Enhanced Version

Advanced features available with a subscription

Only on Geooh GO Enhanced

Integrated TB Scanner

How often have you tried to see the tiny tracking code for a TB, but couldn't read it? How about trying to enter the many codes at an event? Now you can easily use your phone's camera to scan codes on trackables, photos, or even paper to discover them.

Geooh will show you the goal of the coin or trackable and then accumulate codes to bulk log them later. Share these batched codes with others nearby... wirelessly! Along with auto visiting TBs when logging caches it couldn't be easier to enjoy trackables.

Version 13 now supports multiple TB scanning... scan all trackables on an event table all at once!

mobile coin

Map Overlays

Who likes to find caches in counties? Geooh is the only app to display county boundaries with shading directly within the app. As you log finds Geooh will record a found for that county to shade it.*

Import a county found list from your own spreadsheet or from a GSAK exported file. When selecting a geocache on the map, Geooh displays the county it is in. If you like counties, you'll love Geooh!

Actually, you can use any KML or GeoJSON overlay on the map. Delorme challenges are available in this format for you to use. If you are technically oriented, develop your own map overlays for whatever need you have.

Overlays are also used to show a route to a geocache, or to show the most efficient route to multiple caches. See a route before navigating to the cache!

*USA, United Kingdom, and Australia only


Only on Geooh GO Enhanced

Built-in GPX Tracks

Ever bushwhack to a geocache, but then couldn't find your way back to the car? Would you like to let friends know the best route to take to the cache? Geooh has a built-in GPX track creator.

Geooh can keep track of your movements while you walk. Turn the tracker on at the start of a hike and then turn it off when done. A track is recorded in the industry standard GPX track format and saved on your device. Use it to find your way back. It will even show you the elevations of the track.

And yes, you can load the tracks in other apps or load tracks created elsewhere into Geooh!

Only on Geooh GO Enhanced

Wear OS Support

Would you like to geocache with a watch? Now you can with a Wear OS watch tethered to Geooh on your phone.*

Geooh can send a geocache to your watch. From there it shows the cache on a map, displays information about it, and then can show a compass to navigate to the cache. Imagine you are bushwhacking over rough terrain with your expensive phone in one hand. Maybe a hiking stick in the other. Are you afraid you may drop the phone? Oops! Now with Geooh GO on your watch put the phone safely away and monitor the watch compass as you near the cache... even has proximity alert pings. Once found use your phone to log it.

There is even a fun Geooh GO watch face. When connected to your phone the watch face displays a smiley. Press it and Geooh obtains your daily find stats and shows them on the watch!

*Requires a Wear OS 2.0+ watch with a magnetometer sensor


Only on Geooh GO Enhanced

Android Auto Car App

How would you like to see nearby geocaches or search for caches on your car's Android Auto console? And easily navigate to them from there? Well, Geooh GO is the only geocaching app (on Android or iOS) to provide a built-in native car app!

Watch Video

Only on Geooh GO Enhanced

Augmented Reality

Want to look through your phone camera to "see" geocaches in their environment?*

Geooh can overlay augmented reality (AR) images on top of the physical world. Just point your camera in the direction of a cache to see an AR image of it on top of its location. Google's ARCore technology available on higher-end phones is used for rendering geocache AR content. If the cache is in an area supported by Street View, the ARCore technology can use Google's Visual Positioning System (VPS) to better determine more precise locations of your phone than what GPS can provide alone. VPS uses deep neural networks to match billions of images to compute a 3D point cloud of the environment to accurately pinpoint locations.

Geocaching should be fun and Geooh's unique use of augmented reality does this. Play with it to see if you can find caches with your camera!

*Requires phones that support Google's ARCore technology

WHY USE GEOOH?

Authorized API Partner

Groundspeak's API program allows 3rd-party developers access to HQ data and services for the benefit of the geocaching community. Geooh GO is an authorized app that uses the API. If you don't see the Authorized Developer logo for an application, it is probably violating terms of service by scraping data from the website.

Frequently Updated

Geooh is regularly and aggressively updated with new capabilities. In a way it is becoming a community app as users request new features. The developer has over 11,000 geocache finds... virtually all found with Geooh... so you know the app is well tested and has a foundation based on years of experienced geocaching.

Feature Rich

There is no other geocaching app... on Android or iOS... that has the depth and range of features that Geooh has in it. Several key features like TB scanning, wherigo player, and waypoint averaging are built into the app eliminating the need to purchase or use other single-purpose apps.

Testimonials

Dane

You will not find a more complete, more useful, more indispensible tool of the trade than Geooh. It's the only tool I have that gets used every time I cache.

The developer's approach to a geocaching app is unlike any other. First he employs a list based focus that just makes sense. Next he includes a myriad of built-in components instead of having to switch to another app. Finally he communicates with his users and turns their wishes into features.

I could rattle on about features, but there's a feature list on this site already. Instead, I'll tell you that Geooh removes the frustrations other apps introduce. It replaces them with tools that make sense and a layout that makes it easy.

I used Geooh exclusively to conquer the 2018 Tri-Cities Geocoin Challenge event. I downloaded the bookmark list of the caches after they published and I was off running with my crew. Using the map we determined our route and it was just a matter of tapping the "Navigate To" feature for each cache to get us there fast. In real time I was logging caches and discovering travel bugs galore.

My favorite feature of the app comes into play when GZ is a bit of a walk from the parking coords. I'm a big "follow the compass arrow" guy and with a simple tap on the screen the compass arrow comes to life. Then when I need to see the big picture map again I simply tilt my phone up, the compass arrow melts away and there is my map. Tilt the phone to level again and the map disappears and the compass arrow is back pointing my way.

Thanks Geooh for the great app!

Let me start by saying I was a diehard c:geo user and I didn't think another geocaching app was out there that would get me to switch… until I came across Geooh. It certainly felt richer and had better looking screens which would be enough for some to stop using c:geo. But after a change in thinking how a geocaching app should operate (offline list oriented) I realized Geooh was doing it correctly. Add on the many features only found on Geooh I was sold and began telling others to use this app, especially those new to geocaching.

To let you know, I own 3 Geotours, I’ve build a half dozen GeoTrails, and have hosted a MEGA and the only GIGA in the US. I am also a top trackables producer so the many built-in TB features in Geooh like a scanner and bulk logger really rocked for me. I have considerable geocaching background and knowledge. And the app I personally choose to use is Geooh!
