• Custom filters. The program includes an advanced filtering system for selecting caches by criteria such as distance, type, difficulty, size, or last update date. Filters can be saved for future use.
• Mapping tools. Map integration for visualizing cache locations. Supports exporting coordinates to Google Earth and other digital mapping systems.
• Log management. Records cache visits, with the ability to add notes, images, and details of the search. Logs can later be uploaded to platforms such as Geocaching.com.
