    CacheMate for Android

    in GPS technology and devices

    Posted

    Release - CacheMate 1.3.3 (Google Android)

    This release fixes a bug, and adds a couple of small enhancements. When geocache attribute support was initially added, negative attributes weren't properly handled... now, they are. The enhancements consist of an optional timestamp in logs sent via Twitter, and auto-capitalization added to edit fields in the app where appropriate.

     

    I just tried it out, nice additions! Over the past 3 days, I found 9 caches using only Cachemate on my Droid, didn't even touch my GPS. Although next time I go in the woods, I think I'll use the GPS over the Droid... my hands get too dirty and too many chances to drop it. I finally signed up on Twitter, and now quickly click the links in my tweets to go back and add all my caches. I even found the way (that seems fastest) to get routing from a cache. Once I select the cache I want, I go to edit record, copy the coords (do a long press on the field), then go to navigator and paste them in.

     

    Thanks for the continued fine work!

     

    I have found this discussion thread to be Very helpful with my new EVO although I have one issue - I log via Twitdroyd but cannot find my logs on Geocaching.com. Can anyone help me?

     

    I gave up on logging into field notes or directly into a cache log through Twidroid - but NOW i really need help on how to add field notes - the choice to send is only email NOT SMS and I did setup the SMS account successfully through TM. HELP - PLEASE

    Need help British Crossword puzzle cache

    in United Kingdom and Ireland

    I think so; at least, I have a set of coordinates which is near a road near Raleigh. If I lived in the area, I'd be confident enough to go to that location and expect to find the cache there.

     

    If I'm correct, solving the crossword clue is 90% of the way towards getting the coordinates - though there's a BIG intuitive leap you have to make to get the last 10%. It's really a very neat idea and no, I've never seen it done before.

     

     

     

    Thank you to all over across the pond. With the reading of this past conversation, we were able to solve the mystery and logged the find this PM. Richard's statement is so true and this is a well done puzzle, just mind boggling.

     

    Again thank you to all who posted messages.

    POI and waypoint to car navigation portables

    That is what I have been doing - all I get is an orange flag indicating approach and then a winner flag when I have arrived. No treasure box and only the geocache as a flag for the one I am driving towards. No geocaches close by are indicated. I have uploaded the group as a POI and still no boxes. Just the choice of choosing to drive to the closest. I appreciate the answers. Even the techs at garmin were at a loss with my request.
