Aloha Moma Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 How do I download caches to my phone to go geocaching in area with no phone service? i have been geocaching for years, but on an Android. Now I’m on an iPhone and this app is different than what I’m used to. i can’t find any method to download on my phone, within the geocaching app. Quote Link to comment
geoawareUSA9 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Offline lists are a premium membership feature in the official geocaching app. Quote Link to comment

How did you accomplish this with your iPhone? I am a premium member so some of this may not work for you as a basic member. What I do if I am going caching in a questionalble service area is to create a pocket query of the area. I then download the PQ file and put it on my Garmin ETrex as a back up. When I pull up lists on my Android phone, the PQ is listed there, and I click the three dots on the right hand side to download for offline use. I do this while I have cell service - then when I am out of cell range, the GPS onthe phone takes over and I can go find the caches that are on the list. 1 Quote Link to comment
