Today I was out caching with my smartphone, which I used to log the caches of the prepared tour.
In the evening I used my second device (tablet) to search the live map for other cachers. Those caches logged on the smartphone are alsso stored on the tablet.
The live map correctly showed them to me as found now, although they have been saved and not refreshed since logging the finds on the other device, but:

  • The found smiley on the live map disappeared and reappeard all the time while moving the map
  • The status of the saved cache in my lists stays "Not found"

While all of this is logical knowing the current implementation, I am still wondering if and how we can do a meaningful merging of the found information?
Its a bit similar to the "deactivated" status parsed from live map (see other issue, which is already closed), but if we store this information to the saved cache, we will have a saved cache with "found" state but the own log entry and found date are not visible.

I would still be in favor to merge this information, especially to solve this "sync between devices" problem, in same way as for "Deactivated"...but what do other think?

I also have experienced some odd behaviour with found caches on the new live map. Merging the found state and preferring "found" over nothing would be the way to go.
