Description

Know the ground you're working.

Patchly is the all-in-one gold prospecting and metal detecting app for exploring and understanding the goldfields. It puts the layers that matter on one map and records where you have been and which detector you used. Finds get meaning too, classified by type, size and condition.

PRIVACY
Patchly asks for no account, runs no server that stores or processes your field history, and does not track you. Your sessions, finds, photos and Stash live in a plain database on your phone that you can export whenever you want. Optional backups and exports go only to storage you choose. Map and content downloads still use network services.

MAPS AND RESEARCH
• 90+ curated layers and growing: geology, geochemistry, tenements, land access, terrain, historic activity and more, chosen for prospecting rather than collected for show
• Tenements refresh nightly, so leases, applications and expiries are current before you drive out
• Bare-earth LiDAR relief for New South Wales, Queensland and the Tasmanian goldfields, with more expanding over time
• Stacks: build your own layer setups, reorder them, and switch between saved maps in a tap
• Layer controls: every layer has its own settings, filters and thresholds
• 3D terrain: tilt, rotate and exaggerate the ground to read its shape
• Offline search for places and watercourses, with no reception
• Light and dark, for the hour and the light you are in

FIELD RECORDING AND NAVIGATION
• Smart classification: Patchly works out which parts of a session were travelling, detecting or stopped, automatically
• Logbook+ then draws detecting as raw lines or as Coverage, the honeycomb showing how hard each patch has been worked
• Record a session and see where you detected, and which detector was active for that section
• Off-road go-to: navigate to any find, pin or map point by bearing, distance and ETA
• Multi-stop routes: build an ordered route across several points and work through it in order
• Classify finds by type (nugget, specimen, other), size (small, medium, large) and condition (waterworn, mixed, rough), each with its own map symbol
• Pins that mean something: a colour dot, or an icon for camps, vehicles, water and hazards
• Draw and save lines and areas for boundaries and plans on the map

RECORDS AND GOLD
• Logbook: filter and sort every session, inspect it, and return to the exact ground
• Stash: track nuggets, specimens, bars and coins in a simple or purity-aware mode, with every holding valued against the live gold price
• Overview and Calendar: totals, value, categories, daily hauls and your season's statistics
• Add photos to finds and pins, and link a find to its Stash item

OFFLINE, BACKUP AND PORTABILITY
• Offline regions: pick an area, download its satellite and layers, and the whole map keeps working out of range
• Automatic backup of records, photos, Stash, detectors and Stacks into your own cloud storage
• Guided import wizards for Trilobite CSV and Detector Maps KML exports, step by step
• Share .patchly files for Stacks, sessions, finds, pins and shapes

PATCHLY PRO
Free covers the map, recording and records you need for a real trip. Patchly Pro adds the deeper curated Library including LiDAR relief, Logbook+ classified travelling and detecting sections, and the Coverage honeycomb drawn over the ground you have already searched. Free tracks up to one troy ounce in Stash and one active detector. Pro removes both.

• Patchly Pro annual: A$23.99 per year
• Patchly Pro monthly: A$13.49 per month

BRILLIANT APP!! It's rosewood easy to use and tracks perfectly 👌 There isn't any blur like other maps and the 3d is awesome!!

★★★★★ Ian Houston · Sep 11, 2026

Fantastic experience so far, long term high use user of the competition, this app has really streamlined and brought forward a lag free, highly detailed system that I am really enjoying using. Navigation is an absolute breeze, the app is incredibly responsive with large data sets, and all the layers and info you need are easily accessible and able to be filtered as needed. I look forward to seeing how it goes in the long term, well done!
