Description

GCBuddy is the perfect tool for the serious geocacher when solving multi-caches. With this application you can record all found values for A...Z and use them to automatically calculate new waypoint coordinates. The final cache coordinates are also calculated as soon as all required puzzles have been solved and entered. You can also record the exact spot where you parked your car or bike, so you can find it back after caching.

FIRST LOOK: To get an idea of the functionality, read the Quick Start Guide on the gcbuddy.com website.

List of possibilities:
==========================
- Management of multiple caches in a list of downloaded caches
- Download from geocaching.com, opencache.uk and other opencaching sites
- Prepare a multi-cache at home, also possible on your PC or Mac using a simple web interface.

- Navigate to the parking place
- Enter answers to questions at each waypoint
* Common text calculations like word value

Geweldige app voor geocaching

Deze geweldige app is nu nog verbeterd! Nu hoef je de nodige gegevens niet meer in te typen met dat kleine keyboard van de iPhone! Ook switchen naar igtc en terug is niet meer nodig omdat de meest gebruikte tools in geobuddy zijn ingebouwd. Dit is mijn ideale geobuddy, vooral bij het fietscachen.

Truly amazing

This app is just amazing for solving/tracking multi geocaches.

Keeping track of waypoints and clues, taking pictures from tags/hints while tagging them to the wp.

Having the most common calculations automatically available.

Most of the time it recognizes coordinates to paste in the location fields.

Being able to use a webserver to edit caches up front on your pc is a big help.

And today discovered a new feature I didn’t know was there.
I missed a clue and ended up in the wrong place. We knew which one was wrong. Then saw the option to vary the clue and see the effect instantly on the map which made it immediately obvious what would likely be the right value.

The app is not all perfect thought as it is showing its age.

For example the keyboard is overlapping with newer iPhone models motion gesture bar at the bottom making it a bit hard to enter bottom characters from the keyboard.
Also I miss the “press and hold spacebar“ to quickly move the cursor while editing.

UPDATE:

Only 2 weeks after my review the app got updated and the keyboard issue is fixed!
Also the “press and hold spacebar “ is not an issue as you can just hold and drag the cursor in the input field.

Awesome!

Developer Response ,

Keyboards are fixed in V10.9.
Please email me in case you experience other problems.

Hmm niet al te best

Deze app is niet gemaakt voor de basic member maar meer voor de premium.
Als basic heb je maar 3 coaches die je per dag volledig kan opslaan voor offline gebruik. En de hulp programma's voor berekening en waypoint berekening kan je ook in gratis apps terug vinden.
Dan maar beter de app van geocaching zelf, werkt makkelijk en is gelijk voor iedereen.
