Ngl, from what I've seen, the whole move to cloud-based logbooks is just adding risk for no real gain.

My cousin lost two years of dive logs when his phone died during a sync. Had the paper backup sheets but never filled them in. Now he's stuck trying to remember every detail for his certs. Makes you wonder if the backup plan is the real main plan. Kinda defeats the point of going digital in the first place.

Why risk it when my paper log always works?

Seriously, I read this article last week about a cloud service outage that locked people out of their own work records for two days. That's the kind of risk that keeps me up, you know? It's not just hackers, it's your whole workflow depending on someone else's server not breaking. I get where @the_hugo is coming from with paper always working. My old flight instructor had his paper logs from the 80s, no problem, but his new digital ones from last year got corrupted somehow. Adding all these potential points of failure for a bit of convenience seems backwards sometimes.
