I am not sure if similar feature requests already exist, but my search did only find some related topics like #987 or #200:

Some user suggested the following which I think is a useful idea:
Could we add a status information to the homescreen, so that the user can see whether he is logged in and see his current count of found caches ?
It could be on the bottom of the c:geo homescreen above the coordinates and showing something like the user name, the users avatar, the current number of found caches and ideally an indication showing that the app is connected to gc.com or not.

Having this could probably avoid users blaming the app for unreliable operation just because there is no connection to gc.com or the user/password information is wrong.
Furthermore the uses can see his current find statistic and this information could also be used elsewhere in the app (refer to the mentioned issues).

What do you think about that idea ?
