TB Scan Geocaching App |

I've just seen this on Facebook. It's an app called TBScan |
|
Geocaching App. |
|
It looks like it uses the camera in your phone to photograph the |
|
codes on TBs/geocoins and then collects them on the app and |
|
allows you to discover them all at once. |
|
It's definitely available on iOS for iPhones, and maybe Android. |
|
Looks like it could be useful :) |

So what are the "In app purchases"? |

Downloaded this app yesterday and tested it on a few of my sons |
|
new coins. |
|
Find it a pain to try and re-read writing that's been rushed |
|
down at an event but this app lists the numbers ready for a mass |
|
discovering. |
|
Had a few issues that it can take a while to read a number |
|
sometimes I had to give up even when the number was clear to see |
|
as it just wouldn't read it. |
|
Currently as its free you can only do 5 at a time to do an |
|
unlimited number its an in-app purchase to upgrade its �3.99 so |
|
I might purchase it but only after a few more test runs on our |
|
coins to check it picks them up every time |

I've dowloaded it. |
|
Don't find too many TBs, but if I do find one I usually |
|
photograph it... |
|
Just wonder if it IS worthwhile upgrading? Price is a 'little' |
|
steep. |
|
My main thought is it will be used by the 'Icon' hunters and |
|
'Numbers' crowd, as it makes things so much quicker and easier |
|
for them to get the coin/TB numbers and then log. |
