5 years later still a mess

Every update to the integrated rule book requires you to delete the app, reinstall, restore purchases and then re-download all the assets you had before. I reported this problem five years ago, and have reported it many times since, and it is still there. The RYA developers are simply too lazy to fix it.

Developer Response ,

We welcome and consider all feedback but it would be useful if you could get in touch with us directly at wsappsupport@rya.org.uk to explain your concerns over selecting text in a little more detail. You'll be glad to know that while font size adjustment is already in the app for the standard eBooks, we will take a look at updating the more complicate and interactive Integrated eBook in due course.

You're right that the content is available as free pdf downloads but as we tried to get across in the description the key difference is the way the Integrated eBook links all the documents together (literally thousands of pages). The bit you pay for is essentially for the convenience factor; a clever way to find all the relevant cases for a particular rule or all rules and case relating to a specific text search. You can even display a specific rules mode (i.e team racing).

If you're having any issues using the app then please get in touch with our support email wsappsupport@rya.org.uk and we'll be glad to help you make the most of it.

Just a bad PDF viewer

Just a bad PDF viewer unless you spend £10, which it then seems to give you rule definitions when you click on some words. Pointless app - just download the PDF from the website and use iBooks. iBooks works much better
