I think the app has a lot of potential. It could strongly benefit from a better, simpler, layout. Also it keeps crashing on me when I want to look at the eCards.

App crashes every time trying to access e cards. I spent $45 on an e card and cannot get it. Called PADI and they said it's all fixed. However, still no e card, real card, and out $45.

Too bad, the discontinued ScubaEarth app looked much nicer. This new one is just a blown-up phone app, not really making any special efforts to make use of the extra real estate. It doesn't even support landscape mode! Was hoping for a lot more info on dive sites as well.

This app is useless. I could not even sign up using my diver nr that the app recognised. It just freezes...useless!!

Wow! It's incredible Apple allows such garbage... Don't waste your time downloading.

This is the worst app I've ever downloaded. I can't even register! When trying to click "next" after entering my info, the page does nothing. Useless. And so bummed, it would be nice to have one place on your phone to store diver card and log my dives.

The app is literally a link to scuba earth online (when logging a dive); which is a full site and glitchy at best with mobile use. I've tried 12 times to log a dive and still can't get it through because it either gets caught in a loading cycle until it times out or can't find the dive site thus allowing me to actually log the dive.

Overall, I like the app. I think it still needs some work, but it covers the basics. Most of the issues seem linked back to their website. Here's the fix (as of right now) for eCards not loading. According to tech support at PADI: if your password has special characters, you need to change it to letters and numbers only. Log out and then log in with your new password. Worked for me. Irritating (yet simple), but it worked.
