I wanted to search for a specific attribute around Antwerp Belgium
The preview shows the correct city and the caches listed are indeed near Antwerp in Belgium
But when I click display on map
I get the map for Flanders, Louisiana and no caches
Tested on:
Chromium Version 91.0.4472.114 (Official Build) snap (64-bit)Firefox 90.0 (64-bit)
Kubuntu 21.04 -

After updating to the 8.53.0 app version, my souvenir showed the same as before: 161.
Out of curiosity I logged out of the app and back in and now it only shows 50 just like you!
So it seems to be a bug introduced in 8.53.0
-
I noticed yesterday that the app is displaying a incorrect number of souvenirs.
I checked again this morning and nothing has changed
The app only shows 50 and the website shows 289
Samsung S21 UltraAndroid 11
App Version: 8.53.0
I've tried logging out and back in and pulling down to force a refresh, still says 50

However as you say this is off topic for the App release notes discussion
I agree but I wasn't sure if people knew and it will likely take a while before something FP% is implemented in the app so I thought I'd mention it to help people.
Just updated the app to 8.51.2 and as usual you have to logout and back in again to see the new feature. -
For everyone asking for the FP ratio, you can use the project-gc user script: https://project-gc.com/Home/UserScript
Which adds the ratio on the website.
You can also use the tool https://project-gc.com/Statistics/TopFavWilson to find caches based on that ratio
-
I think you might be better of asking this in the PGC Q&A https://project-gc.com/qa/
As GC is leading and PGC just "downloads" the information using the API so they should be able to see why the difference is there
-
Do you have a paid membership with PGC?
because if not, PGC will only update your stats once a week

Hi,
Is there something wrong with the website at the moment?
It's really slow and keeps logging me out.
While writing this I got kicked out again and now it's not allowing me to login at allGMT+01:00 14:18

On the bottom left there is a big green button for selecting map types. Google or Leaflet
Isn't that what you are looking for?

I just tried to help someone who no longer has access to the original email address and was unable to add a second email address as well.
We keep getting a error that the password is wrong even after successfully logging in with said password.We tried on Firefox 89.0 and Edge 91.0.864.41

For me it's:
"Paterboärn 2020+1" https://coord.info/GC7Q7Q7 05/06/2021 and
"Publish - Das Mega-Film-Spektakel" https://coord.info/GC8CP99 20/06/2021
I'm guessing that as long as they need to archive Mega events, reschedule them because of Covid and than re-publish them.
it's not something they are going to look into for fixing

Other log types (Found it, Attended) are past tense as well.
In that case shouldn't "Deactiveren" (disable) also be in the past tense?

Archive
Whether you own a physical cache, an EarthCache, Virtual Cache, or Event Cache—you can now archive your cache directly from the Geocaching® mobile app. Archiving a geocache permanently removes it from the app and from Geocaching.com. This action cannot be undone.The Dutch translation of the logtype is "Archived" (past tense) instead of "Archive"
Or should it be "to archive"?-

As far as your other claims and assumptions about Geocaching HQ's motives are concerned, it would be appreciated if you could stop spreading unfounded claims like this that cause angst for other players.
To be clear. I'm not claiming anything. It was purely based on my feelings.
But I will tone down my assumptions and try to stick to the facts when reporting bugs
It's just that something similar happened at work with a software supplier who ignored our bug reports and than introduced a new feature to "replace" the old one which didn't have the same functionality which gave us troubles with customers.
So Sorry, I might have overreacted a bit. -

Thank you for reporting this. We have passed this along to the Engineering team.
Week 3 since I reported this bug and the it's still there.
It's starting to feel like this is an attempt by HQ to push everyone to the newer search map.
Like they want everyone to use newer features so they're not giving any priority to fixing older features which they break when implementing the new features.
I wouldn't dare try this at work. To introduce a new feature, breaking an existing feature and than ignore the bug reports for 3 weeks.

As we experiment and attempt to offer updates quickly, we expect some improvements to happen in steps and perhaps a bit of instability along the way. We are okay with this as it allows us to learn and build better tools faster.
Will further updates on the Adventure Lab app be given here or in the release notes section?
On 3/30/2021 at 10:03 PM, Geocaching HQ said:'An Adventure requires that a player travel to specific locations or perform specific activities in the real world. Players are not allowed to use apps, devices, programs, or any other means to misrepresent their device’s location for any purpose in the Adventure Lab® mobile app.
You mean this?
Is the message about actions in the past, even tough the text is in the present?
Is it an issue to have a fake gps app on your phone?
(I program as well and sometimes need to test GPS functionality in the browser)On 3/30/2021 at 10:03 PM, Geocaching HQ said:some of the decisions we make will favor welcoming new audiences, rather than trying to integrate Adventure Lab into the existing geocaching game
Wouldn't it be better at that point to completely separate adventure labs from geocaching?
Looking at the original purpose when they where introduced and how much labs are not geocaches why integrate this into geocaching at all wouldn't it be better of as a separate game?
Some feedback:
- Add multi language support for both the text and the questions. (I had to shorten my questions/text to have enough room to add English and German to my lab cache besides Dutch)
- Maybe a different icon for a partially completed labcaches?
-
Notify owners when their lab is played or when a log is placed.
- I created a labcache last year and have not really looked at it since because there is no reason to. It feels kind of empty to create a labcache because there is no further interaction like with geocaches where you can read the logs

Any update on this?
In the hopes that borders will open up later this year I'm trying to plan a geocaching holiday and I can do it but this bug makes the process much slower

Same thing happening to me. When will this be resolved? Trying to plan a trip and have limited time to do so.
Same here. There is a new Geotour in the Netherlands which I want to start with this weekend (72 caches).
Because of this bug I tried using the search map to complete my planning which I found to be a horrible experience.
Please fix the browse map as the search map is not suited for this kind of planning and it requires more clicks to do the same tasks

In the app you can currently sort lists by distance, name A-Z, and favorite points. I'd consider this pretty comprehensive.
Within a list yes.
I'm talking about sorting the lists
Lists in the app are always sorted by last edit which annoys me a lot.

Then the owner may use the Message Center or send an email to the other geocacher. You don't need new tools...
Than why do I get a popup allowing me to enter something when I delete a image from a log?
wouldn't that fall under the same logic?

This morning I still had the disappearing act from my other post when clicking the "Pocket Queries" button.
The search button still has that issue but the "Pocket Queries" button issue has replaced that of the forever spinning "loading" icon. -

In the Geocaching® app (8.47.0 or higher):
- Sort souvenir names from A to Z
- Sort souvenirs by newest first.
- Your sorting selection is sticky, so it's always in the order you prefer.
Are there plans to add these sorting options to more than just the souvenirs?
Because I would really love to see this on the lists in the app as well.-

Having a required space to include a short explanation why a CO decided to delete a log helps both the CO explain their actions
When you delete a image from a log you do have that option. But for some reason you don't when deleting the log itself.
I've never understood why you can do so on a image but not the log itself.
I agree that it would be a good feature.
Especially because all the new geocachers that have started due to covid don't seem to notice it when you send them a message trough the message center.
You ask them to not mention a bonus code in the log or delete a image which shows the hiding location and they don't respond.
But when you delete something they get an email to which most of them respond. Being able to add the explanation to that seems like a good idea.-

Abnormal use of mobile data
in Official Geocaching® apps

Same issue here. Using offline lists but the data consumption of the app is huge
