... Hi Steve. Well, I was in a car wreck and that has set me back a bit. I've got the tooling on my MacBook and I'm studying like crazy to master the new Dev...
... There are methods in the API to write to local files but it is apparent that this is discouraged. They don't provide a hint as to the internal file...
You will be able to link to the built in Google maps, of course but that will require web connectivity. Not much I can do about that. I'm noodling around the...
Sorry I've been so silent. I was in a car accident and that put me behind a bit in my development. I'm making excellent progress in mastering the essentials I...
Sorry to hear about the accident, hope you are OK. The more I use the Web-based version of iGeocacher, the more excited I get about the native app. I never...
Well, in gestational terms, we just felt the "baby" give a good kick. I have sucessfully installed the very ROUGH native app on my iPhone. I hope the rest of...
Way cool Don. Upgraded to V2 this morning with no problem. I'll look forward to trying the new capabilities!! SpinningCompass (from my iPhone of course!!) ... ...
Yeah, I wish there was some good way I could get you to be one of the alpha testers as you have helped with many good ideas. Unfortunately, the development...
Hi Don. This sounds very exciting. As with everyone else on the list, I can't wait to get my hands on the application. However, I know that great things take...
I just got my first iphone(a 3g) the day of release and took it on vacation and of course caching. I had set everything up in advance so I was ready to use...
I do plan to incorporate the new GPS in the first release. At the least I will have a view that sorts the caches in ascending distance from your present...
I have a first gen iPhone and don't plan on upgrading to 3g But what I hope you might incorporate is the Google Maps functionality. It would be nice to be able...
Google maps function will be there but just be advised that Google requires connectivity so that part won't work when you are out of comm range. But you'll now...
I'm starting to get excited by the thought of having a native app. I've been making extensive use of mail option to ensure I've can still see the details if I...
OUCH! Sorry to hear that your phone took a spill. Well I've already built in the groups stuff. That went in today along with the text search. I have some...
Don, Thanks for your hard work on this. How did you implement the local GPX storage version of the web app? How are the GPX files uploaded to the phone? I...
At the moment you will just point the iGeocacher app to a URL such as: http://www.someserver.com/cachedata.xml in the settings. When you click on the dowload...
The photos look nice. I am happy to see a search field! Will we be able to search by GC# too? When caches load to my Garmin, the cache ID is on the main...
The search will "hit" the cache id, the title and the description text at the same time so if it finds the search string in any of those it will return it....
Well folks, I just hit another milestone. To test the waters and make sure I knew the process I did a reprise of my first web app "Sword Drill" and submitted...
The good news is that just in the nick of time my new 3G iPhone came it. The bad news is that this means that I've taken the time to take a crack at the GPS...
Unlike the current web app which requires connectivity, the native app I've got about 85% done stores all of the data in an on board SQLite database. So you...
If the coordinates for the cache, the "target." is known by your program, and current position is known from the GPS, does your program indicate the direction...
Yes I continuously calculate both bearing and distance to the target from your present position. Check out the screen shot I posted on the Yahoo group. The one...
Don, You might want to check out GeoNiche, which runs on a Pallm device. He has dealt with many of the issues you are trying to decide how to handle. For...
I've posted a revised screen shot of the home screen. The app is about 90 percent done. I hope to take it out for some serious field testing this weekend and...
