Great Geocaching App -- GCzII

Just thought I would share a great little Geocaching app that I have been using for a while.

Its called GCz and the most recent version is GCzII. A developer over at XDA started writing this, and it has become a really great Geocaching application.

You can search for caches nearby your position using the gps in your phone, then you can use the same software to navigate to the cache, and even LOG the cache...all from your handset.

I would post a cab in this thread, but the author updates this thing constantly, so I figured it would be better to include a link to the actual site:

http://www.nicque.com/PQz/GCz.htm

He has some screens on the site. IF you like this app, please hit the "thanks" button to show some love

Re: Great Geocaching App -- GCzII

Yeah, I have actually tried the following:

Cachemate (actually bought it)
BackCountry Navigator
The official Geocaching Navigator iPhone app (from a buddies iPhone)
BeeLineGPS
live.geocaching.com

and a few others, but for me my top favorites for paperless caching are GCzII combined with Backcountry navigator.

I havent tried basic gps, but I will give it a shot.

Re: Great Geocaching App -- GCzII

All the above also. What is nice about BasicGPS is that it does not require cell service to get into the area, just no maps without the service. it also maintains a database of geocaches, GCZ does not.

Re: Great Geocaching App -- GCzII

I agree that GCzII is the best geocaching software by far. Just don't mention it on geocaching.com, they will freak out. That place is a little to draconian for me.

Re: Great Geocaching App -- GCzII

No doubt 35mm!!! I guess they are trying to protect their coveted iPhone Geocaching app they have by shooting down anything and everything that is better than it.

I never understood why they are so down on GCz over there.
