Allow off-line find/dnf recording #63

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

This is not a but but a feature request:

Please allow me to mark a cache as found or not found and update either the 
name or add 
a tick box/radio button with the status of the cache. The method of logging the 
find 
currently sends an SMS to a short code which doesn't work in the UK.

This change would allow us to mark our finds easily.

This is a highly interesting feature.
Add a new database table with user state for caches.

I recently purchased a garmin oregon for caching and love it.  Use it along 
side 
Geobeagle.  The option on the Orgeon allows you to log your finds, then upload 
a 
simple text file to your fieldnotes.  If you would like I could supply you with 
my 
recent text file if this would make it easier for you to implement.  

The Oregon simply mounts as a drive on your computer (as the G1 can), and you 
browse 
the drive for the file to upload.

I am not sure if there is a legal issue in creating a file that looks like the 
garmin 
file or not, but figured I would add my thoughts to this thread.  The current 
SMS 
feature works well in Geobeagle when you have a cell reception.  I really like 
the 
Oregon route though.

I don't think it will be a problem.

I'm thinking we add the following to preferences:

Logging:
 - Log via SMS (phone number configurable), or
 - Log via field notes file at /sdcard/gb_field_notes.txt

I'm going to do field note logging to a file first, and then log a separate bug 
for 
configurable sms phone number.

Setting Stephen as owner.

I think we have a confusion of what the feature is.
1) Store logging notes offline to upload later
2) Remember and display if the user has found each geocache

I agree with Comment 9, and feel that they are both beneficial, but I am 
personally 
more interested in point 2)
