Ok so have you validated your account? After creating it you should have received an e-mail that contains a link you must follow for final validation.

 

Regarding connection performance.. that's probably more to do with YOUR location where you are trying to use the app...

Same with me today. It's been happening on and off for weeks now. Just searching the forums and the admins are very silent. What's going on ????

I've been a registered member now for what, four years? But can't log in via my wife's iPhone- same issue, says my acct needs validation

 

(*facepalm*)

 

We were hoping to get out with the kids for the year's first caches today since it's a public holiday here in Canuckland.

The API, which is what you need to log in to the site from the iPhone, went down this morning at 2:00 am PDT. It has been fixed and everyone should now be able to log in to the site. If you still cannot log in, please email contact@geocaching.com and we will be happy to help.

 

We are sorry for the inconvenience. We'll do more checks over the weekend so if it does go down again during our dark hours we'll be more responsive.

Hello. there is a dedicated iphone subforum with many threads about this topic already here

Looks that actual issue is fixed, anyway now i found a (mutch) better iPhone APP.

 

Dissapinting Issues:

 

- Your Infrastructure actual looks very instable!

- Your app not using Google Maps (including sattelite view)

- No offline usability (Download Cashes, download maps)

- No Support in EMEA Timezone

- Response Time inaccaptable

- Performance dissapointing

 

For a free Tool and a free membership - dissapinting but OK

But for a paid app and annual membership - this is not accaptable!

 

I think you have to invest in Developent, quality control and infrasturcture.

 

Will see whats happen in near future - actual your app is not really a great show.

 

Cheers,

Michael

 

P.S. i dont want to complain, i want to show issues to help you to increase your solution

As it was said before, you may want to bring this up in the iphone app forum. Many of your issues will have been discussed at great lengths there. You will find that you there is offline usability and that is the reason why there is no google maps. The Groundspeak iphone app is a quality app, and they are quite open and honest about it's shortcomings. However, nobody can fix something if you don't tell them there is a problem.
