U might be for that reason, L O I S are easily confused with other letters. p.s. Interesting thread here https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/index.php?/topic/341449-3-million/

As above it's because Cachly doesn't 'save state' (where it's up to). The more things you do while switched away from Cachly, the greater chance iOS will decide Cachly's memory is needed for something else. Turning off the phone will definitely do it… and not sure why you would. Apart from the odd buggy app (cough Facebook cough), phone battery usage while asleep is minimal. Check Settings > Battery to see the stats.

Hi, if you edit the name of a photo, that photo overwrites the first photo… log a cache in the message, add a photo from your library, give it a name, hit save ditto for a 2nd photo now go back into the 2nd photo and edit the name the first photo + name will be overwritten by the 2nd photo Cachly 3.0.3, iOS 10.3.3

You may find it's better after rebooting the phone, as that can clear out memory.

This happened again today, even without using the bulk upload. As I've been the only person to report, I've just deleted and reinstalled Cachly.

Hi, I save most of my log entries locally (Send Log Now is turned off). Occasionally in the 3.x versions: after (successfully) sending the logs to GS, Cachly still shows a number against Pending Geocache Logs and on the app badge. Maybe only on bulk submission? if I continue creating local logs, these will often (always?) disappear into a black hole after a while… maybe after Cachly is relaunched? And the count will then be correct. Sorry for not having more details, but this is serious and has caught me a couple of times, so wanted to raise it now.

That would suit me… at least until I age a few more years And it's a 'minimum offline map font size=x' I'm after.

In Settings > Display & Brightness > Text Size you can bump up the slider to make the street names on Apple's map more legible (both the Maps app and Apple Maps option within Cachly). Unfortunately iOS increases the font size everywhere… I'd rather it only increased the tiny fonts.

Yeah, Cachly's map and Apple Maps are the 2 worst places for small text for me It's a workaround, but iOS can show a magnifying glass on the screen: http://www.wikihow.com/Magnify-Your-iOS-Device-with-Accessibility-Zooming

I've installed GSAK inside Virtual Box (free) as I have a Mac — it's a powerful program, but you do need a reasonable level of geekiness to use it. It runs fine in trial mode if you want/can take that path. For 300 caches it's probably just as quick to do them manually, though I've found GSAK invaluable for checking the odd challenge cache.

Nice idea, but it's 3.2 kilometres (2 miles), and that rule's only been in place since around 2006… so earlier original vs. corrected coords could have a much larger gap.

Something to keep in mind is the iPhone uses Assisted GPS: if you have a network connection it can take up to 30 seconds to download satellite data before your location can be calculated. Without a network connection this maximum increases to 10+ minutes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisted_GPS

Don't rely on live mode if you're going off the grid: if Cachly is restarted for any reason, maybe iOS decides it's short of memory, you will lose the live data.

But the existing caches all have circles, so you just ensure you're outside them?

This is pretty minor After reauthenticating, Cachly will ignore Automatic Search on Start being turned off, and show the first 50 caches regardless.

I believe that too, but authentication appears to be a series of web pages, so Cachly could save my password then enter it for me, or enable keychain access on those pages.

I think the number only goes away when Cachly is restarted, at which point it seems to correct itself but also delete any new logs created in the meantime. It's happened 3 times… it may be related to a log which wouldn't send — a Found against an Event, or poor cellular service. I've been submitting individual logs and Cachly has been fine. I'll do that for a bit longer and maybe risk a bulk submission again

Every new post you change what the issue is. You said you were on 10.3.1, now you're saying the problems started in 10.3.2 I've used both with no issues. Nik's replied about 'locking' the navigation screen in a future version of Cachly so accidental touches are ignored. You've been told how to force a recalibration, but persist in saying it can't be done. Sounds like your Garmin is the best option for you.

If any GPS-using program is left open, the phone will chew through battery at somewhere around 10% an hour.

Would find it handy to be able to download a low-res map of the entire world.

V3 is misbehaving for me with waypoints: waypoints are duplicated numerous times in offline lists: first image shows the offline waypoints, 2nd the live. can't delete a waypoint… possibly because it's duplicated: see 3rd and 4th images. Cachly seems to be overriding my waypoint name if it's corrected now? Maybe not let the user edit the title, or overwrite the title so it's obvious? Cachly 3.0.1

At best, GPS is accurate to 5 m (16 feet), so you need to double that for the original GPS reading + the finder's reading.

Thanks Nic. Reasonably sure the first lot of duplicates was generated just by doing PQ imports… maybe different lists with the same caches in them triggering it? I was in the bush for the 2nd set, but AFAIK had reception the entire time.

Hi, not sure if new bug or just noticed… Importing a new list causes Cachly to lose the sort order on existing lists: order Offline lists using Edit and dragging them to change order Import from iTunes select the file to import (in this example a My Finds zip) Choose Offline List tap + to create new list tap Save select the just created list tap Import go back to Offline lists and the order has been changed note that quitting and restarting Cachly will restore the original order Cachly was also crashing every 2nd or 3rd import doing this, but possibly because of the 'translated' cache descriptions I was exporting from GSAK. The count of caches in an offline list was also 0 or double (if reimporting), but that's been covered in another thread. Suggestion: I think Cachly should combine steps 5-7: if you're creating a new list Cachly should select it for you. Cachly 3.0.1 (2), iOS 10.3.2; 2 different devices.

I like the current badge as it's a reminder there's things to do — finish & send logs. This use of a badge is also standard iOS behaviour. I would sometimes use a daily found count inside the app which showed submitted + pending for the day.
