And one more response to my own email...

Subsurface-mobile 1.0.1 (4.5.2.1058) is available in downloads/daily and on its way to both alpha and beta testers.


	Just installed the 1.0.1 version.
	I was going to report that on the last install 1.0.0 that it showed accessing cloud storage, then it showed the credentials screen for a short while (even though it was an update and my credentials were in and unchanged) and then it went to showing the dive list.
	I was also going to report that while on the GPS fixes screen swiping left and right sometimes would leave a small portion on the left hand side of the other/previous screen view
	After some more quick testing both of these issues seem to be fixed in 1.0.1.
	
	I did find that if I scrolled right to the very bottom of the dive list that I end up with a white blank screen or the first dive or first couple of dives missing with white space below the first shown dive.
	Not the end of the world just slightly strange.

   	 I also read the online manual because I was curious about how the GPS fixes are sorted. I think it could be useful to have the manual as part of the program opening up in a browser window?
	When testing I created a new GPS fix then found it hard to locate that dummy GPS fix to be able to delete it.
	
	It has come a long way and is very usable, great work all!



While I wish that some of this had been found earlier, I'm very happy that these things were found before a public release. Yes, the red texts are a user visible change and in theory one screen shot in the manual should be changed. But I really am not worried about this. All of the changes are making Subsurface-mobile 1.0.1 a much stronger release so I'm very grateful that this feedback came in just in time.

Please, please, please: MORE TESTING. Yes, I'd love to release tomorrow. But I'd even more like to fix any other unpleasant surprises before hundreds of users play with it and run into bugs that we could have fixed before the release.

Thanks everyone for all your hard work so far. We are really, really close!
