App is infuriatingly hopeless

I was so excited to have a digital Doyle guide…Until I tried to use it. Every time you open the app and you have to go through all the available guides to find the one you purchased. Then it does not work like the book. A simple online PDF format would be better. If it just had a contents / chapter page that then linked you to each chapter. Or an interactive Index. I tried using the search function and after hours of trying various keywords, could find nothing on very obvious topics (eg Cousteau Marine Reserve in Guadeloupe). The only thing that is relatively simple to find is anchoring / approach info. Gave up and went to the chandlery to try and get a hard copy…which it seems they no longer stock. Subscription cancelled and back to google it is. Perhaps the developers could have a peek at how the Digital Lonely Planet Guides work.

Great content - Horrible app

The content is great. Just like the old hard copy. The app however is just horrible. Using this on an iPad is maddening. Every few minutes the app freezes then closes. I’ve never seen an app perform this poorly. Hire a professional app developer, PLEASE.
