About this app

c:geo is an open source, full-featured, always ready-to-go unofficial client for geocaching.com and offers basic support for other geocaching platforms (such as Opencaching). It does not require a web browser or exports - just install it and start right away.

Main features:
- View caches on a Live Map
- Use Google Maps or OpenStreetMaps
- Search for caches by various criteria
- Log your finds online or offline
- Store cache information on your device
- Create and manage waypoints
- Navigate using compass, map, or other apps
- Import/Export GPX files
- Full support for trackables

c:geo is a simple to use but powerful geocaching client with a lot of additional features. All you need to get started is an existing account on geocaching.com or another geocaching platform (like Opencaching).
Find caches using the live map or by using one of the many search functions.

Navigate to a cache or a waypoint of a cache with the built-in compass function, the map or hand over the coordinates to various external apps (e.g. Radar, Google Navigation, StreetView, Locus, Navigon, Sygic and many more).

Store cache information to your device directly from geocaching.com as well as via GPX file import to have it available whenever you want.
You can manage your stored caches in different lists and can sort and filter them according to your needs.
Stored caches together with offline map files or static maps can be used to find caches without an internet connection (e.g. when roaming).
Logs can be posted online or stored offline for later submission or exported via field notes.

Search and discover trackables, manage your trackable inventory and drop a Trackable while posting a cache log.

Ratings and reviews

This is my go to caching app, but it has recently become frustrating to use. It will lose all of the caches, and I will need to reboot the app for them to show up. Also, the app will sometimes stop responding to touching the screen, also needing a reboot. Very frustrating, especially if you have no signal and you have preloaded caches.

When I got my first smartphone this was the recommended app for geocaching with an Android phone. I really like the versatility of the list, it keeps caches organized by type, date, oldies or however you want to set it up. The search feature is helpful as you can find things by both name, GC code or trackable. Better organized than the official app as you can swipe from page to page instead of backing up.

This has been the go-to app for ny wife and me. A solid five star--until recently. The map no longer shows all caches in some areas, especially caches we have found. We have checked our settings, and in any case, it does show some in all areas, and all in some areas. We used to be able to store caches from the description page, using the top right hand place on the page. Same as "log" etc. Now we can store only from the map. Even with Wi-Fi, that doesnt always work. We have updated the app.
