I had no problems playing this one on my IPhone. If you like movies, this one takes you to iconic spots.

Without external information from geocaching.com this cartridge cannot be played.
The cartridge seems to have been a great cache, but now it is outdated. Without updates the fun playing it is greatly reduced.

This big city adventure was a lot of fun! Though it's only my 4th Wherigo log, this was the first one I had attempted and the one that made me try downloading a player. Back then it took me a while to figure out how get the app working on my Android phone. Even then after I did I had trouble finding the needed info for the very start of it.
A while later I had asked the CO to help get me started and he directed me to the an area I hadn't gone to the last time. Every stage after this was easy to find on my own and I did it without any more hints. :) Did this in about 3 or 4 trips, casually progressing a little at a time after getting off work. I had walked most of the stages except at the very end I drove to the start of my lest session with this. Had no idea how far I'd be wandering so this was a fun bit of exploring into the unknown. It also allowed me to grab a few caches in areas I'd never been to due to hectic parking situations. (But walking the areas was no problem at all!)
The very end location seemed to have the container missing, so I'll have to check with the CO if it's ok to still log on Geocaching.com. But I can log it here at least as I did get the completion code.

Very fun tour of the city. Good use of Wherigo, generous zones for downtown GPS wonkiness, and a good bit of exercise as well (even with Muni).

I couldn't find the final geocache, however.

This was a great WIG. One of the best setup cartrages I have ever played. I started it before work and finished it after. I drove to all the spots and was able to finish in just under 2 hours without getting any parking tickets.

Had a great time playing my first Wherigo! Thanks for an enjoyable tour of SF. I didn't end up using Muni and walked all of it, so got quite a bit of exercise in as well.

I was walking around the waterfront this morning when I realized that I still hadn't done this one beyond the first stage. Now's the time, I figured. It was very interesting to visit all those places in this way, and I got quite a lot of exercise doing it. I'm pretty sure that's the farthest I've ever walked through the City. I was very impressed by all the work that must have gone into creating this, and all the movie trivia was very interesting. The cache is in fine shape; hope it stays dry. Thanks for a fantastically good time.

Fantastic, Fantastic, Fantastic cache, yep i enjoyed, but also with a few, well a lot of technical probs.
Got the Bart at Daly City, after an unsuccessful FTF on Ocean Beach, wasted much battery power for my main objective of this cache !!!!

1st stage, still showing 15.9 miles ,jeez,1st answer incorrect !!!! finally got the app to respond to the answer , which was correct 1st time !! on the 4th attempt, after aimlessly walking around for at least 40 mins looking for another plaque.
I knew my android phone would struggle more with battery power , so i brought an Android tablet also, no success on that after 2 attempts of the correct answer, was trying to tip toe to the answer, finally i got the ok, jeez almost gave up on stage 1 !!!!
Really enjoyed the next few stages, app worked well and cool easy questions to answer. Then looking at my every decreasing battery life, decided on making at least 1 find today, to keep my roll going, had to be a Caccbag :), switched to C:Geo made the find, only to find when trying to get back to Wherigo, that it wasnt responding ! Had to back track and answer last question again !

Onwards to some nakedness :(, got the same response from me as always, , ' Yep looks like a p***s, only smaller !! LOL, never goes down to well, but always makes me chuckle .
Sadly last spot, keyboard on phone locked , couldnt enter answer. Had to hopefully save cartridge and rebooty, success
Then to GZ huge cache, didnt take anything, signed and replaced before anyone bothered me.
Finished with 2 flat, ANDROID batteries, phone 1st at gz, tablet, during my visit to sister and drinking all her beer and wine 1/2 mile from gz about 4 hrs from a walking start !!
A fav for me all the way and my 1st Wherigo, TFTC and time you spent putting it together.
