. What phone are you using? Do other apps have issues with location services?

filtering on highlight color doesn't work sometimes
Nic Hubbard replied to Pfalstad's topic in Support
Manual sync is the option you want. It shouldn't add highlights to other caches, so not sure what happened when you were doing that. -
It sounds like they must have changed the way other apps can connect to it.
-
No, unfortunately I can't say a date yet.
-
Yes, that is the only supported import type. There aren't any plans to support other types at the moment. Our recommendation is to use a zipped GPX for importing into Cachly to save on data size.

Our Premium Offline maps of Australia have been regenerated and should be working correctly now. Please let me know if you see any additional issues.
-
That is great news. Thanks for confirming!
-
Cachly 6.1.6 has been released and should show up soon on the App Store. Let me know if this update fixes the issue that you posted about in this thread. Thanks.
-
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.
