3.0 out of 5 stars Great content, buggy app May 16, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
I've been looking at the book version of this for several years but just never took the plunge to buy it. So for half price on my phone I decided to finally give it a try. There's a lot of info packed into this app, the design is well done. Nice clean easy to navigate interface.

But there is 2 issues that are becoming quite annoying. First if you exit the app any way other than hitting back multiple times and confirming you want to exit via the pop up, next time you go to use it, it will crash, every time. Get a call, crash.. Hit home to check a text crash. I tend to multi task, and like just hitting the home button, do something else real quick and be able to come back to where I was without having to completely shut down the app every time.

Second issue is with the bookmarks, quite often they bring you to the beginning of the section instead of where they should. Backing out to the menu and selecting the bookmark again usually works.

Overall I'm happy with the purchase. The quality of the content justified the price for me, hopefully the few issues can get fixed in an update. If so this would be a 5 star app.

this is a great app for camping or backpacking. advice for everything you would need if lost or camping, all the advice you would find on man vs. wild. kind of ridiculous on the kindle fire or other tablets though, not very likely you would go camping with a tablet, better to download on your smartphone. still a great app with a ton of useful information, i love that it doesnt need wifi to operate

Works with no problem in my Kindle Fire.

Comprehensive and highly recommended- easy to use. This app form of "SAS Survival" is as good as the two (there's a small abridged version) paper bound volumes of the same name which are excellent resources, in my opinion the best. In fact, buy those also- leave the larger volume in the bathroom and the small one in your truck, backpack, travel kit, etc.
