5 ★ Best Geocaching app for Android. Not much else to say, I've tried others but I just keep coming back to GCDroid. Simple yet allows me to do everything I want.
5 ★ On its way to becoming one of the best geocaching apps. Less of a hassle than c:geo, and way more friendly than the official app.
5 ★ Been using this app for a few years and it works great.
5 ★ Best geocaching app out there.
1 ★ NO MANUAL, MUST BUY LICENSE FOR EVERY DEVICE, I MEAN - _NO WAY TO TRANSFER_ PURCHASED LICENSE, THAT SUCKS !!!
5 ★ Easily the best and most dynamic Geocaching app around, and still evolving and quickly adapting to new features in the official API.
5 ★ I LOVE the fact that is shows you how close you can place another geocash with just the normal map!
4 ★ Love it; but messaging no longer works for me. Also I used to see thd actual coordinates I was at plus the cache coordinates when on the compass...seems to be gone now.
4 ★ I like: clear satellite maps, displays wapoints, reasonably accurate, cache description pages include my personal notes. I don't like: if the mobile doesn't have data, caches & maps must be opened at home to read maps in the field. Ways to improve: make the maps truly offline as some other apps do, include an owners manual. Because of the lack of reliable offline maps, app may have limited value on a trip unless one has wi-fi, but could be valuable around home. Will I pay for it? I'm not sure.
4 ★ some finds I made take time to appear as found, unless I refresh that cache specifically. Edit: I worked that issue out. Actually my problem had nothing to do with the GCDroid app per se. I learnt that using a VPN is not a good idea when you use GCDroid. However, the method to log finds needs a lot of 'getting used to'. The whole menu structure as far as logging, field notes and setting up templates needs some redesign.
3 ★ This app is functional and does what is promised but feels like a clone of the official app with a five dollar pricetag slapped on top. The map lacks polish and isn't smooth when zooming in and out also you can't view other user profiles without leaving the app and, as far as I can tell, it is impossible to view other peoples logs on your owned trackables via the app. The app could greatly benefit from working with other caching sites like opencaching. Overall it is a good app that needs polish
5 ★ I have been caching for years and having tried many apps over the years recently came across GCDroid after testing trial version for a while I am more than impressed and decided to buy it. Great for offline caching, especially with offline map feature where all your caching can be done from the map screen. If your into geocaching with an Android this app is a must!
1 ★ Revised Jan24/20. Paid subscription, changed rating. Not worth paying for. Not user friendly, upload on logs and finds unstable, does not upload /update Geocaching automatically. TOO clunky. Stay with other apps. Also, like others, does not need the permissions access it wants.
5 ★ Great product and super support! The off line databases make it possible to make your own collections of caches, for instance after selecting with GSAK. I have a seperate database with Waymarks. The import of files from Dropbox works like a dream. (I do have the pro version.)
5 ★ Pretty good! Dev responded quickly to an issue I had, greatly appreciated. Many nice features (I bought the Pro), but one feature that is missing that I use alot is the ability to add/remove a cache to my watchlist. Solid app.
