LissaSue Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Hey guys! I was wondering if there was a way to set up alerts for my phone when new caches are placed in my area? Is that possible with just the basic membership or do you need to be a premium member? Quote Link to comment

+The A-Team Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Evan if you have a premium membership they still wont send it to your phone. The site won't directly send a text message, but you can have the emails converted to text messages if your cell provider has an email-to-SMS service. See option 2 on the page linked to by Pup Patrol. Quote Link to comment

Not sure what you're saying there. I can't tell you how many times I've read logs from cachers that say "out looking for caches when notification of the new ones popped up on the phone", so yes, you can get them sent to your phone. Would be rather useless for folks if they couldn't get them on their phones. B. Quote Link to comment
