Corinthian48 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Hello I have discovered that there are several caches near our home and would like to download that geocache app. The app is supposed to be free but I keep getting asked for my credit card details when I log in to iTunes. Why is this? Also there appear to be some in app purchases for monthly subscriptions, are these taken automatically? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 You mention iTunes, but I think you need to use the App Store. There are two Official Groundspeak geocaching apps. The one you seek has a diagonal orange banner across the face with INTRO written within the banner. If you have selected the proper one, it should not be asking for credit card info. There is a Premium Member purchase available thru the Intro-app. You do not need to purchase it. Premium Membership is a subscription with recurring fees. You may, if you desire, purchase Premium Membership at any time. This link may assist you: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/geocaching-intro/id329541503 Quote Link to comment
+derektiffany Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 The app is supposed to be free but I keep getting asked for my credit card details when I log in to iTunes. Why is this? You can create an Apple App Store account without associating it with a payment method. See the following link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204034 Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 If you are successful downloading the Trial app, and find you like caching, paying $10 for the Paid app will be a cheaper way to see more caches. (The Trial app limits how many, and which caches it shows) Quote Link to comment
Corinthian48 Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Sorry, I meant the app store. I have an iTunes and apple account. Quote Link to comment
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 In the app store, if you search using "geocaching free", the Official GS Intro-app would be one of those presented for selection. Good luck and Enjoy! Quote Link to comment
