Would like to try this but I live in Montana. The hash is always unreachable unless one were a regular mountain climber. I am not at all able to do that, sadly.

A really useful geohashing app. I use it all the time and greatly appreciate the absence of nagging ads. I'd like one more feature when uploading to the Wiki. I'd like to be able to set the categories Expeditions and Coordinates reached / not reached. --Sourcerer Thanks!

Broken Running on Android 4.4.2 on an LG G3, this app no longer has full functionality. Location and mapping functions work, but there is no way to invoke settings, change locations, or do anything other than the most basic operations.

Great App! Does exactly what is says on the tin, and works great. Just hope a future update includes a daily notification on where my nearest geohash is located.
Today's a holiday It can't retrieve the stock info. Can I do that manually?
Needs an update. Missing functionality since upgrading to 4.4
Global hash I really love this app. Is it possible to add the global hash to the interface though? It would be great not to have to look it up everyday. Thanks!
XKCD comes to life. I love XKCD, and I love it when people create some of the cool ideas that come out of the comics. App works well no issues even on my old Droid Eris.
Power hog This app is fun, but it keeps running unless you manually stop it, even if you turn off the phone's GPS. This app could use the addition of an EXIT function to fully shut it down when not in use.
Globalhash Works very well. I find the map functionality to be excellent. But I wish there was a way to display the globalhash as well! Also, kinda minor, but it would be nice if you could store parts of the map locally, so that they are available offline.
Easy and fast Works really well, just like it is supposed to. Spontaneous adventures HO!
Locations in the Ocean? Great interface but needs a little more intelligence added to the algorithm? I live near a lot of water and the location is almost always in the Ocean.
Happy Hashing Works great, can't wait to get out there this summer!
Awesome App Just needs the ability to screenshot itself and it will be almost perfect! :-)
Does exactly what it says. Nice, clean, and functional. Thanks.
Geohasher Essential All you need to geohash except maybe a ninja sword and velociraptor repellent.
Exactly what it's supposed to From Calgary, Canada and use this all the time. Love it!
Works well. A widget that shows distance from the daily hash point would be nice.
Make the "global " more obvious, or take it out completely. Great app for all xkcd fans.
If you know what this app does, then this is the best app to do that. Easy UI and simple, clean, straightforward design.
Definitely helps simplify the process. Great for anyone who wants to geohash.
Fantastic but you need to integrate the achievements into it
Would be great if it could alert me when if the day's location is within a specified area.
Does exactly what the web generator does! I've had no problems with this app, and all of us nerds love our Android phones. (It's linux in disguise)
Would be better if it displayed the point to greater accuracy (rounds three more places than online). Nonetheless, amazing app, so glad i found it!
The app is perfect! The locations aren't picked by a person, it's an algorithm. Sometimes the locale is inaccessible-just try again tomorrow.
Great app ... please make it possible to visialise other geohash from the adjacent graticules
Its most likely me..but..I don't see what the big hairy deal is with this
Cool app if you like geocaching. but what the hell is xkcd..?
Awesome idea! Of course I should have expected it, since so many of us nerds use Android. :D
