We have been geocaching for 6 years and tried a number of apps as well as different GPSrs. Cachly is without doubt the best option out there. It is user friendly which importantly means you can get started very quickly at a basic level. However as you want to do more and more the capability is there for you to learn. It was our goto on our recent 6 week European trip where the filter system combined with quickly created and updated offline lists meant we could manage well despite not using constant mobile data. In addition the off line high quality maps were brilliant giving us not only the most up to date and most accurate mapping option for us for geocaching, but also it was the best for general navigation both by road and on foot. Very happy customers.

Thank you!!
Best Geocaching App in the market

I was introduced to Cachly around 10 years ago and I must admit I did find it a little overwhelming at the time as it had so many features. Overtime I came to learn more and more of the functionality within the app and it just keeps getting better and better. Since the recent advent of an annual subscription I was a little weary as I had paid for the app in the first place, but when you consider what you get and average that cost on a weekly basis. It’s a very efficient and valuable tool and the new features are equally awesome. As such, I now fully support the new subscription service as this is clearly allowing for even more features and the online support is second to none.
Bug (?) report

Hi Cachly, love your app! I just wanted to report what might be a bug or something to otherwise iron out. I’ve noticed when looking through my logs that, within each date, they appear in the order I must have posted them in, rather than chronologically. For example, I drafted GC1A, then GC2B, then GC3C. The following day I found and drafted GC4D. I went through them later and for whatever reason posted my drafts in this order: GC2B, GC4D, GC3C, and lastly, GC1A. On Cachly, my logs list will appear from top to bottom as follows: GC4D (as it was most recently found), then GC1A, then GC3C, then GC2B.
Must Get for every Geocacher!

I have been using Cachly for many years now, and found in excess of 6,000 caches solely with this app! I wouldn’t be able to geocache without it! There’s too many amazing features I love to remember and list them all, but there’s not much it can’t do, and heaps of things it does that I still haven’t used yet, which says to me that there’s filters and options for every occasion! Well done to Nick for developing this app, and a huge thanks for keeping it updated and fresh! If I ever see an Apple user without this app in field, I always ask them, Why not?!
