About this app

Free trial version of the popular geocaching app GeoCaching Buddy.

The ultimate tool for the serious geocacher when solving multi-caches, powered by Geocaching Live. This buddy app will remember every clue found and will calculate any derived clue or new waypoint for you. Waypoints can be formulas or projections. These and the final cache formula will be evaluated the moment all clues are found and entered. The app can record you parking spot so you'll be able to return to your car after finding the cache.

Not great. In theory, the app sounds great, but it's not intuitive. The layout isn't bad but that's about all I can say. It doesn't capture the formula at all, and you have to keep switching screens to get to the one you want. When I first used it in the field, the scales were all out, and where it showed a distance of 100ft, it actually meant 350 metres (verified by putting the coordinates into c:geo). I certainly wouldn't pay for the full version of this app and I've uninstalled this one too.
