Tool for planning staged decompression dives for technical divers.
Supports open circuit and closed circuit rebreathers, multi-level and repetitive dives, nitrox, trimix, altitude adjustments, metric and imperial measurements.
Keeps track of gas consumption, OTUs and CNS. Per dive configurable ascent/descent rates, last stop/stop interval settings and RMV/MOR. Any combination of OC and CCR planning is possible (CCR dives with OC levels/deco etc.).
One tap access to lost-gas, bailout, deeper & longer contingency profiles.
Constantly displays updated plan details as changes are made, and uses color highlighting to suggest best mixes.
Dive plans can be stored in a bookmark folder for convenient reuse. Plans can also be exported via email or pasted into any other app.
Features both VPM-B (based on Erik C. Bakers work) with configurable conservatism and ZHL16-B with configurable gradient factors for calculating decompression profiles. Also supports VPM-B/GFS.

Mirroring other reviews, my only real complaint is that there is no FSW/FFW unit selection. Diving in Alberta Canada is all altitude diving and all freshwater. Profiles are only shown in FSW.
App has really good conservatism built-in for PSD applications when compared to handwritten dive schedule planning. Worth the money for ease of access and especially quick dive schedule modifications.
Gave it five stars, but would’ve done 4.75 if I could for no ffw setting
