subsurface mobile 1.0.4 feedback

Gentlemen,

First of all, let me say that I am quite impressed with the iOS version. 
It looks good, works well and is a pleasure to play with! 
Congratulations to the developers.

The trip folding in 1.0.4 however broke the dive list for me. I have it 
on an iPhone 6 plus and scrolling is a desaster since this version. It's 
not responding well at all, jumps around and is no longer fluid in any 
way (1.0.3 was fine). As soon as I come to the bottom of the list and 
try to flick back up, it results in a white screen and as soon as I try 
to scroll up again, it jumps back down to the end plus leaving the 
bottom half of the screen white. Havent found a way to get back up to 
the top of the list (pushing the list up ultra slow is the only solution).

Dives in the list: 750

And a few feature requests (I'm sure you already have a long list, so 
feel free to ignore):

- A tap on the very top bar of the screen (where the carrier, time and 
batterystatus are displayed) should scroll the list to the very top. 
This is very common in iOS apps and works almost everywhere

- A navigation help in the list (like the letters in the phone app) on 
the right hand side. Display steps of 100s or 50s (instead of letters) 
so i can jump to specific "areas" of my list. Scrolling 750 dives does 
take a while

- Grouping feature: I'd like to group my dive list by several things 
(month / year combination, dive sites, countries, trips, etc) and have a 
count of that grouping. Similar to the trip grouping now, but 
configurable. My typical situation where I like to use the app most: I'm 
on a liveaboard and we reached a specific dive spot, where I've been 
before. I like to group the list by by dive spot, go to the site where 
we're about to get wet and flick through the past dives at this spot to 
see what i encountered there before and what to keep in mind. This has 
also prevented me a few time from signing up for a dive which was crap 
the last time i was there :-)

- Filter / search the list for dive spots / countries / locations. A 
good place would be to push down the list when at the top to reveal a 
search box

- use more of the profile graphs area for the profile if the dive was 
shallow. See screenshot, a lot of screen real estate is wasted.

Good job, looking forward to new versions!

Rainer
