James Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 My friends list is empty on Cachly despite giving permission to sharing my friend data from the geocaching website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Hubbard Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Because of geocaching.com privacy policies both you AND your friends must agree to sharing friend data with third-party apps. Once a friend does this you will be able to see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bean Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hi all, Today I ran into the same problem. On GC.com I have 8 Friends I follow. After signing on in the Cachly app, only 2 of them showed up. I contacted one Friend to test things out. On https://www.geocaching.com/account/settings/authorizations we both checked the "Allow Authorized Developer Applications to share your geocaching activities with your Geocaching.com friends": Unfortunately nothing changed; he didn't show up in my Cachly, I didn't show up in his'. Then we found another setting on https://www.geocaching.com/account/settings/preferences. After checking "Show my activity on my friends' Dashboards" we showed up in each others Friendspage in Cachly again: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Hubbard Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 @Mr Bean Thanks for mentioning this. This is not a restriction that we previously knew about. I will ask HQ if this was an intended change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
