Today is a very special day, Apple will tonight announce the first Macs with their own processor replacing Intel processors. I also expect them to announce macOS 11 Big Sur availability somewhere this week. The good news for iCaching: I am almost ready with a new look fitting in the new Big Sur design language. […]
Since the release of macOS Catalina some users report crashes when using one of the map views in iCaching. Unfortunately these are caused by a bug in macOS. When using those views, the system should ask permission for iCaching to be able to access the location services. However, instead it crashes the application. I reported […]
You might have seen that Apple finally approved iCaching 8.0. But they gave me a warning that they could not ensure that for a next update they might still have problems with the login screen for the API. They want me to remove the ability to sign up for Geocaching.com there, which I cannot do […]
As you might have read in my previous post, I’m having big difficulties to get the latest update out in the App Store. Apple decided to go on subscription witch hunt, and iCaching is the victim. After the first (granted) appeal, I submitted iCaching again for review. However the second time it was rejected again. […]
iCaching works with an API provided by Groundspeak to enable features like downloading geocaches, pocket queries, placing logs etc. Groundspeak released a new API and will close their old API this weekend (June 1st 2019). I’ve been working on a new version for a big part of last year to support the new API so that […]
The clock is ticking towards the end of the old Groundspeak API. Before that time a new iCaching must be released that supports the new API. Recently I posted the first public beta of this version. I’m very thankful for the valuable feedback that was given to that beta version. All points that were mentioned […]
Last year Groundspeak announced their new API. It has more features then the old one, but is is completely different. This meant a lot of work to rewrite big pieces of code to make iCaching work with the new API (did I mention that it was a lot of work?). For now the features are […]
Yeah, today is macOS Mojave day! In case you are wondering: yes, iCaching runs fine on Mojave. And with the upcoming release (and I have good hopes that will be very soon), it will also shine in the gorgeous dark mode. And there is one more thing….
Yesterday iCaching 7.0 was released! And it was about time, the last update was quite a while ago. Highlights of the new version are: Refreshed look using the new round geocache icons Improved Map experience by adding clustering of geocaches when they are overlapping each other. (btw this feature can be toggled on and off […]
Op zaterdag 11 November 2017 is het OFZE2017 Mega Event. In de middag zal ik daar een (nederlandstalige) workshop over iCaching geven. Ik zie er naar uit gebruikers van mijn programma te ontmoeten, tips en trucks te vertellen en natuurlijk ook graag feedback te krijgen op het programma. Voor de workshop moet je je aanmelden […]
