The iGCT PRO app is a toolkit that focuses on typical tasks performed during geocaching. Tasks like making a projection from a waypoint, determining a new waypoint using two other waypoints, determining the distance to these waypoints, calculating the value of a Roman numeral, and averaging waypoints are examples of what the toolkit can accomplish.

Imagine it’s lovely weather and you are walking in a beautiful surrounding. Walking with an intention, because you are geocaching and searching for caches.

Picture you are at waypoint 3 of a multi cache and you’re asked to go to waypoint 4, which is 300 meter from this waypoint and 700 meter from the previous waypoint. Now what? Go home? Imagine you have a skilful toolkit with you to find your way. Imagine you have iGCT PRO, because you want to be ready for all these kind of challenges.

Latest reviews of Geocaching Toolkit iGCT Pro app for iPhone and iPad

Ok app
This is an okay app, but doesnt touch the functionality of the Droid GCC app. The waypoint projection function could use some work, such as allowing multiple decimal points and calculating triangulation of three known points with known angles and distances. I hope to see continued support and features.
iGCT Pro much better
Tried the intro version and was less than impressed. But eventually I needed to be able to enter long/lat and get a map to the location, so after about a year of ignoring the intro (and always meaning to delete it off my phone) I took a look at the the Pro version. Its definitely worth the $. I especially like the calculations page; very cool for orienteering or plotting for searches (geocaching, etc). Its not perfect, but it works.
