Hi there.
I know Locus already has a geocaching friends feature implemented, but I think it could be bettered.
Here's some ideas:
- Instead of having to write the names manually, would it be possible to fetch them automatically from GC? I mean... the list is always changing and sometimes we forget to edit the friends field.
- There should be a new tab in the geocache description, because as it is now, the logs are all bundled together, review notes, maintenance, DNF, founds, etc. A window just for friends logs would help to organize it and filter the type of logs we want.
I like this idea
To be precise this feature should be named "Friends' Logs" since also DNF or Notes should be listed - like its counterpart on a Geocaching.com's online Listing within the "View all Log"-Section.
Yesterday I asked 2 Geocaching friends who are using Locus for years, which features they are missing most in Locus and why they are still sometimes using Geocaching app "c:geo". Both answered the same: its the feature of listing Friends logs, and do this automatically by getting the friends-list or logs from Groundspeak-API, without the need to manually define a friends' list in Locus before.
BTW: there's also a related thread here: https://help.locusmap.eu/topic/geocaching-friends-tab
