The learning content itself is good, the app is just atrocious. As many others have noted, there is no actual data native to the app so every. Single. Module. Loads. Individually. Very. Slowly. I've spent about 5 hours trying to get thru content for the open water padi certification, at least half of which is just waiting for pages to load. How they expect people to be able to do the theory in tandem with the practical is beyond me. Your software team should be fired.

Useless to me. Makes more sense to use the PC than browse info on this app that is not optimised. I was looking forward to it as I wanted to replace all my certs and make them available on one app instead having 10 cards lying around. But I'd also have to pay full price of a physical card for each card to be digital. Greedy much? Shame on you

I am very sorry to hear that you believe that the eCard is too much. Please note that for some regions the eCard is the default for new certifications however it is also the replacement option for certifications done prior. If you have any questions please feel free to reach us at webmaster@padi.com. Looking forward to working with you!

Except for having your training approved by the PADI instructors - which can be done manually anyway - this app has no use to me. If there was a way to import data from dive computer apps like Garmin Dive at least, it would be way less cumbersome than having to switch between apps on a mobile every time you need to copy the dive over the PADI app. I am aware I am 2 or 3 dives away from giving up and get back to the paper log.
