Absturz

Im Gelände ist mir die Applikation reproduzierbar abgeschmiert. Ende Gelände. Der Link nach "localhost" für Webseite des Entwicklers ist ja auch lustig -------- Reproducable crash. Sadly I see no way to cant the developer since its link points to "localhost".

Hmmm...

Basically a good app, BUT: - sound files will not play - in-app-purchase cannot be found anywhere (what is it exactly by the way?) Please provide further updates soon - especially for the sound bug!

Broken on iOS 8

This app used to work in earlier versions but now Im unable to get a location fix. No information about this problem from Groundspeak of course.

Finally!

I have been waiting for something like this for so long. Ive written two cartridges so far and they both work perfectly with this application - a job well done.

Great start but needs improvement

I was SO excited to see that Wherigo had finally come to the iPhone. Me and another geocacher went out and tried a recently published cartridge for our area and we used both a Garmin Oregon and my iPhone. The app works pretty good as it picked up on all of the zones, and much like other GPS players, it takes a bit to get the hang of it but worked fairly well. The only two things I noticed was that all measurements are in Imperial only and I always use metric so it would be nice to have an option for that. Also, in many of the screens for the cartridge I was using, the images would not display. They simply came up as ? symbols. They did display on my handheld GPS so I figured it was just the player. Beyond that, great job. Cant wait to see more from this player.

Cannot download cartridges

When trying to download cartridges, I cannot login to the Wherigo site in PiGo. The login button just doesn nothing and is useless. I dont know if this is a PiGo problem or not, but without being able to get cartridges, I cant play around with it.

It is what I want, but… it doesnt work

My friend has this app on his iPhone 3G and uses it to great advantage. It seems to work well for him. I downloaded the app into my iPhone 4 and couldnt download any cartridges. It kept telling me I wasnt logged in, even though Id logged in 2 screens previously. This went on for 45 minutes, round and round the mulberry busy and no WhereIGo joy. I went to the companys web site for PiGo support and didnt see the PiGo software mentioned anywhere on the site, and certainly nothing that looked like support. I rated it based on my dream for how it should work and also that I really do want it to work… it just doesnt.

Can

Well i really liked the idea of using my iphone4 for wherigo instesd of our garmin. However it wont let me download the cartridges i need so back to garmin it is

Getting better!

The bug not allowing downloading of cartridges is now fixed!! There are a couple minor bugs still getting worked out but I feel that the developers are going to keep working on this one and keep improving it as we go. Thanks for the great start!!

Great app but...

Since precision is bad on iPhones, Pigo should show coordinates too. This way, I could search with my small GPS for more precision. Some people, like me, do geocaching with an iPhone helped by a small GPS for more accuracy. Then it would be a 5stars!!!

LOVE the idea but...

I love the idea of doing wherigos on my phone because I dont have a compatible device but so far it seems that only about half of the cartridges I download actually work.

Bug

Seams not supporting iOS 9.

Cant connect

No matter what I try I cant connect to my geocaching ID, which makes the app useless.

Cant download or import cartidges

I can search and find the cartridge I want, I just cant do anything with it. I tried importing from iCloud, but the app doesnt recognize the one I uploaded. I tried downloading directly from the website within the app, but it sits at 0% and never moves. Pretty much worthless.

Trash

You cant download anything with this new update. With the old update, the app was pretty smooth. Now, its worthless.

Finally! Wherigo for the iPhone!

Been waiting a long time for this, and now its here. We had our first Wherigo experience using this app in San Antonio today, and it worked perfectly. The only thing I didnt see was the ability to upload your saved completed game file to the Wherigo website (probably something to do with not being an official Groundspeak product). Also, going for the final cache, we didnt get to see exact coordinates, so we had a big zone to search in (we didnt find it). I dont know if thats a limitation of the app or the cart or if I just didnt see the coords. Still, Im stoked to finally play Wherigo on my iPhone. I just wish there were more caches out there! Maybe Ill build one now!

Finally!

Nothing pleases me more than to know I can finally go after some of these little buggers in my area! (Team Peredox is missed in WA btw!)

Woohoo! I get to do Whereigo caches!

I was bummed that I couldnt do Whereigo caches since I only cache with my iPhone. The developer is within my community and a friend of mine who is personal friends with the developer notified me immediately when it was released. Earlier today I had an opportunity to put it to the test and for not having done a Whereigo before, I thought it worked really well. The only bug seemed to be with the save feature and actually reloading your save, but Im not sure if that was just with our particular cartridge or the app. Regardless, SharknoseBunnies will contact the developer to discuss it. All in all, I think this was a good app and easy to use. (Perhaps a few more instructions on how to download the cartridge, but it didnt take me long to figure it out.) Time for me to learn how to create a Whereigo!

oh cool

Just tried this for the first time today. My very first Wherigo experience. How cool!!! Ive been wanting to check out these cartridges for a while, but as I only cache with my iPhone (for now) I had no way of checking them out. Kudos for bringing this aspect of caching to us smartphone users. Much appreciated. The tutorial play anywhere cartridge worked like a charm, but the other one I tried crashed, but still.... I got to do one today and I was thrilled. :D

Excellent Start

Im excited that this app might very well save Wherigo. (Now if we can just come up with the perfect builder.) ;) I recently played a few carts and had a lot of fun with the story lines. Really cool and different experience from traditional caching. I can see some amazing things possible with the Wherigo platform. Although this app dosent accomodate everything right now, I believe that it has tons of potential. Im glad to see Pi-Soft going after this one with some vigor. If I were you, Id grab this one quick. I cant see it staying in the "FREE" column long... Keep up the great work Pi-Soft!
