Since friday, I and other friends have not been able to download any cartidges with Whereyougo. It just says "Download: Error" when we try to download the cartidge from the Whereyougo app. But we can download the cartidge from the website and put it in the folder containing the other cartidges and it works.

Even this doesn't work for some users: https://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LUID=2d07ef88-f141-4f58-9b77-ea5af72680c4 Quote Link to comment
+SpiritGuide Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 The Wherigo.com website recently changed the download URL to HTTPS for security reasons where previously that only applied to logins. Apps downloading from the site need to be updated. Since the WhereYouGo is barely being maintained it may not ever be able to directly download cartridges now. But there will be a new Geooh GO release this week to support the change. The iPhone apps have even greater problems. Quote Link to comment

However for Wherigo.com was that really an issue, is there any transmission data that required protecting? Quote Link to comment
+DrJeckyloftheDunes Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Is there an easy work around? I can't find where my cartridges are stored in my phone. I was trying to find them to drop the new downloaded cartridge in that folder. Quote Link to comment

I was trying to find them to drop the new downloaded cartridge in that folder. On my phone, cartridges can be found in <internal memory>/Android/Data/menion.android.whereyougo/WIG/. I had some difficulties copying the cartridge from the Download folder to that folder, as the Android system changes the extension of the file. After the copy you will have to manually rename the file extension back to gwc. Quote Link to comment

It even stayed in the gwc extension for me. Quote Link to comment
+Lynx Humble Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Unable to load a cartridge in WhereYouGo with my Samsung Galaxy S7.... Guess I should have checked before going out of the country while I had access to a computer. Quote Link to comment
