Subsurface iOS beta testing - now much easier

I tried this version with an iPad Air 2 wifi running side by side with an android hudl.

Loading - opens up to a white screen with subsurface mobile shown in the centre ( no logo unlike the android version )and moves on to the cloud credentials page. Entering a wrong password is correctly identified, re-entering gives me the accessing cloud message.

Once on the dive list, the font colour appears to be a little darker and is easier to read than android.

Selecting a dive shows the profile and details, this time the same font colour. Everything looks similar apart from the warning flags on the profile. In the iOS version, they are little more than red dots, the android version they are recognisable as flags.

Rotating the screen to landscape works properly, no issues with redrawing.
 Making edits to old dives works ok and changes are replicated across the cloud ok.

Adding a dive works well, although adding a dive out of time sequence also means that the dive numbers are out of sequence.

If you tick the use current gps box on an iPad without gps it gets a little confused, but didn't crash.

Deleting worked properly.

Overall it worked extremely well straight out of the box with no major issues 

Slight annoyances are that the left and right bottom slides can be a little difficult to catch properly. The right slide will often bring up the iPad right hand slide - displaying the calendar.
