So Much Better Than Any other Geocaching app

I love this app. I even enjoyed the latest update, version 6.0 A couple years back, I resisted using Cachly but was forced to learn it after Geosphere was no longer supported. My husband trying to get me to use Cachly but I kept both applications until I could learn to use Cachly. There are so many features that it took me a bit of time to learn to use the new app. I loved that when I asked a question of support they answered immediately. I also like that there are searchable answers online. I also like that they have a Facebook group that posts questions and get answers from the developer, Nik Hubbard, as well as other people assign to help cachers get the most from the app. I thought I was an expert at Cachly but still discover new features every day. This Geocache app is intuitive, stores information when we have a bad signal, has amazing sorting capacity so I can look for Geocaches by favorites, or distance or 100 other things. We use Cachly to plan our trips. We just came back in February from a 10 state geocaching trip and the trip would not have been half as much fun had we not had this app. I wrote a review a year ago when I first started using Cachly. This is my third revision of that review and if I could give it six stars I would.

Thanks! Let me know how I can make it as good and better than Geosphere! 😀

Paid App Requires A Paid Subscription

Geocaching seems fun and interesting until you realize all the readily accessible means of accessing the hobby require paid subscription. I was hoping this app having a cost out of the gait wouldn’t be like the others but it is unfortunately worse.
The base and free geocaching app gives information on all basic caches with higher difficulty tiers only showing the location unless you pay the subscription. Cachly only gives basic information and the location of a cache. You can request the same information geocaching gives three times every 24 hours. The one benefit is there are some caches which geocaching does not show, though some that geocaching shows are not visible here meaning that slim benefit is essentially nonexistent.
Why in the world would anyone pay for this app if they could get more usage out of a free one?
I’m hoping I can get my money back simply out of principle of not paying a developer for this nonsense.

Best geocaching app out there

When I switched to iPhone I was turning into a hardcore geocacher. I had just reached 100 finds and wanted to expand my horizons to new geocaching apps. I asked around in an online Geocaching group and this app was recommended to me multiple times. I was ready to fully switch over but the only thing holding me back were how caches are represented by pins instead of the icons I was used to (I quickly got used to the pins and now I can’t go back).

Once I fully got used to Cachly, I realized everything I wanted from the Geocaching app was part of this app (better trail maps, dark mode, ability to see other nearby caches when you are navigating to a cache, etc.). That day was when I deleted the stock Geocaching app from my phone.

It is now easier (and more fun) to go caching because I can easily navigate to caches, log caches (and write much longer logs thanks to a better logging interface), manage trackables, and way more.

Although I haven’t used it much, the Apple Watch support will really help me in the future when I go kayaking, extreme tree climbing, or other activities when I don’t want to bring my phone with me.

I really appreciate this app and have been recommending it to everyone I know (recently my cousin downloaded it and he loves it as well, so you may be getting another glowing review soon). Thanks Nic for all the effort you put into Cachly.
