Garmin Dive

This watch is the best of the Garmins I have had and used. The diving fiction is remarkable and precise. It’s perfect as you can add several transmitters and follow your dive buddy this way. The usage of the app if clear and contains a lot of information. The last update where you also can see the dive sites names is a huge plus, if they have one. I never experienced any issue with the watch while diving or with the app connecting. I really recommend this watch if you search for an dive watch the plus is also that you can use it for all the other activities also 🤙

Eenvoudige app die snel je gegevens vanuit je duik computer overneemt. Jammer dat je nergens je certificaten kan met de daarbij behorende gegevens kan opslaan. Eventueel een data uitwisseling met de PADI app zou ook mooi zijn.

Fijne app die veel gegevens vastlegt. Ik hou dan ook geen logboek meer bij. Zou nog uitgebreider kunnen misschien met diverse lijsten. Zoals welke dieren je gezien heb. Het zicht in het water is te globaal (in Nederland dan toch). Ik zou het graag per 50cm zien.

The app is constantly disconnects from Mk2. Especially, when new updates are coming. Watch is not synchronizing, so need to open app again to connect it to the app. So, weather is not working on the watch, as it’s not connected to Dive app. Apple Watch never had such issues.

When I open the app I get the message “Something went wrong” “Please try again” The app is not working for 2 weeks now.

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...
