What's New
Fix bcache cancel and, compass jitter problems.
The application has access to the following:
Your location
fine (GPS) location
Access fine location sources such as the Global Positioning System on the phone, where available. Malicious applications can use this to determine where you are, and may consume additional battery power.
coarse (network-based) location
Access coarse location sources such as the cellular network database to determine an approximate phone location, where available. Malicious applications can use this to determine approximately where you are.
System tools
prevent phone from sleeping
Allows an application to prevent the phone from going to sleep.
Network communication
full Internet access
Allows an application to create network sockets.
Storage
modify/delete SD card contents
Allows an application to write to the SD card.

Way too confusing This app provides no clear cut method of searching for and locating caches. More like a middle man than anything else. It just forces you to use your web browser so what's the point really? If that's not the case then the interface is simply as unintuitive as possible.

Great app Tried a couple others and this one worked the best for me. Transferred loc files from PC and worked great. Only flaw was I had to do a little editing to get the files to transfer from my SD card to the app.

Great App I have been looking for an app for my Samsung S720C (straight talk version of the Illusion) that would let me use my .LOC file downloads instead of .GPX or manual entry for GeoCaching and this one works Fantastic. Less than 10 minutes after downloading a list of 100 and saving it on the phone we had found our first 2 caches with this app and are taking the app on an all day power caching run. Like others i have GPS status & toolbox installed so i have the "radar" option and it is spot on. 5 Stars for this one!!

Useless Not totaly useless, but since it won't automatically provide data due to TOS I will download an app that does. Uninstalled!

Love it!!! I came to this app from Blackstar on a Blackberry, so I was used to having to create and upload pocket queries. As someone who attends events at which new caches are released before they are published, I love the fact that you can quickly and easily put the co-ordinates in as a waypoint and save it with the cache name. I downloaded GCDroid which I couldn't get it to work at all, and Columbus and find each good in different ways. I prefer the simplicity of GeoBeagle and the clear compass, but I like Columbus' ability to list nearby caches for more spontaneous caching forays, although you do seem to end up with a rather long, unwieldy list to negotiate! The advantage of pocket queries is that you determine how many caches on the list which makes it easier to navigate, and you can save each route separately on the SD card. If you are confident using pocket queries and want to be able to log your own co-ordinates, then this app definitely wins out.

Somewhat useful It can work with GPX files from Opencaching.US and Terra caching, but...I don't like the split screen on cache list. Can't sort cache list. Older versions seemed to work better.
