### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2015-12-28, version 1.7.3*

Bad visual design. Terrible navigation. Worst of all, it doesn't even list half the locations. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2015-07-05, version 1.7.2*

This app should be free or removed from App Store

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2015-06-07, version 1.7.2*

Completely useless. Don't waste your money on this rubbish.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2015-05-28, version 1.7.2*

Absolute rubbish. Just donated $1.29.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2015-05-28, version 1.7.2*

This app horrible to read the first screen
The following screen take you no place besides to down load another app
Waste of time and money

### 1/5 — Colleen

*2015-04-25, version 1.7.1*

I can't get this to work at all! It just wants me to buy more apps.  As if!  And to think I paid for it.

### 1/5 — A waste of money

*2015-04-13, version 1.7.1*

A con, riding the tails of the proper app. The makers of this app should be ashamed of themselves

### 1/5 — Don't Buy

*2015-03-27, version 1.7.1*

This is not worth anything if you got it for free you would still delete it
It's an app to buy six other apps completely useless

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2015-02-14, version 1.7.1*

Very poor app.

### 1/5 — what garbage

*2015-02-09, version 1.7.1*

This app doesn't work everything I touch wants more money from me, I can't get anywhere it's frustrating,, I would like a full refund it's so wrong to charge for something that is not what it said it was. Will contact Apple and go further

### 1/5 — Where's the instructions

*2015-02-08, version 1.7.1*

After using the regular geocaching app this one does not function at all, where's the cache descriptions that this is meant to have. I can't get it to do anything but take me to google maps, which I can do for myself, for free......

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2015-01-18, version 1.7.1*

I want my money back on the whole package too that you took.
Does not work.....
Do not get this app.  Waste of money

### 1/5 — Ghetto

*2015-01-11, version 1.7.1*

Bad app, need to rewrite your description, maybe something like..."don't waste your money on this app"....

### 1/5 — Mr don't download

*2015-01-11, version 1.7.1*

Unless rip off for geocaches. I want my money back.

### 1/5 — Geocaching Australia

*2015-01-01, version 1.7.1*

Your app doesn't do what I bought it for. Council buildings are not geocachers so return my money. No wonder you have no reviews you made sure no one can leave one. Every nick name is taken. Mongrel. And if I managed to find one not taken I can't send the message.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2014-11-07, version 1.6*

I wish you could rate an app no stars because that's what this is worth..  Do not buy it, I wish I had read the reviews before buying it.  It gives me a total of two around me, neither are geocaches just points on the map.  Anything else I have to upgrade, total waste of money.

### 1/5 — Not happy Jan!!!

*2014-10-27, version 1.6*

I agree with the other reviews, total ripoff!!!
The app doesn't open and then wants you to upgrade. 
A no star rating. 
DO NOT BUY!!! 😡😡😡

### 1/5 — This app does not work.

*2014-10-26, version 1.6*

I wished I had read the other review first. Rip off

### 1/5 — Does not open

*2014-10-21, version 1.6*

This does not open at all,very very disappointed

### 1/5 — Boo

*2023-02-15, version 1.8.1*

I bought this to start our geocaching journey but the app never worked. It always glitches and I couldn’t open it to find locations. So sad such a waste of money

### 1/5 — Scam!

*2022-01-22, version 1.8.1*

Why is this app still in Apple store? It’s a complete scam - no functionality whatsoever - opens to a title page and that’s it! Like other reviews - shame on me for not reading them.

### 1/5 — One geocaching comes up when area have 100+ in area

*2020-01-27, version 1.8.1*

Bought it since it cost $$ thought it would come up with more geos, I have 101 geocaches in my area and on this app only 1 comes out. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — OMG

*2019-08-31, version 1.8.1*

I saw the one star review, but thought for $1.49 it was worth a gamble. 
It seems petty to be annoyed about wasting $1.49, but this app is that bad that I would like a refund. 

DO NOT PIRCHASE!

Atrocious UI and very little usable caches in the area I searched (and KNOW they are there). I couldn’t even figure out how to view a cache’s details on the app.

### 1/5 — wish I read reviews

*2018-03-10, version 1.8.1*

What a rip off. Clunky and has so few caches in the entire region. waste of money.

### 1/5 — Rubbish app - DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY

*2016-11-25, version 1.7.8*

I cannot believe that App Store has not blocked this app. It does nothing and can't be used.  It is a scam. I repeat DO NOT BUY IT!!!!
I wish I had read all reviews for previous versions before purchasing this app.  Hopefully this review will get published.

### 1/5 — Don't buy this app!!!!!.

*2016-08-28, version 1.7.7*

Previous versions all rated 1 star.  This app is not worth a cent.  Total scam

### 1/5 — Disappointed!

*2016-08-26, version 1.7.7*

Does a lot less than I thought - useless.

### 1/5 — Absolutely useless app beware

*2016-08-19, version 1.7.7*

This app does not deliver

### 1/5 — ....so you've been had.

*2016-02-21, version 1.7.6*

Edit: if you're reading this within 90days of purchase, check the invoice in your email, report a problem (app opens but does not function as expected) and ask for a refund.

This app is awful, but if you're reading this, you probably already know. Funny thing is, this dude has written a ton of apps and there ALL awful. He has a real knack for writing apps that look like they could be helpful, but aren't. I couldn't find one in his entire back-catalogue that averaged higher than 1 star. Granted, I didn't look at every single one. I don't have the time to trawl through so many tails of despair. From people trying to find ATM's in Melbourne or pubs in London or geocaches in the Adelaide hills. He's the 2015 version of the guy selling plasma TV manuals on eBay, waiting for the sucker who thinks they're getting a TV for $10. Well played, Martin Bovan. You win this round.

### 2/5 — The app doesn't work for me

*2015-01-31, version 1.7.1*

It always centres on Sydney, but I live in Adelaide; I cannot find settings to change anything... functions seem very limited. I'm disappointed that I had to pay for this one.
