Version 1.4 crashes while trying to launch
Version 1.4 crashes while trying to launch on a 3GS with IOS 5.0.1after the recent update. Previous versions were fine
Must have!!!
This is the only reference you will need! It covers everything!!!
So far, so good (but needs some tweaks)
This is a really good App. There are a few things that I think are critical that are lacking. It needs a SEARCH function, the checklists need to be more comprehensive and even possibly "tailored" to the environment one is traveling in (do I really need anti-malaria tablets for a trip into the desert?) and, I think, most importantly the QUIZ function needs to be expanded. I have found that there are only a dozen or so questions in each section which can all be mastered within a few minutes. The QUIZ function would be great, if expanded, because the average person doesn't find themselves in an actual survival situation very often. So, by continual "quizing", this information can be kept up to date and present in your mind. In the end, there is no replacement for actual experience, but in many survival situations you only get ONE chance and if you fail then you haven't survived (and that's the point).
