But it seems like the app is not working again. You can launch the app :( ### 3/5 — Promising concept but Horribly buggy *2012-11-27, version 7.9* Review edit: After deleting all copies of the app and re-installing, I was able to get the app to work and download my Alert Diver magazines. The app still crashes a few times a week, but having access to the magazines anytime is pretty nice. Would STRONGLY PREFER the option to receive my magazine in a PDF format, that I can view anywhere, anytime, on any device. Yes, I would lose the embedded videos and photo galleries (which usually crash), but the PDF could link to those. Upgraded rating to 3 stars. Still a lot of crashes. I have faith in you DAN! :) ### 2/5 — Crashes immediately after opening *2012-10-31, version 7.8* Great content...if I could access it. Crashes on iOS 6 on 3rd gen iPad. ### 1/5 — Login Fails *2012-09-01, version 7.5* This app used to work on my iPad and now login fails, it works on my iPhone but I have no intention of reading the magizine from the iPhone. They need to get it fixed. ### 1/5 — Login Fails since upgrade to 7.5 *2012-08-24, version 7.5* I love this magazine! I used to love the app. However, since the 7.5 release I cannot access my editions because the server won't recognize my credintials. Please fix this issue so I (and we, the dive community that enjoy reading this magazine) can once again do so on our iPad / iPhones. ### 1/5 — Alert diver *2012-08-23, version 7.5* Has not worked since newsstand started with os update ### 2/5 — Login continues *2012-08-18, version 7.5* To fail miserably. Used to get my issues seamlessly but sine the last update, it gets DCI and there seems to be no decompression chamber available. Guess it'll just die . ### 1/5 — What happened? *2012-08-04, version 7.5* Was working but now doesn't accept login credentials. Even had yurdu send email to make sure logging in properly. Fix please. Love reading on my different devices ### 1/5 — Lousy *2012-07-21, version 7.3* This is without a doubt the worst app ever. Will not download content. Do not waste your money! Great organization. Crappy app. ### 1/5 — Worthless since I cannot login to my account *2012-06-19, version 7.3* This would be a worthwhile application if it would successfully accept my login credentials. I'm logged into my account on the website via Safari, but the application will not accept my credentials. So, if this gets fixed then I'll consider revising my review. Let me know how it goes DAN. ### 1/5 — I have to use the paper version. *2012-03-10, version 6.1.1* I love the magazine, and it's my new diving goal to be able to download an entire issue without experiencing a crash. For now, I need to keep reading the paper version. ### 1/5 — Downloads *2012-02-25, version 6.1.1* Can't download the magazine unless the app is running. If it goes to sleep or you change to another app, your download is cancelled. Go with paper. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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? ### 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. ### 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. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2012-12-08, version 7.10* 12/7 just updated. Tried to launch and it just crashes. Guys roll it back a lot, at least the older version I was able to read this Version wont even open one page ### 1/5 — iPad crashes/iPhone works *2012-11-18, version 7.9* 1 star because I've followed all troubleshooting steps, restarted, deleted & restarted app numerous times. Works on iPhone but always crashes on iPad, now stuck in "preparing to Download" "Please Wait" loop for newest issue (I deleted all other issues that were just stuck). iPad is what I want to read this on why can't an app that works be developed? Again I followed ALL troubleshooting steps several times. What a waste of time! ### 1/5 — Still crashes. *2012-11-13, version 7.9* Still crashing on ipad2 and ipad3. Fix this already!!! ### 1/5 — Still no proper credentialing *2012-09-07, version 7.5.1* Copied and pasted what the forgot password email contained and it still won't allow me to properly download subscriptions. Still useless. And they took the time to fix a display issue? Wow...DAN needs to find a new developer. Their brand is the one getting pulled through the mud. ### 1/5 — Broken *2012-09-05, version 7.5.1* Not sure why it stopped accepting login credentials, but as others have done, verified credentials with service provider to no avail. Update and I may update review. Update 5-Sep-12 - it'd have been nice if instead of "removing reflections" with the update if they'd have fixed the login issue. One would have thought the consistent complaints would've gotten their attention... DAN is so much better than this in other phases of their business. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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! ### 5/5 — Great dive publication! *2012-11-13, version 7.9* Note that sign-on for DAN members in My Editions is your e-mail on file with DAN as your user name. Password is your last name, case sensitive, with first letter only in caps Easy to navigate. Additional content as compared to print version. Easier to carry along on dive trips. I love it! Problems with log-in now fixed. Issue was number of devices used to be only 3 and easy to exceed. Now allowable number much higher! ### 5/5 — Fixed now !!!!!!!!! *2012-10-22, version 7.8* Last update fixed login problems works great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Works fine for me. *2012-03-19, version 6.1.1* Works fine for me. Looks great on the iPad and the video and other multimedia enhancements are great. Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Great Update *2012-02-07, version 6.1* Great update, love the news stand access but I am having the same issue as others who are reporting lack of ability to log in to Dan account to get my issues. Looking forward to resolution to this issue. ### 5/5 — Membr issue problem *2012-02-07, version 6.1* The Newsstand version says I should be able to get to my member copy but I cannot find any way to do it. There is no way to sign in to my account in the upper right, or anywhere, that I can find. ### 5/5 — Fabulous!! *2011-11-21, version 5.0* Alert Diver is incredible! The scope of content, depth of information and richness of imagery really establish an entirely new benchmark for the diving industry. What an incredible resource for anyone interested in diving and the marine environment. ### 4/5 — Great, but... *2012-10-21, version 7.8* Great magazine but latest update crashes immediately on 3rd gen iPad with iOS 6. ### 4/5 — Fantastic publication... *2012-02-07, version 6.1* ... But I can't access this with my DAN member number. What gives? ### 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. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
