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.

After having downloaded my certification I disabled the network permission for the app. It does not show my certification anymore. It says "You're currently offline, but you can still view important information." No. My certification is important and I cannot view it. Unacceptable. The "share" feature produces an image file showing a large blue blob with the PADI logo, my name and PADI number. Useless. Digital certificates that can be verified offline exist! Use them!

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!
