I really would enjoy having a 'pocket mode'. In this feature, the app would lock it's screen if upside down to allow the GPS and app to remain open while in the pocket while conserving some battery and keeping buttons from being pressed. Upon return from the pocket, the phone will be right side up and the screen log instantly goes away. If the cacher gets within 100 foot of the cache he/she is navigating to, Cachly will make ring to alert the cacher that they are approaching the cache. This feature will let cachers tackle terrain and/or obstacles while not worrying about turning the phone on and off over and over again while letting the GPS lock in again and again.
For a working example, see Pokemon Go's "Battery Saver Mode" as it's inspiration for this request.
