What's New in Blueye
6.5.0
October 30, 2026
- Add a marine snow filter to the camera settings for the Blueye X3 Ultra and X7, which removes drifting particles from the video (Blunux 5.2.0 or newer). Its Low Latency option removes less of the snow, but does not delay the video by a frame. - Set the manual camera gain on the Blueye X3 Ultra and X7 in ISO instead of dB, stepping through the standard values from ISO 100 to 12800. - Add degrees and decimal minutes (N 63° 26.1234') as a third position format next to decimal degrees and UTM. Points of interest, mission waypoints and the positions on the navigation pages are shown and entered in the format chosen in the app settings. - Show on the Guest Ports page when the drone cannot reach a device, a device stops responding or a port draws too much current, with advice such as the IP address a DVL or sonar needs. - Show the thickness gauge settings for the Cygnus gauge on the RS232 connector as well. - Show on the controller page which of LB and RB the triggers need for each thing they do. On the Blueye X7, holding LB and RB together makes the triggers set slow and boost, as the triggers alone do when no gripper is attached. - Fix a mission instruction edit that was cancelled being applied the next time the instruction was saved. - Fix freezing the video to measure being refused with "Release the controls to freeze the image" whenever slow or boost was set, even with the sticks released. - Fix labels at the top of the controller page being cut off on phones. - Fix the slow/boost slider not responding under the pitch and roll display on smaller iPhones connected to a Blueye X7. - Fix Blueye Cloud uploads stopping for good when the app was force-quit during an upload. The upload now carries on from where it stopped the next time you open the app. - Fix files waiting to upload to Blueye Cloud being dropped from the queue when the app was updated. - Fix a blank home screen and hidden tabs on foldable iPhones, which show the tabs down the side of the screen. Pages now also stay clear of that tab bar, folded or unfolded. - Fix the tab names at the bottom of the screen being white on white, and so unreadable, on iPhones in dark mode.
