Attention Android Users!

Please contact me about possibly testing a Box Radar replacement.

If you have used Box Radar a significant amount and are interested in testing a new Android-based Letterboxing app and will be able to do a significant amount of testing, please contact me. The authors are looking for about 5 people to do the testing.

I can tell you that it is an AWESOME app!!

Lynn

I'd LOVE to use a new Box Radar app! My daughter's baby is due this week so I am sticking close to home, so I can't volunteer to test it-but I sure would like an update on it, and info on how to get it if it checks out!

what do you consider to be "a significant amount of testing"? what does that look like? Actually using it while on the hunt, or just checking for nearby boxes and comparing that to what shows up on an AQ search?
I'd like to help, but probably won't be out looking for too many boxes in the next couple months.

I'm in. I would be happy to test. I used Box Radar all the time. ONe of my favorite features was that it showed boxes from both websites on one combined map/list view.

I am very interested! Can you be more specific about testing requirements?

Thanks for the willingness of whoever is putting the app together. Loved Box Radar & look forward to having something back that is similar!

Clue Tracker for Android is available in Google Play.

We haven't officially released it yet. We haven't received any bug reports since we made it available two weeks ago, so we plan to release it soon.

i was a test user for the new android clue tracker and it works pretty well, really nice to catch a clue if you lost or forgot paper when you left home

i liked to leave box radar running when i was making a long journey,, clue tracker doesnt do that well in that mode but you can always pull over and find boxes nearby

i like it and it works
