Nearly useless
First, I have to manually enter the data from my proplus3. Because there is no interface between my iPad and PDC. (Not necessarily diverlog problem) however, diverlog continuously changes the data! I fix the data and the log the indicates "modified pdc" as the input.
Don’t
90% of the way towards a good product is still not a good product. The developers haven’t thought out the products and workflow. It’s a confusing mess of “synchronizing” data between dive computer, mobile device, desktop and cloud. But some data does not, in fact, get synced. Although your dive data comes across, things like buddies, personal data, etc. do not.
Device setup/initialization is confusing and painful because it’s not a real sync that’s happening, but more like a confusing push between four endpoints, some of which are available, some not. Back to the drawing board on this one until it’s ready for prime time!
From tech support: “Unfortunately, your personal info, certification, and buddies won’t be synced due to the privacy policy. You need to add them separately.” Really?
I’ll be trying the other dive logs now after dropping too much on DiverLog’s app and PC desktop programs.

I like it!
I was initially reluctant to purchase based on previous reviews, but went for it anyway since the application on my Mac works so well. Syncing my dive log with DiverCloud and my Mac worked seamlessly. Having the data on my phone will be helpful.
Photos still not fixed
They claim the latest update fixed taking photos of certs, but it didn't. You can center a card perfectly but the picture crops up and left of what you actually take.
The gear bags are frustrating, because if you need to change just one little piece for a particular dive, you have to create a whole new bag/name. Otherwise it changes all your past dives. The gear bags should be a template only, then the dive itself should contain any changes you make. Those changes shouldn't change the "template" for every dive in your past.
Other than that, I've enjoyed using the app.

Shuts down
I have a major problem that is not getting resolved. The app shuts down when you try to download via bluetooth your dives. Ive try to reach out to pelagic and have just went round and round. I feel I’ve wasted $12 and more so expected what was advertised for a $1500 computer.
