|Active low-power mode|The low power mode avoids using GPS and the gyroscope sensor in situations where a highly accurate location is not strictly necessary (e.g. on cache lists) at the cost of longer fixing times once high accuracy is needed again. It can help to enhance battery life in some situations.\\ We however recommend to keep this option switched off to have the highest possible accuracy which is desirable for Geocaching in general. :-)| | |Active low-power mode|The low power mode avoids using GPS and the gyroscope sensor in situations where a highly accurate location is not strictly necessary (e.g. on cache lists) at the cost of longer fixing times once high accuracy is needed again.

However on some devices the operating system contains bugs which can make some text appear blurred (notably bold characters).

|Create memory dump|This is a development function, which can help to debug special problems in the c:geo memory handling. Using this function is nothing helpful for you, but will only spam your internal storage with a rather huge dump file. So better not use it. :-)| | |Create memory dump|This is a development function, which can help to debug special problems in the c:geo memory handling.
