Rock Bottom Planner

[Hoosier_Dive]

Just for the mathematically challenged, there is an Iphone app called "RB Planner". I can't vouch for it's accuracy. Has anybody checked this out?

Seems like an interesting app...it makes me wish I had an iPhone so I could download it! One thing I did find doing a quick search was this review: scuba gear: diving apps | Scuba Diving Magazine. Interestingly enough, the review is written by the president of the company that developed the app.

I got it just to compare it with actual rock bottom planning. A big draw back is that although it includes a deep stop and a stop at 15-20, theres no option for additional stops. Fun to play with but certainly doesn't replace training on rock bottom.

Computers will never replace any real training.

Btw I have seen the ocean below 800 ft ;-)

For a free basic dive planner, why not use Baltic Lite?

No option for Metric, so couldn't really try it. Though I did notice some spelling issues on the about page.
