Just wondering, since everyone here has a GPS, how many out there are into Geocaching?

been geocaching for a few years. now that I've had an android, my first smartphone, for less than a week, I'm exciting about a lot of these enhanced reality features. Wonder if I'll even use my handheld GPS much anymore. I downloaded a geocaching app. we'll see how it workes compared to the GPSr. a least I won't have to PQ as much. just be somewhere and find nearby caches on my phone. hope it is that easy.

Strongly suggest you purchase the official Geocaching app. You'll get access to live data, including recent log entries (within seconds) and you can log right there from the cache.

I'm using the iPhone app (official one) and truth be told my Garmin Colorado is getting a lot more dust on it these days.

I haven't been too active lately but was running around trying to find everything in the area when I first got a handheld GPS.
