How can Locus Map help me with finding geocaches?


Locus Map and geocaching

Geocaching is a worldwide favorite outdoor game, and Locus Map is an officially certified Geocaching app.

Locus Map can show you geocaches on the map, navigate you to the cache, display listing, images, logs, it also allows you to log your own findings offline or online directly from the app without the need to visit Geocaching.com website. And much more >>

How to get geocaches into the app?

Directly from the app

Available with Premium Silver only

  • go to Menu > All features > Geocaching > Geocaching tools > Search for geocaches
  • tap SEARCH
  • confirm Import of the caches

This way the app imports 20 geocaches placed around the maps screen cursor. You can change the location, and number of caches, or set up a filter. More info >>
