A great starting point for newbie cachers. This app guides you through the adventure of finding your first few geocaches with tips, hints and instructions for geocaching as well as using the app. The app recommends geocaches for beginners but allows you to navigate to any geocache in your area complete with cache hints and descriptions.

The official Geocaching app is the step up from the intro app, allowing you to geocache offline, download hundereds of caches with pocket queries and provides hours of entertainment. Riveled by apps such as Geocaching with Geosphere, Looking 4 Cache Pro and iGeoKnife, the official one has most appealing interface and scores highly on the easy to use factor. Definitely worth the price, as it leads to hours worth of caching fun.

This is a must-have for the multi cache fans out there! Easily download any multi cache from geocaching or open caching, and your off! In my opinion the best, and rather cool feature of this app, is the fact that you can enter the coordinates in its letter form (eg. N 53.22 A(B*3)(C/D) E 004 43.DFE) and as you go around, you simply fill out what A,B,C,D etc equals. Once you've got them all, the app automatically enters the information, leading you straight to the co-ordinates!
