Fun super good

This app has kept me in shape and helped me through some rough times and I absolutely love it. I do it with my grandma and my mom and my dad and my cousin and my brother I just love it so much and I have devoted so much time to it thank you.

bad

möst cash ï triiyd to find was not thair and þe hints SUCK.

Vandalism everywhere

Rubbish app terrible care towards the caches not rewarding because you walk to somewhere and if the purpose of your walk was to find one and it’s been vandalized which is the case most of the time then it’s disappointing and a huge waste of time

Waste of time

This app made everything so time consuming and not very fun. They managed to have people hide cache at their own time no compensation whatsoever and expect people to keep doing what they want. I hide the cache just one little thing missing “log book required “ after I submitted many time for different demand from them . Waste of time the cache are nothing but a play toy for children. This is for idiots
