    The only way to not make found caches public is to not log them. For hidden caches you absolutely cannot make them private or else how will people know to go look for them? If you don't want people to go look for them then you need to not list them on the public website. 

    No I meant on the profile, ovbs it would still show up in logs that you had found it, and people could still find your geocaches on the map. But it would be nice if there was an option to not have them all collated on your profile.

    I was just logged out from website and the official app, and my username/password no longer works...

    Yep, you’re not the only one.

    I don't know if it is related, but I can't connect to geocaching.com website anymore. It says my account doesn't exist!

    Same, i think the API (servers) is dead lol.

    Yep, I'm on the prowl for a 60csx. I love my new phone, and I really like the Locus app for it ($11 well spent!) but I am also concerned about use out on hikes. So, a handheld it will be. Just like old times :)

    I often use my phone on hills/mountains as I always have it with me anyway and I'm not that likely to drop it. But signal becomes a problem if you don't have premium to download the caches in remote areas.

    Yesterday my phone came, and I got it activated. This thing is fancy. My old phone was junk! I installed Locus Map Pro and the geocaching addon for it, and am going to have a *blast*. For placing caches though, it sounds like a phone won't be enough- is that correct? If that's the case then I'll buy a 60csx on ebay for $100 or so, and call it good. Does that sound reasonable? 

    Yeah most/all phones just don't have accurate enough GPS's to take reliable coordinates for hiding caches.

  6. Tbh I mostly use my phone (with the official app) purely because its always on me and works well enough for most caches. I only use my GPS for hiding caches and if a cache is deep in the wilderness. I'm pretty sure Garmin has geocache live GPS's so if i would get a new one i would probably get that... idk I've not looked that much into it.
