new GCA android app
new GCA android app
I have just released a new GCA app to the Android market.
The application allows you to use your Android device to display nearby caches and recent logs as well as navigate and display using Google maps.
The App name currently is "GA Cacher beta" but may look at changing that in the future, if you have a good suggestion please let me know.
The feature set is mainly functional but may be updated or added if required or if there are any requests. I know there few GC apps about and this one main goal is for GCA caches.

You can report any bugs or enhancement request directly to me via email or just post on this thread.

It seems to work well from my study.
My nearest unfound GCA trad cache is 12km away so I'm not sure when I'll be able to go there, but it looks very similar to c:geo and so it should be great to have this available for GCA listed caches.
Thanks heaps mtrax.
Re: new GCA android app
Well done - found my nearest GA. Worked flawlessly.
- Would like to filter out the TPs as there are hundreds of them, and the one I decided to try out was far too remote for our vehicle to access.
- I realize you can't log finds yet - but that would have my vote.
Thanks for the program.

hmm perhaps you might need to clarify what page thats on, do you mean the Google maps page?caughtatwork wrote:Where do I find the compass thingy in this app?
As to the logging , will have to wait for an API on GCA , but filtering by cache type.. I'll add to the TODO list.

Re: new GCA android app
I think C@W means a compass needle pointing to the cache and showing the distance.

Re: new GCA android app
It crashes on me whenever I try and download caches...

Re: new GCA android app
For some reason I can not seem to find your email on the market page... I swear there used to be email address there somewhere...
