Grayscaled maps depending on zoom level
I have started to use the gray-scale option for maps more and more. I am not a super-fan of the "new" cache icons, especially the part where they become dots when zooming out. I understand why though, and definitely accepts it.
But depending on the map type used, they can become very hard to see if the map has similar colors. Therefore I often switch on the gray scale option when I zoom out to get an overview. This has lead me to an idea.
I would like an option to automatically turn on gray scaling of the maps when the zoom level is such that the cache icons are dots, and then automatically turn on the colors again when zooming in far enough to get "real" cache icons again.
Trackable aus Cache entnehmen, Entwürfe bearbeiten, einzelne Entwürfe löschen
Ich vermisse die Funktion, Trackables aus einem Cache zu entnehmen, finde nur crabben.
Entwürfe bearbeiten und einzeln löschen wäre super. Ansonsten liebe ich dieses Programm. 1 Tag testen hat gereicht ❤️
Koordinatenumrechnung
Ich nutze momentan primär c:geo und dort gibt es eine Funktion, mit der man per Klick auf die Koordinaten, zwischen den verschiedenen Koordinatenformaten wechseln kann. Da ich einen VW fahre, dessen Navi die Koordinaten nur im DMS Format schluckt, wäre diese Funktion für mich sehr praktisch und wichtig.
Eigener log hervorheben
Bei gefundenen Geocaches, den eigene Log entweder als erstes im Logbuch anzeigen oder in den 'logs von Freunden' Tab mit hinzufügen :)
Save and restore settings
Save all settings, templates and databases in the cloud (onedrive, gdrive, Dropbox) and syncronise it with other device eg tablet.
updated by support@gcdroid: only handle settings
if you aleady have dropbox/etc you can easily copy DB there before phone upgrade. If I had some big DBs I'd do that. Only keeping GC codes would not be what I want. I want the data. I played with databases of 50k caches or more.
But I don't think GCDroid should backup large data like that.
Settings (templates are part of that) should be saved though.
Updating title to reflect my intentions...
Vorlage 'needs Maintenance' erstellen können
So würde ich owner öfter weil bequem auf defekte Dosen oder feuchte Logbücher hinweisen können.
Sharing geocaches
The Garmin devices have (or at least had, not using mine anymore) an option to share Geocaches wireless between them.
I suggest implementing something similar. It could be done in two ways, either local or online. I don't really know what's built into Android for this, but I figure that one should be able to create some form of data packets and then use the NFC technology to transfer it locally by letting the phones touch each other.
For online it would require some (free) service to send smaller packets in some way. I have not researched if this exists. Or if encoded messages could be sent via chat services like Messenger/Telegram/Whatsapp and similar. I honestly don't know.
I actually expect this to be more work than use, it's not something I miss often myself, but still, a useful idea.
Better interation of Wherigo caches
Good idea from the developer, according to the Facebook group. Please vote for it
