### 1/5 — Crashes on launch

*2018-03-31, version 3.1*

This app stopped working on my iPad like a year ago. Still equally broken.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2018-02-02, version 3.1*

App hasn’t worked in the better part of a year. I receive notifications, but the app will not open. Unbelievable that it has taken this long and still no fix. What is wrong with you developers?

### 2/5 — Crashes and will not open.

*2017-12-31, version 3.1*

This used to work, have about 16 issues of Alert Diver now trapped in my iPad that I can not open.

### 5/5 — Great developer response

*2017-09-06, version 3.0*

Had a crash issue with the app. Prompt response and resolution from the developer. Well done!

### 3/5 — Immediate crash .....

*2017-08-29, version 3.0*

Just updated as I could not download the latest issue. App said there was an xml error.  Now the app crashes immediately.

### 1/5 — Broken App

*2017-07-29, version 3.0*

The latest update does not open at all.  It crashes immediately (running the latest version of iOS, 10.3.3).  Seems like a significant miss during testing.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2017-07-22, version 3.0*

Now it crashes every time on opening

### 3/5 — When it works, it's great

*2014-03-29, version 9.2*

I always enjoy being able to read/ review Alert Diver on my iPad. But it seems like the app is not working again.  You can launch the app :(

### 1/5 — Log in fail

*2013-08-24, version 7.10.1*

About to take my Open Water Cert. Signed up with DAN for the insurance earlier this week and was looking forward to reading their magazine. Like so many others, log in fail. Since I've never read the mag, I guess I won't miss anything. Now I'm dreading anything happening as I'm afraid of what the service will be like if I have to file a claim at any point in the future.

### 1/5 — Can't sign in

*2013-05-11, version 7.10.1*

I sat here with my DAN card in hand and my account open on my PC to verify that I gave the correct data, tried upper, lower, and mixed case on my name, and couldn't get access. I give up and will stick to hard copy. Very disappointing.
