V-Planner 4+

Vplanner has all the features needed to plan my dives. I'm leaning towards GFs more these days, but Vplanner is so useful that I always use it was a sanity check when planning.

Been waiting a REALLY long time for a version of VPlanner specifically for the iPad. I'm not sure this is the version I had hoped for. Sliders in the configuration screen are still way too short and would I would much prefer the ability to directly enter various parameter values. It's too difficult to use the short sliders to setup the software, especially RMV/SAC for bottom and deco. Slider for OTU changes values in a non-sensical fashion. Only displays in portrait mode and there's still no way to output to printer. Would be awesome to put the larger screen of the iPad to work and replicate features and layout of the desktop version, e.g. display profile, ability to reverse deco listing, etc. Sets the standard for deco planning in my opinion...I'd just like to see more out of the iOS versions.

Great program. Easier to use than the desktop version. I would really like an ipad version though and a little more description about the settings and configurations in the program so I don't have to bring the instruction manual with me. I bet you would get more people to buy this if you put the word dive in the name somewhere. I found it by typing v-planner in to the search engine.

This application is great for planning your technical dive on the site if something changes in your dive profile or the gas you planned for doesn't analyze exactly what you wanted you can adjust your plan on the fly or do some calcs at the fill station. Sport divers don't spend the money on this. It plans deep technical dives and wouldn't be worth your money.
