The box radar app doesn't work with newer phones. It was nice because it organized the boxes neatly and made it easy to log then as found.

Everyone else answered the app question pretty well, but I'll also point out that there is information in the help pages about app support.

Maybe the app could format the clue to make it easier to read on a fancy phone?

The clues on AQ already are formatted a bit differently to make it easier to read on fancy phones. I know a lot of AQ is not smartphone friendly--I've been updating subsystems for years now and fixing that as I go along, but the options to search for boxes and read clues have already been through that process. And with the "here" button on the search pages, it's actually pretty easy to run a search for nearby boxes in a readable manner on a smartphone. As long as you have cell phone coverage....

I think my phone is pretty new and box radar still works for me. (Samsung s7 I think)
