One request: Can you put cache size on the cache detail page??

Top stuff!

After initially having problems with using this, I've updated my phones OS to 2.3.3 got the latest app and changed a few settings, I was using load at startup, but now I just refresh when required. It is working really well now, logged a few frog finds this morning with it. TFTA :D

Logon issue?
I assume the correct userid and password is on the app? ie the one you use to logon to GCA forums and website and caps is correct,
I can't quiet make out the userid.

Please try again. I've put is some debug code to try and see what is coming down the pipe to determine what the situation may be.

I thought I was putting off trying out this app because I misspelled the name in the market search and got no results.

Turns out it is not showing up because of the minimum version requirements. What features from 2.1 does it use that are not available in 1.6 mtrax?

There was quiet a bug jump from 1.6 to 2.1 but as far as what API level specific code I'm using I would have to comb through the whole app to figure that out.
I'm assuming you can't upgrade your device?
I'm the mean time I'll see if I can re-compile the current code for 1.6 users and put a separate APK but no guarantees at this stage but will try...

I must say the movable cache race this year is so much better for those of us with Android phones and your app. Thanks so much!

How do you navigate with this app.? I don't get an option to navigate with a compass. I only get Google maps or navigator, which is for cars following a road.

I had to install a separate compass program - trying Locus, so far am finding it a little complicated though and it sucks my battery dry
