Been using for many years. Compared 4 other log apps before settled on this one. No regrets. Nothing but great features, robust, BUG FREE (at least that I notice), always works easily between my ipad, iphone. Hands down but 4 thumbs and toes up. The Q&A forum is great. Have asked a few questions over the years and the developers are always fast and extremely detailed in their answers.
Better than paper (I think)
Pros:
• Syncs across my Apple devices
• Logs all the necessary stuff
Cons:
• Syncing requires manual push/fetch
• Not user friendly or streamlined (lots of steps required for logging)
• Kinda buggy, especially marine life logging (which I was excited about)
Based on my review of other apps, Dive Log is still the best best for the most straightforward logging across Apple devices.
Best app
I don’t usually write reviews. But I have to say, I used this app for all my gear. I can log serial numbers, maint and inspection dates, due dates, pictures, etc. I did use another app for my actual log, because it was a royal pain to import logs. Contacted the developer and asked if it could be downloaded directly from the dive computer. Apparently, I come from a long line of idiots, cause that ability was there the whole time! It’s in the store (which I had never found, until) and I paid the extremely reasonable 2.99, imported a ton of dives, and deleted the other app! This is truely an all in one app! It works with all 4 of my computers, accepts the information from a pressure transmitter, displays a ton of info. You can add pictures (maps in my case) of dive sites. Add buddies, dive shops, etc. I really can’t think of anything or info that doesn’t have a place in this app! Very simple to use and complete!
My favorite dive log app
As far as I am concerned, this is the best log book app for both recreational and advanced divers. It allows you input air, nitrox, and trimix data. It also syncs with multiple brands or dive computers, while others apps are brand specific.
I am going to warn everyone: back up your dive logs. For a couple years I made periodic saves to icloud, and at some point got complacent and stopped making backups. I eventually broke my phone and lost years of data. Don’t be like me.
I love this app. 10/10. Good customer support as well
Works Great!
I just started using Dive Log and really appreciate the simplicity and ease of use. Detail-oriented people will love all the options to enter all kinds of data. The trip option allows me to log many dives, but not need to write about each on. I can simply download dives using the first dive of a trip as the template and then all of the location and operator details, plus rank and other equipment are all done for you. Nice work Dive Log team!!
Superb app
I have been using this for a really long time. This is a great dive log app. The developer regularly updates it and adds additional dive computers to the options list. A rare gem that has continued support where so many before have blown away in the wind. This developer truly loves this app and has continued to support it for years and years.
Apple Watch Ultra?
Would be great if you add support for Apple Watch Ultra! Its always a great app and this could make it even better!
2 Thumbs Up
I have used this app for years, primarily on my iPhone but also use it on my laptop to sync up with my dive computer for depth profile, times, temp, etc. I really love this app, it is so easy to use and you can put in whatever level of detail you want and leave the others blank. I update after almost every dive in 1-2 min so I never get behind. It really comes in handy when I am returning to a dive center and need to know what I was using for weight, who you dove with or the sites you liked best, my girlfriend runs a paper log and unless it’s <20-30 dives back she never has the info with her.
Keep up the good work Greg, your a legend for keeping this app going.
Simply the Best!
I’m a bit of a technophile, and love sifting through data on my dives. I started using DiveLog in 2012. I’ve looked at other apps, and none compare. I’ve got 1500 dives logged now, use the desktop version on my Mac, and the standard app on my iPhone and iPad. Great features (custom dive site map, equipment service tracking, support for all the major dive computers), and even better support! This is the digital dive log you’ve been looking for!
