Navigation does not work in appropriate way on Android phone. On iPhone it shows actual navigation, but my Samsung Galaxy is limited to a straight line, quite useless as I am not flying. Another issue is map quality. With identical settings the map is significantly better on an iPhone. Unfortunately Groundspeak support response was generic and useless when contacted about these problems. If you want to piss off a paying customer, send them a canned response. In general I am quite disappointed.

I would like to have a way of marking comments as "spoiler alert". So those that don't want to see can not click to see. But those, like me, that need all the help we can get. Can click to see hints or photos of how to find the cache. I hate DNFs OLD: Awesome way to get some exercise & see places right around you that you didn't know were there. The free version is great all on its own. But got the membership to support geocaching.

Geocaching as a phenomenon is very very cool. It encourages people to interact with their environment and each other in a very physical and personal way, which seems increasingly rare as the world becomes more focused on digital interactions. That's all great. The problem is the app itself. Not that it's poorly laid out, but it restricts features behind the paywall that are free on the geocaching website, like access to certain (most) caches. Luckily, the website is very easy to use as well.

The app is still great for people who don't pay, HOWEVER, they changed how much it is a year and it's OUTRAGEOUS! It used to be $20 a year which is very reasonable. There's absolutely NO REASON for the prices they require now to have full access. It's the main reason I (and so many other friends and people I know) STOPPED geocaching. When you drop you price back to a reasonable amount, I'll pay for the subscription and give you 5☆.

I like the app when I am using it. But I noticed with one of the recent updates it now launches randomly. I will log onto my phone to be greeted with its video playing. I already have issues with battery life. I also wonder what else it is doing without my knowledge. I think I will uninstall and reinstall when we want to go hunt for caches. My wife and I both have premium memberships, which are less useful if the app is not installed.
