### 1/5 — Wrong math

*2021-03-15*

The answers are not correct on most math questions. Most are wrong with just the first table where you bring the depth and time together making the pressure group.

### 2/5 — Mr

*2014-03-05*

Crashes alot

### 2/5 — not very good

*2013-07-05*

lots of the questions are wrong

### 4/5 — good idea

*2012-11-16*

it would be better, thanks

### 4/5 — Wrong!

*2012-08-30*

Many of the questions are confusing and/or have multiple correct answers.

### 3/5 — Useful, but...

*2012-05-17, version 1.0.5*

This is a really useful app but it suffers one major flaw in addition to the one regarding the wrong answer provided in the tables quiz which has already been highlighted in another review, the flaw I I like to see fixed is the habit this app has of crashing when requesting to review my answers after completing a quiz. I would like to buy the full version of this app but won't until the highlighted flaws are fixed! Please developers release an update that fixes the flaws that earn this app a less than five star review. 😳🇬🇧👎👍👌✋✊👉👈

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2011-07-07*

That's the best game ever I love it

### 2/5 — There is a wrong answare

*2011-04-13*

I'm a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor often using the PADI RDP in metric system. Solving the RDP quiz in meters, I found a relevant dangerous mystique.

The question is: "Your first dive is at 16 meters for 50 minutes. After a 20 minutes surface interval you dive to 16 meters again, how long can you safely stay at that depth?".

16 meters for 50 minutes = Q
Q after 20 minutes = M
M at 16 meters = NDL of 33 minutes

The correct answer should be 33 minutes or less, but the app is considering 35 minutes as the best alternative, what may put the diver in risk.

Please, take a look at the surface interval. 20 minutes makes a Q into a M, not a L as the app is saying.

### 4/5 — Quite basic

*2011-02-02*

The idea is good, but the questions should change each time you take the exam.  An advanced OWD test would also be cool.

### 3/5 — Good app but a question wrong!

*2011-02-02, version 1.0.1*

Good app though one of the dive table questions is wrong. When u look at the answer it quotes different times than the question.
