Some issues with mobile

1) Immediately after providing a valid PIN, Subsurface-mobile is not 
directly activated: several fields are greyed out, including the GPS 
menu and the Manage Dives menu, presumable because they require cloud 
access. One has to close the app and start it up again. Then everything 
is ok. I think this is inconsistent.

2) When accessing the user manual from the mobile app, it looks like the 
manual is loaded from the Internet, not from local storage. This would 
mean that, at remote sites with no Internet, there is no access to the 
manual. Is this correct? I can understand that this ensures access to 
the latest user manual. On the other hand, if its an old version of 
Subsurface mobile that is run on the phone, the latest version of the 
manual may actually be inappropriate???

Kind regards,
willem
