Garmin Dive

Compared to other software dive profile is too simple, warnings, descend rate violations etc missing.

There is no “recycle bin” or “recently deleted” or any way to manually recover a dive INTO the app that is still on the computer. This is a major ball drop by the developers to not include something so simple. There’s so much data on a dive that it will crush your soul if you accidentally delete one from the app. You’ll see it on your computer and dream of a way to have it re-synced onto the app but you’ll be out of luck regretting buying an MK2i or MK3i. Shame, Garmin. Easy feature to add and you chose for some reason not to.

I like that my dive logs are integrated into the Garmin Ecosystem. When diving I am using the MK3i, Inreach Mini 2 in the dive case, and t2 tank pod transmitter. I would in a future that a dive compatible chest heart rate and respiration be added. As I am wearing my watch outside of my wetsuit. Can a PSI chart be added to the dive log report? I n the summary I only see what my start and ending readings were.

The computer is amazing. I love the versatility for different sport. I do more than diving. But the only thing is that the app need a dive planner. Is way easier to do that on the phone rather than on the computer it self.

My Descent G1 solar will download my dive to my IPhone as soon as I am back on the boat during my surface interval. I do wish that it would upload to my SSI logbook though.

There is no way to see the entirety of your private notes on a dive without going back to editing mode. Otherwise only a summary is shown...

I love this app! It can do everything and records so much useful information.

I have no complaints about this app. Have been using it for a few years. Very easy to log a dive. Connects directly to garmin dive watch.

There are 2 features that I feel Garmin Dive is missing for it to be useful: 1. Combining dives - any surface time automatically starts a new dive. This is undesirable in lots of cases. I would love to see a feature whereby I can combine the dives. 2. Import from other software - most of my logs are in other software, so my options are to either abandon all my other logs, or use the other dive log software which can import FIT files and combine dives. You can guess which method wins.

It would be nice if this app included more information than just number of dives and total bottom time. I would love to have average rmv, average heart rate and other data displayed on my profile screen- a single graph that tracks average gas consumption over all logged dives, for example, would be beneficial in realizing improvement over the course of one’s diving career. Perhaps a report tool could be added, which could pull information from user specified data points. With more functionality, I would give Garmin Dive 5 stars.
