It usually is on the HQ side when it comes to odd behavior around data that shows up, or in this case, disappears out of nowhere.

After I sent a request to you, you were displayed in Cachly on the Friends screen under Requests. it showed you as pending. After you posted here that you accepted the request, you no longer displayed under Requests BUT you have yet to show up on my Cachly Friends screen. I still have others listed there but you haven't shown up yet. You are showing as a Friend on the website as https://www.geocaching.com/my/myfriends.aspx . I'll check with Nic (Cachly developer) to see if there is any debugging we can do at the request Cachly sends to & gets back from the Geocaching site.

I also sent a friends invitation to you from the website. If you accept, I can show you display as a Friend in Cachly.

Cachly doesn't store any data and it's just displaying what the Geocaching site returns to it. Just as a "reboot" option, if you haven't tried, log out of the GC account within Cachly and then log back in to see if anything resets. To log out, in Cachly, click "... More" in the bottom right of the screen and then on the next screen, click "..." in the top right where you will see a menu optom of Logout. You will be asked to confirm. After confirming, you will see the Login screen. Click to Login and then Agree, and you should be logged back in again. Did your friends magically re-appear?

I still show all my friends in Cachly. If a friend isn't showing THEY need to allow third party apps, not you. Your settings would cause you to show or not show for them, but not influence them showing for you. Message one of your GC friends and have them look at their settings.

A check mark can also show on a cache that was not sent now, so not necessarily a draft. If you tap More on the bottom right off the main screen, a couple options down do you see Online Drafts ? Does that help with what you are looking for?

The easiest suggestion is to not Send Now which will store the log local on your iphone. I often do this unless I'm in a strong signal area. It will show as a pending log ( red indicator over More in the bottom right nav) and then I send pending logs when I have 2 or more cellular bars. I don't rent too much on cellular when it's down to 1 bar. I often can't browse per do anything other than possibly text, so for me the minimum to Send Now is 2 bars.

Welcome to Geocaching and Cachly. The 3 cache limit is not Cachly but Groundspeak/Geocaching.com . The last I recall, there official app didn't have a 3 cache limit butt restricted the caches to only those with a 1.5 or less difficulty abed terrain rating. Groundspeak imposes the 3 cache limit on partner apps like Cachly but there is no difficulty/terrain limit. Does it make sense- maybe to Groundspeak. Nothing that Cachly can do though as it's a requirement that Groundspeak requires Cachly and other apps to follow.

My preference is just to use one of the exiting online sites that provide this when passing in the 3 codes. I'm not sure there is much value in Cachly doing that within the app.

Currently the API that HQ provides official apps like Cachly does not yet support identifying Adventure Labs that you’ve found or placed. Hopefully HQ will enhance their API to super this at Erich time Cachly can leverage the filter options similar to caches.

No worries and you are not an idiot. I'm an idiot - just ask my wife. Happy caching!

Hey there and welcome to Cachly! There are 2 log settings that work together but also independently in how your logs are managed. The two options are Send Log Now and Save as Draft. When Send Log Now is set, after you complete the log on your phone, it is sent immediately to GC. If that option is not enabled, when you complete the log on your phone, it is saved as a local draft. When Save as Draft is enabled, when the log is sent to GC, it will be a Draft log on the GC site. If not enabled, when the log is sent to GC, it will be posted on the cache page immediately. You can mix and match the above and all combinations will produce different results. Since it looks like you have local (on your phone) drafts, those need to be sent to GC before they will show up. They would be local drafts if you have Send Log Now disabled (not showing green in the settings). Depending if you have Save as Draft, it will either post against the cache immediately or go to GC drafts. What are you settings? And you can change your default settings each tine you go to log a cache.

There is no Cachly app password. Cachly like all official 3rd party apps use your geocaching.com password where the app redirects to Geocaching for authentication and authorization. Changing your password on Geocaching shouldn't impact Cachly or if anything, Geocaching would have told Cachly to have you log in again with your new password. More than you ever needed to know but the important takeaway is the Cachly app has no Cachly user/password and it's your Geocaching user/password.

As a follow-up, there's nothing Cachly uses that could be down on the Cachly end. All requests go to the Geocaching HQ servers. It gets tricky to know as the HQ website and HQ app might be working while Cachly and other 3rd party apps are having an issue or even the other way around. The official site/app and 3rd party apps don''t always use the same "stuff" to return similar things.

The Geocaching website is having problems and it is unrelated to Cachly. When HQ fixes things on their end, Cachly should be happy again.
