  • Field Notes
    1. Added new tokens for templates, snippets and signatures.
      [FINDCOUNT]
      [FINDCOUNTTH]
      [TIME]
      [TIME24]
      [DAYTH]
      [DAYNUM]
      [DAYSHORT]
      [DAYLONG]
      [MONTHNUM]
      [MONTHSHORT]
      [MONTHLONG]
      [YEAR]
      [PLACEDBY]
      The [FINDCOUNT] token takes the find count value from the current profile data then adds any “Found It” or “Attended” field notes that haven’t been published yet (including the current field note), the profile data is updated every time you publish a found/attended log or every 24 hours, if you want to be certain you have the latest find count you should open the “Profile” screen and tap refresh before you go caching.
      The tokens ending in “TH” have the suffix “st”,”nd”,”rd” or “th” (te/ter in German).
      Found it on [DAYLONG] the [DAYTH] of [MONTHLONG] at [TIME]. Thanks [PLACEDBY], for placing the [FINDCOUNTTH] cache I’ve found so far!
      expands to:
      Found it on Monday the 3rd of December at 3:15pm. Thanks CacheNut99, for placing the 254th cache I’ve found so far!
    2. When editing a field note the cursor is now positioned at the end of any existing text.
  • Miscellaneous
    1. Fixed issue where it was not possible to open cache details from the Nearest Cache List in some circumstances.
    2. Now warns when attempting to open an unsupported “guid=” URL (these are the URLs used on the geocaching.com website, they will be supported in the next API version).
