Only 1 waypoint displayed when navigating


Recommended Posts

There was a brilliant feature in the geocaching app (Android user here) that I took for granted. Like many geocaching related apps you can add your own custom waypoints within each separate cache page. The cool feature was that when you selected a waypoint so you could see it on the map, ALL OTHER non-hidden waypoints for that geocache would display as well. This is nice for a virtual cache with 10+ stages scattered around, it allows you to plot a course that is efficient and doesn't backtrack too much. 

I use this for a bunch of different situations and now something has changed so you can only see one waypoint at a time, the posted coordinates, and your current position. All other waypoints are hidden from view on the map.

 

Is anyone else facing this, and is there a way to correct it back to showing all waypoints?

Instead of navigating from the waypoint, navigate on the main page. All waypoints will be shown on the map.

@CheekyBrit, is there a particular cache you experience this with, or is this happening for all caches you view on the app?

It was all geocaches within the app but the answer @Max and 99 gave works perfectly. From within the waypoints tab text list, I select the posted coordinates and it shows everything. I can also select other waypoints from within the map to see which is which and it all still displays. What I was doing wrong was from the waypoints tab text list, selecting custom waypoints I had added, then it only shows that one and the posted coords. 

Nice fix @Max and 99!
