The biggest difference between this app and geoCache is ease of use. If you have used my U.S.Weather app, then you can see where this is going.

With the older app, you have to do manual entry of the cache coordinates every time you want to work towards a geocache. GeoCachePro allows you to create a list of geocaches that you can quickly choose from and changing to track a new cache is just a few taps away.

Another big addition to GeoCachePro is the ability to read GPX and LOC files created on geocaching.com. Everyone who uses geocaching.com can select caches and export them to a LOC file. Geocaching.com premium members can create GPX files with data on up to 500 cache locations – then copy that to the phone’s memory card for use by GeoCachePro.

GeoCachePro can handle several different GPX and LOC files limited only by available space on the memory card. Once you pick a GPX or LOC file, you can choose multiple caches to add to your list.

The other big difference is an addition to the large tracking compass graphic – GeoCachePro now monitors your movement as reported by the GPS hardware and adds a new pointer to the large compass showing your movement direction as well as the direction to the cache.

I welcome suggestions for improvement.
