    AirTags

    When the air-tags came about, i did not think much about it. Then one day, i was thinking how one could use one of these to help find a cache in the wild, but not a TB. Now as for myself, i would happily take a TB with a tracker on it. Why? Well first; i do (yes always) when loading a cache look to see if it has any TB's AND I ALWAYS read what the TB owner has posted about the TB. It also helps in notifying a TB owner if the cache states the TB is there, but is not... then you can notify the TO that "Sorry, your trackable unfortunately has been taken and/or not logged or stolen." Second; i could care less about a TB having a trackable (as long as its description stated such) and would gladly move it along for the TO. For me it this adds a whole new experience to caching. Now, i know there are times when you grab a TB and perhaps that day you do not come across another cache suitable for the TB and thus can not drop it and end up holding on to it for a bit. I can however see where a TB with a trackable ends back at your residence and one may feel uncomfortable about that. As for me, i do not care as long as the TO has stated this in his TB description. For me, bottom line... Read Trackable Description Before Taking The Trackable From The Cache It Was Placed In. Oh yes, and stop holding on TB's, move them along ASAP.

  2. I have had this same issue recently. Always download offline data for each list that I make for that days outing. We live in a very rural area and lose cell signal often so its a must to have that data downloaded and to have google maps offline areas downloaded as well. The past two times we went out and lost cell coverage, all but one list (one we are not using) would disappear. However, if you backed out and looked on the map view, they were all there and could select them and read about them, get cords to enter into a GPS (if necessary). ...Android 8.0 - Latest Geocaching App update.
  3. Ok... Thanks for the heads up on that. Very much appreciated.
  4. noncentric... Thank You! ...I thought you might be able to use that "Save As Pocket Query" link, just was not sure.
  5. RuideAlmeida... Never tried that before... will try. Thank you.
  6. This may have been asked before... If you are on Geocaching.com and looking at the Geocaching Maps view hunting for a group of caches in an area you will be, with the group of caches in view on screen, is there a way to save to a "List" or "Save As Pocket Query" what you see on the screen only or do you have to use one of the caches as a reference point and create a list or query within a certain radius? THANKS AHEAD FOR YOUR HELP and INPUT!
