Bad Elf GPS integration


Ketil

Question

Hi,

Thanks for creating the best geocaching app out there! Geocaching on the phone is finally fun again.

After Cachly appeared on the scene, I see little reason to use my bulky GPS unit anymore. To improve positional accuracy and the battery life of my phone, I have bought a Bad Elf Bluetooth GPS unit. When connected, Bad Elf replaces iOS' internal GPS in all location based apps.

In addition to this, Bad Elf comes with an SDK. It provides connected apps with a higher GPS update frequency and information about the satellite reception and accuracy. More information here: https://github.com/BadElf/gps-sdk/blob/master/README.md

I do understand that you have a lot of features on the roadmap already, but just wanted to let you know about this anyway. Deep integration with Bad Elf would certainly be a nice feature addition for serious mobile first geocachers. :)

Thanks again for maintaing the best cache app out there! Looking forward to version 2!

Kind regards,

Ketil
