DIY??

Not at all clear how to create a new treasure hunt. App refers you to their website for information. It’s then difficult to find the correct link for instructions and in the end the page is “empty “
Deleted the app never to try again

Scavenger hunt

Fun!

Great fun

Just ran a treasure hunt for my dragon boat team. It was easy to set it all up. Everybody worked how to use the app and had a great time.

Accuracy not good…

I was trying to do the puffin parade with kids but the app makes it extremely frustrating. Lots of times it would not recognize that I’m there and wouldn’t let me register it - even though I’m literally standing on the exact point on the map - and looking at the puffin. Many times I had to walk around for a long time until it would actually get it - which is impossible to expect people with little children to do. Other times it would recognize I’m there before I found the puffin and I would loose sight of the map.
In my opinion the app should be corrected in a way - when you are near the object, click on it, and only then it should allow to register it if you are in approximately 200m range.
I’m literally giving up as it’s impossible. I went to some places just for this and couldn’t register anything…

How do you create your own scavenger hunt

What do you click on to create your own scavenger hunt. I only see about app that has no info and join another map. Clicking on the map icons does not create your own either.
