Geocaching FTF - New Cache for Android
► In your country people use GeoCahing as a meet up application and your list is full of event caches? The pro version has a filter for them.
Ask before placing low rating, I am kind, communicative and I got an email address.
► Note: the app doesn't run as a phone service so deactivate the powersave mode in case you want prevent your phone to stop the app checking. Happy Caching.
Development notes:
Geocaching.com no longer provides API support, you can read more about this here: https://www.geocaching.com/mobile/apidevelopers/
So new features implementation of the application will be suspended.
Right now you can:
► Archive new caches you are not interested in by long press the item in the list.
► Open the caches with your favorite program just by clicking on them.
► Open the menu for further functionalities.
The App was intended to be free, and I wrote _everywhere_ to be available to new requests, but some people lowered the app rating for asking new features. So you thank them for the new PRO version in which you can:
► Filter some of your favourite cache type (i.e., traditional cache, multi cache)
► Set the check frequency (with a lower minimum)
► No Ads.
The application starts in Hong Kong. You can choose your country or state through the application settings. Write me by email for further information I'll be happy to answer you.
There are only event caches, also it looks like there is a pro version. Do I need to purchase the pro version when I'm already a premium member? Makes no sense to pay twice. Can you modify it so we can search by city? Seems like a grand idea, but there are serious kinks to work out. If I have to pay twice and can't filter more than my country and state, probably won't keep the app. California is a huge state. I thought I was downloading an app that showed me FTF, not events. I already get notices of events.
Keep up the good work.
All I get are events for entire province. Not really useful, uninstalled
Looks like a promising app, I look forward to further updates.
Like the man said,good idea but it gave me the whole state of Michigan and it is a bug state. Not much use. Deleting it
Hard to get city
This app does not work properly for Eastern England. Ive had no TD alerts for the past week ive been using it. I know of over 20 csches that I have missed out on. Disappointed as it could have been so good. With no ongoing development it is likely I will be removing the app. See no point in upgrading to pro if its not still in development.
Seemed to work initially, keeps showing caches from hundreds of miles outside of my area, which isn't helpful. Also, yesterday a new cache popped up, I drove an hour and a half to it, at which point I found a log with a few dozen signatures on it. Was not incredibly impressed, although I admit, I should have done better homework before leaving the house.
I use the app almost as much as my geo app. It would be nice if I could narrow a bit closer than all in my province. Maybe a 100 km radius. But it's a great app.
In Eastern England. Just had 3 new caches pop up on my email but no amount of refreshing will get them to show on the app. Not very reliable so getting uninstalled sorry.
Awesome! The only thing I don't like is that it didn't show all caches when 100 were published at once, but things like that don't happen every day :D
Can I filter down to my nearest city, because states are rather large. Update: Thanks for the reply Art, can't ding the app for limitations beyond your control. Upgraded to 5 star.
Doesn't show caches closest to my location. goes straight to web page. More about advertising events rather than caches that are fun to find.
Would be nice to have this here in W.A
new Zealand loving the ap very clever can't wait to see how it comes along
We had an FTF within hours of getting this app. Another vote for separating event caches, and it would be nice if it could spot unfound caches published before the time of the the app download. But these are minor points - thank you for a great app!
Always like to see people providing new "functioning" Geocache tools. Thank you.
Looks like a promising app, I look forward to further updates.
As this evolves it will be a very good caching tool. Hopefully more countries will be added like the uk
Can you add Canada- Ontario? Also maybe exclude event caches in the search engine?
Looks like fun. Could Australia QLD be added?
Will check back from time to time ☺

Basic only does events. Claiming FTF for events is ridiculous. Events scheduled for the next week or two fell off the grid. Should be able to enter home coords + X amount miles. Going to uninstall the basic version.
