Going to add my reply to the negative responses. The new search layout is terrible. I say terrible, because if it were good I wouldn't have had to come to these forums to see if it was my computer having issues or if the new search is garbage. If you don't get it yet: my computer's fine. When you put in the search bar, you should have made it search by all the functions listed AND/OR by keyword. Shouldn't have to browse a forum to figure out there's a pico menu with more options. Thanks, but fix it. :|

It takes about 2 seconds to find nearest waymarks from a geocache page. If that's too much of a hassle for geocachers, so be it. The OP was about the geocaching app. If you're sitting at your desk or on a laptop, then yes - it takes 2 seconds. If you're out in the field hunting caches with a smart phone or a GPS with a GPX file, it's not quite that easy. First, your quote at the bottom is hilarious. Secondly, I've been looking at a geocache page (pretty vague, but I assume you both meant a cache description page) and I can't find anything that links or mentions waymarks.

As an FYI, I don't use anything but the default statistics on my profile and it hasn't updated in 16 hours and I can't get it to update. I've tried clearing cookies, logging out/in, and CTRL+F5 to refresh, but none of it has fixed it. Not sure where to report it either. I looked through GC.com's Help Center and nothing points to the issue I'm having. Came here to see if anyone has the same issue.

That line right there is why I used to like caching. I wish the COs in my area had your passion for quality. Unfortunately, the more I've cached in my area, the more I'm despising it. We have a "league" in this area that put out hundreds of caches with dorky or quirky (LARGE) pictures and descriptions and hints that are absolutely asinine. Here's a few examples: Cheese or Beef or Smudgy or The Kiss. Most of these have a huge picture in the description (terrible for those of us caching on a phone) and stupid descriptions and titles that have absolutely nothing to do with that area. I liked caching because it took me new places and I learned things about those places or I simply enjoyed being in those places. Not much anymore though. I've checked out Waymarking, but there's no app for it and an app would make it easier on my phone. I'd dump this Geocaching in an instant if Waymarking were easier to use.
