One of the worst navigation apps I've ever used. You can advise the free version of the app to your worst enemies they might even get lost.
Cannot login with Gmail... Get info: dissalowed_useragent which is really annoying
Great addon for Locus, really usefull, thanks!
Doesnt even work without having to instal another app!!!
Love the extra extensions
Will not download on any device.
Won't link with my account
It's so very good
Use with Locus maps for Geocaching. Nice one dev's!
I tried this but it just won't let me log in to my geocaching account so is useless. It's a shame as the only reason I got locus map was for caching
Usefull app
Gave up. Uninstalled. Kept asking me to validate my email address after setting up the account.. Done so 5 times.
GC for locus doesn't download listing data for caches anymore ? I have caches downloaded maybe 3 months ago and there are basic info ,LISTING, waypoints ... but now I can't download listing data..is it OK ?
I just paid the upgrade fee to Locus Pro, and now this add-on won't open the live map. It gives me an error message stating I need to set some permissions in Locus Pro. I did, several times, but I still get the same message. Not happy!
I am very satisfied, but for last week, I haven't been able to see caches on the map, just a few ones in certain area, the other ones don't appear at all. How can I fix it, pls?
Why I need gps position for search now? In older version was enough move map to search position...
Does the basics, long winded approach.
This app has a bit of a learning curve, but it's worth it! Once I familiarized myself with it I never went back to any other GPS app. And the plugins are awesome!
Great for geocaching. Locus makes geocaching without internet smooth and easy. With internet access it is even better.
The best app for android
Not showing any cashes on the map even after enabling periodic updates in locus.
Geocaching for Locus is an excellent addition to the Locus package. The authors for Locus and G4L are excellent and quite responsive.
A great add-on for a great app.
Previous version worked fine...this one just gives me a no network error on three devices all apps that use data work so its this app that has issues....please fix
Sorry guys, but you are unfair to the developer if you want to judge him for the Groundspeak politics. You are crying on the wrong grave!
I think this app is better than the official geocaching app by groundspeak. Please add the function to upload all recent logs at once! I don't know why everybody is complaining because the app is not the reason why you can only download 4 gc in an hour. Everybody wants everything for free. Thats bullshit. A membership for such a geat game is only 30 bucks a year, come on guys ...
It is totally unacceptable to force us to buy premium accounts . We make this game, not GS so why do we have to pay for a game made by me,you,my friends, your friends and so on? Please remove the use of GS api and let it work like before, or give us the option whether to use or not gs API. Thx
Please let us use the old way of downloading.. 3 caches per day for regular user is a joke.
This addon has gone from being a backup caching app (mostly because of the static map ability of locus) to being a primary tool. The proximity alert is awesome and means you can enjoy the scenery more while hiking not worrying about missing caches.
