Dropbox

Only when this app is first installed, does dropbox work for about an hour and then it stops working and will not sync and will quickly erase all your data unless you’re very careful. The developer needs to fix this if you want to continue to get good reviews so fix it.

Dear Diary…

Been using this app for years, then recently it stopped working. I contacted support and got crickets. So, for months nowI’ve been unable to log my workouts. I certainly wouldn’t buy this app again.

finally UPDATED

update to my review:

Night Mode is broken. iPad app is still not sized for full screen. I hope the developer plans to continue revitalizing this very useful app.
————————

I started using Athlete’s Diary about 1996, and have stuck with it, even though it hasn’t been updated for the last four years! I thought for sure its days were numbered. It never transitioned to larger phone screens (iPhone X). But it continued to log thousands of entries, reliably. During the interim, I sent emails to the developer, but didn’t receive a reply. This morning, I was shocked and delighted to see an update on my phone. The Athlete’s Diary is a warhorse of logbook software. It can seem limited, without a lot of flair—some of the icons look to be pre-retinal display—but its features are essential. I have nearly 16,000 entries logged into it, and I don’t think it’s ever crashed. I hope it continues to get updated in the years ahead. (PS, I hope The Athlete’s Diary on my Mac and iPad have been updated too!)

Simply perfect

Very nice app. Easy to configure. Keep track of everything I want. Expensive but quality is priceless...

Used it since 2009... Always up-to-date!

Will not sync with Dropbox

This app does not sync with Dropbox as advertised, despite two months of promises that it will. Otherwise it would be great.
