Your Pocket Queries
Sorry. You must log in before you can access the features of this page.
Pocket Queries are custom geocache queries that can be downloaded from the website. They are in a format you can bring along with you on cache hunts on your GPS and/or smartphone. You can select a GPX or LOC text file that works with supported software applications. You can run a Pocket Query once or set it to run automatically on a daily or weekly basis. You can run up to 10 pocket queries every 24 hour period, but each individual search can run only once per day.

You can create up to 1000 queries. However, a maximum of 10 queries can be run each day. Searches with lines through them are deleted searches that ran in the last 24 hours.
How Pocket Queries Work
Due to the complexity of Pocket Queries, a dedicated machine processes them in batches throughout the day.
The order they run is based on the last time the query ran last. Priority goes to new queries first, and the others run
in the order of the oldest generated. So if you have a query run once a week it will arrive on that day much faster than
someone who runs the query every day. It is recommended that you stagger your queries. Or even better, create new queries
only when you need them.
If you don't need the files for your GPS or smartphone, you can also run your Pocket Queries on the search page. This is also
a great way to ensure that your Pocket Queries are returning the results you want.
