GA app for android

Post by whitewebbs » 12 July 16 6:06 pm

I use this app but cant get history caches to load. They don't load as 'other' , 'virtual' or 'locationless'. I can see them in history if I have looked at them through the website or load them if I know the code, but I would like them to load at the start. Thanks

You'll need to contact mtrax directly for support for this feature , he's the developer for GA Cacher

The link to the play store is here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... e.gcadroid

I actually contacted mtrax about the very same thing, in August. All the new icons for different cache types don't come through. He said he's renovating at present and his pc is packed up but will try to update the app soon.
Night caches don't show up either.

As per usual let me know if you have any issues

enjoy..

Probably a long shot, but worth a try...

Is there a way of creating a list of caches on the app? I like using the offline lists in the GC app because I usually have to pick and plan only a few each away trip due to non-geo-friendly company. Looking at the list only is much less confusing than the nearest 100 and much quicker and easier to navigate to when I'm the driver.

I would need to think about how to do this, but if it's a small amount of you could load them individually, otherwise it possibility could be done from a query.
Is there any way you can do this on the gca website?
Has GCA got a list feature?

You can tag your caches then have a query for those with that private tag. The query API would return the caches. Then you can have as many cache lists as you want.
