V0.36 with a bug fix update to support Jelly Bean (android 4.1), this should be available shortly on the Google markey (Play Store)

Don't you hate that they now call it Play Store?

Sort of devalues the whole thing.

version 0.41 update now makes moving caches slightly easier.. GPS coords can be retrieved from GPS in Log Visit for a Move.
ie you have a button which grabs coordinates from GPS (when enabled and accuracy is less than 10m)

as usual let me know if there are any issues..

enjoy...

Fantastic! I was going to ask about this as I try and log them as I place them n GCA Cacher. I have been recording to co-ords with cgeo and then typing them into GCA. Thanks :lol:

How does it grab the coords from the GPS, do you need to plug it in somehow???

Thank you so much mtrax. Your app makes logging movables so easy. I'm off to the market to leave 5 stars.

Even tho I havent used the GPS co-ords grabbing feature, I completely agree with geo-jas statement. It doesnt jump around so that you cant see what you're typing like what happens with some other apps I use. I hadnt used it much for logging prior to today coz of battery issues but used it this morning and it was so quick and easy!! It was great coz I wasnt going to be home for quite a few hours to be able to log online nand it meant I didnt have to worry about people not knowing I had found/taken the moveables :-)
