Description:
BasicGPS is software application designed primarily for Geocaching, and runs on Phones and PDAs equipped with the Windows Mobile 5.0/6.0/6.1 Operating System. The software is offered to the global geocaching community free of charge.
As the application is free (well...donationware actually), all that we ask in return is that you provide us with feedback on the software, together with details of any issues you may come across while using the application. (Please include your PDA make/model and OS version) We fully intend to provide regular updates, bug fixes and enhancements to the application. These will be made available (free of charge) on this site. So please help us develop and extend the functionality of BasicGPS, and you'll get the benefits for free!
