FAQ

Q: So, does that mean I have to be an astronaut to use Ethercache?

A: Ha ha, good one. Really, it's simple and down-to-earth. We think you'll get the hang of it and start having fun in no time.

Q: Just what is this thing good for?

A: Ethercache is fun! You can use it for a scavenger hunt, to supplement a geocaching trip, or just to have fun with your friends and neighbors.

Q: Who uses this thing???

A: People all around the world. User-generated content has been left on every continent of the earth.

Q: How does it work?

A: When you 'embed' an ethercache in the æther, it is actually linked to your current geolocation and stored on a server. Later on, when someone searches in that location, they find the ethercache! So, in order for Ethercache to work properly, your Android device must be Location- and Internet-enabled.

Q: Will Ethercache steal all my personal data?

A: Absolutely not. We use and store only your device id and location. And none of the messages you enter are permanently stored on the phone (this may change in the future). Of course, we can't take any responsibility for what you leave behind in the æther!
