What's New in Neocaching (Spark Challenges)

5.1

April 5, 2022

We’re excited to announce that Spark Challenges is now Neocaching! Neocaching is all about location-based exploration to help you collect experiences and make the most of your adventures. For now the change is merely cosmetic, the app has received a new icon and name. But in the coming weeks we’ll add more functionality to optimize the app for exploring new places and expanding your horizons. Future updates will include improvements like sorting caches by distance away, plotting caches on a map, tagging caches with attributes like ‘kid friendly’ or ‘wheelchair accessible’, and MUCH more. Stay tuned and please, let us know what you would like to see us improve. - The Neocaching Team

So frustrating

I logged out and now I can’t log back in because my email is taken and there is no sign in option other than sign up.
Yes, of course my email is taken because i registered! This is a very poorly designed app. I got it because it is synced with VRC but I’m no longer purchasing from VRC BECAUSE I HATE THIS APP

Response from developer

I'm sorry to hear you've run into issues. Could you email me directly at ryan@virtualrunningclub.com so I can (a) address your issue and (b) fix any problems with the app for everyone. Most VRC events have moved over to the VRC Reporting app which is a better experience for entering distances.

Why won’t it send me a verification code?

I have entered my phone number every possible way I can think of and it will not send me a verification code. What’s up?

Basically junk

This app is basically junk. It is so utterly basic. My biggest pet peeve: let’s say you have 100, 200 and 300 mile milestones. One particular day, you see you’ve got 99 miles done. You run 4 miles, and so you enter that in the log. Yes, the app realizes you completed the 100 mile portion for the 100 mile milestone , but it doesn’t credit those other 3 miles towards the 200 mile milestone.

No place to log in miles?

I signed up for VRC (virtual running club) Sesame Street challenge. They direct you to download this free app to log your miles. I have the free version of this app, not the paid upgrade. I can see no place to log miles, and it doesn’t recognize my email address. The only thing that it seems to know is my phone number and that I’m signed up for the Sesame Street challenge. I’m not impressed. I guess I will have to keep my own spread sheet and check which mile checkpoints I complete after I have passed them. Disappointed, once I’m done with this challenge I am going to look for a different virtual challenge vender.

Can’t add

App doesn’t appear to add mileage from individual runs in the challenges. Created my own spreadsheet and verified. Not sure what occurred with the first milestone. Second milestone that I am still heading toward doesn’t appear to add the last mileage entry towards progress. Guess I will track myself and only enter at completion.
