+Yitzichok Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Why is the geochecker feature not available in the app? Also, once I solve the puzzle on the website, why don't the coordinates update in the app? And one more thing, after I solved the puzzle using geochecker on the website, the icon in the app changed from a question mark to a puzzle piece, anyone know why? (see attached photo) Quote Link to comment

Try swiping down on the cache page in the app, which forces a refresh. If the cache has been previously opened in the app, everything is cached and doesn't refresh automatically.

(see attached photo) The puzzle piece indicates the geocache has solved coordinates. I even use this feature for my own puzzle and multi geocaches so they show on the map at the final location. I find it so odd that the official checker does not show up on the app! The other ones do. Quote Link to comment

Sure, ok, that's hard(ish) to code in... But the thing that annoys me most is that they don't even show the checker attribute on the app! I often do simple puzzles on my phone and if I want to see to the checker, I have to open the website instead of just checking attributes. Oh well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

It would be nice if the app would add a line to the description if the checker was enabled, though. Cachly does it well. Quote Link to comment
