Pros and cons of Cachly - Geocaching app for iPhone and iPad

Cachly - Geocaching app good for

We are beginners at geocaching and this is a great app to use. Simple to use and looks great.

very happy with this app way better than an official GC app. way more useful features and love the ability to see a cache in a glimpse. one thing i would like to see added is when you log TBs and when you already save it it would show if it is visiting or being dropped off. few times i have accidentally selected to drop a TB off instead of visit and had to reclaim it. it would also be nice to see souvenirs :) over all awesome app. well done !

This is probably the best geocaching app ever! It is totally worth the money!

Since the beginning this app has been getting better leaps and bounds over the official GC app. The creator Nic has been great at taking user feedback and suggestions and actually giving geocachers what theyre looking for. Great features and friendly interface. Its always nice to be able to jump on a new app and immediately figure out how it works. For iPhone there is no comparison and this is THE app that you need. Its only getting better and better!

This app was already amazing, but this recent update has added several quality of life enhancements and Im really happy. Nice one.

I heard a podcast raving about this app and how much better it was than the Groundspeak app so I figured I would give it a try. Fabulous app. I do a fair amount of travel and love the offline maps feature and the easy translation feature for cache descriptions and hints in a foreign language. Highly recommend.

Some bad moments

Do not pay for this app! My daughter downloaded a free app and it had the exact same information! This app offers nothing Worth $4.99. You can get "extra info", but on only 3 geos before you have to pay for a membership! Why did I pay for this app?!

Like many others I listened to the good reviews about this alternative to Groundspeak and their greed. I paid $5 and had no idea that there is a $30 annual membership if you intended to hunt more than 3 caches per day because that is needed to download the full cache description including hints. The app works fine, but the greed continues. This borders on false advertising since in-app (membership) purchases dont appear to be disclosed in the App Store description

Finally found my favorite geocaching app. Very powerful but easy to use. Thanks!

Love how streamlined this app is. Tired of all the other clunky apps for geocaching. And how about those features?! Sweet!

This app has everything the "official" (and $$) app has, but fortunately a lot more! I love the integration of Google or iPhone maps to give driving directions to the cache, the responsive and smoother loading maps, and even the ability to load custom .gpx files! Love it!

I’m not entirely sure what this app gets me that the free one doen’t (since I have a paid membership) but for something I use a few times a week $5 is cheap for a very slick interface. I have a few requests, and the author has an interactive way to post those in the website.. Hope to see them soon :)
