Support / Logging caches with SLOW connectivity
I’m having a problem when logging caches in areas with slow connectivity. I usually log my finds together with a few default trackables on my list. Sometimes, after the screen shows that the log was submitted successfully, the app gets stuck while logging the trackables. The ‘working’ spinner disappears and it remains on the ‘Log Geocache’ page. I need to tap ‘Cancel’ to exit, and the cache I just logged still appears as unfound on Live Map (not changed to smiley). However, when I check the website, the log is already there.
If I move on to log the next cache, the ‘working’ prompt reappears before I take any action in 'Log Geocache' page, as if the app is trying to resume the previous logging process. When I review the trackable logs, sometimes they were logged successfully after it appears, and sometimes they failed.
This issue happens frequently, especially after I’ve logged several caches in a row. The only way to recover is to force-close the app and restart it, which is very frustrating.

Requests / Re: Logging multiple geocaches on previous days
My use case is a bit different. When I go geocaching on a power trail in weekend, I prefer to focus on the fun of the hunt rather than spend time logging my stories along the way. Instead, I usually write my logs after I get home and likely not on the same day. It caused me a lot of problem when sometime I forgot to adjust the find day and turn out I need to go back to web version and modify there.

Requests / Logging multiple geocaches on previous days
I am looking forward to replicate a feature that is available on official geocaching website.
Every time I log geocaches on previous day, I want the system can "lock" the day on screen I have chosen. So that the second cache I log would not require me to re-choose the day again.
In pair of the lock feature there should have a "unlock" mechanism, perhaps it can be manually controlled, timely based, or it would be unlocked on next application session.

Support / Re: Clear Map on Refresh not work?
It worked perfectly after disable the filter.
So what is the best practice of using the filter? Should I disable the filter everytime i reload?

I tried to upload with a shorter video. You can see i load those caches in urban area but when i try to load at rural area and go back to urban area, those previously loaded caches all disappeared.

The video is so large to upload. It is over 300mb. I caotured some setting screens that seems related for your reference.
While i capture the video, i found the live map loads 300 times on urban area even I only got less than 50 caches with AL in one area. However when I move to rural area, it loads only 130 times.

Support / Clear Map on Refresh not work?
I am using a live map. I load the caches in one spot, then I move the live map to other nearby location that out of the current map range and pressed the refresh button. I found all the caches previously loaded have been cleared on the map. I have "Clear Map on Refresh" option deselected. Is it supposed to behave like this?
