    An easy-to use Android app that works well in the UK?

    in United Kingdom and Ireland

    Posted

    Hi everyone,

     

    I'm asking this on behalf of a friend, so please be patient :)

     

    He has an Android phone and would like to know if there are any easy-to-use, free (or relatively cheap) apps for his Android phone that work well in the UK.

     

    Can anyone recommend something please? Or give any other advice? I know I could have posted this in the Tech Help forum but I'm worried that certain apps may work well in the US but not be so good for the UK.

     

    Thanks very much!

    cachers not following page guidelines

    I have entered a park after hours to grab an FTF on many occasions. All of them are valid logs because it is NOT up to GS or a CO to decide when or where I break a law. I will enter a closed park again.

     

    You're giving Geocachers a bad name and I hope you get arrested. But whatever you chose to do, it IS up to the CO and GS whether or not to allow your log. They own the listing site and the cache container. So if either of them decides it's not a valid log, it isn't one.

    I've looked at the cache and it's had lots of positive comments, it sounds like a really great hide :unsure: But perhaps you should write a note on the webpage to say that TBs and coins shouldn't be left there just for the time being? That way, anyone who goes there looking for trackables to steal will soon get bored as there won't be any. You can change the page back again when the situation seems safer.

    Cache definitely gone, debris everywhere, windows smashed out, I fear the cache may have had a watery end.

    Im saying I found it as I was definitely in the right place but as the previous log, definitely not there any longer.

    What Do You Think About This?

    I do wish that there was the facility for cachers to offer to adopt an old cache that is due to be archived due to owner negligence. I recently did maintenance on two caches which have been around for many years, because I thought that the owner was probably bogged down with school exams and couldn't cope with responding to the "Needs Maintenance" logs. I also tried to email him but got no reply. These caches are in a glorious location and has been there for many years. They are also "base level" caches each containing half the co-ords for a bonus ammo can cache which hasn't been archived, but no-one will be able to find it now.

     

    Sadly the owner didn't respond to the Reviewer who has just archived them. The caches (which were in good order) are now geolitter. I would have offered to keep them going if that was possible :laughing:

     

    What I intend to do is go to the location, check the caches are there and are in good order, place new logbooks and then open them as new caches with a similar name and the word "Reborn" in their title.
