Don’t
Wanted to make it work but wasted too much time. Randomly changed dive dates of all dives. Manually corrected only to have them changed again. No support. Not ready for prime time. Look elsewhere.
The most convoluted, frustrating app I’ve ever used
Seems there’s no really good apps to log dives, you’d be better off using a toaster to log your dives than this app. I’ve tried to log the same dive 3 times the exact same way and each time it gets the details wrong in a completely different way. It will just change the time, depth, duration, weight etc for no reason by a little bit of a lot. It’s like it’s a prank app.

Suunto ocean
Not compatible with Suunto ocean still..
UI is uhh quite outdated and clunky but there is a dark mode option

Best dive logger hands down
I use this on my MacBook and iPhone and find it preferable to the SSI and Shearwater apps.
Most versatile Dive log
I have used Subsurface for years and it has every feature I would ever need. I can’t specify what is the best feature because it has many. The top 2 are first it’s compatible with most dive computers and second it works on most pc OS and mobile devices.
Save yourself the trouble
Built to interface with a computer. If you are entering manually stay on paper and save time and hassle. Clunky and confusing UI. Too often get into screens and can’t figure out how to exit. And the video tutorial so full of ads that huge time wasted
Decent but can’t read Genesis Centauri
Good logging capabilities but does not detect Genesis Centauri or the Deep6 Excusion despite being in the list. By comparison Dive Log had no problems detecting and downloading these devices. Looks to be an example of you get what you pay for.
Amazing dive log!
Thank you for such a great FLOSS dive log. You’re the best ❤️
Still the best
Love Subsurface and have for many years. Subsurface is the cleanest easiest way to log your dives, with lots of robust features including cloud sync.
The mobile client is great but there are as always features I would like to see someday.
I would love to:
- Be able to add images to the timeline profile like desktop client. These days they are cloud synced one way or another, or even taken on phone, so readily available.
- Be able to quickly/easily capture start/end gps locks. I know there is some function there but it’s not easy imo.
- add dive site based on GPS information tagged to image (this how I started reliable grabbing location when traveling).
- easy composite image of dive info on picture or shoeing pictures on time line for social media and to be album cover.
- a way for a buddy to digitally counter sign the log. Most divers don’t care but anyone doing professionally stuff has logging requirements.

Love Subsurface but it needs an update per iOS
Will an update be coming out soon? iOS keeps wanting me to delete/keep it since it needs an update since the last iOS update.
Non starter
Looking to replace MySSI but this app can’t connect to a Mares Smart Air (with bluelink adaptor) despite being a supported dive computer
Great free dive log software
I got this software after many problems getting the software from my dive computer to sync. I use a PC to import dives (my dive computer didn't do Bluetooth)and the iPad to view. Software captures a lot of info. After some difficulties getting everything to sync, the developer quickly helped me resolve issues. So much nicer than a paper dive log!

Extremely difficult to use
This seems to be a random number generator rather than a dive log! After carefully typing in the details of each dive the app will overwrite with whatever it feels like! Takes about 5 goes for each dive to finally convince the app that I really did want the data I had entered.
Very Impressed +++
Just starting out using this program and already I’m impressed. Dirk personally resolved an issue I was having! I finally can see all my dives from manuel inputs and 2 dive computers in one app! Thank you again and I can’t wait to fully explore your APP!
Not what I expected
I’ve been using this app for a while now, just logged back in to log my weekends diving and I no longer have ANY dives logged. All my information is missing, not happy at all with this!
Needs work
Not as stable as the Windows version, it seems to have issues replicating data synced from cloud storage. Occasional crashes, and it could do with better cloud sync.
But a good companion to the full version.

Finally have decent dive software
After being frustrated with the Aqualung dive software and the MySSI software I decided to give Subsurface a try. I am very impressed. I use it on my iPhone, MacBook Pro and my Dell laptop running Windows 10. Using the cloud based storage all three stay synced with each other. Being able to import and export in multiple formats is a huge plus.
One of my favorite features is when I add a picture of the mooring site I took before the start of the dive, Subsurface will pull in the GPS coordinates out out the pictures EXIF. This makes creating dive sites in the log incredibly easy. I was able export the dive site and send them to my wife which made her logging very simple.
Read the manual. There is so much this software can do.
Things I would like to see improved upon:
Exporting to other platforms like mySSI.
Being able set a default gear setup. Tanks, suit etc.
frame sizing on the Windows platform has some issues.
Manual could use some work.
Being Open Source I’m sure many features with be added.
Thank you developers for creating this wonderful piece of software.

Good dive logs management and syncing with desktop
Couple of minor niggles in the UI but overall really good.
Let’s you download your dives directly to mobile app or to your pc/Mac/Linux desktop and sync with your phone.
Auto gps tagging of dive sites is cool too.
Oh and it’s free :)

Best overall dive log app out there...
Open source app that is compatible across multiple platforms and provides FREE cloud storage to support synchronization across all of your platforms. Plays well with just about every dive computer out there.
I was also able to import previous dives from a OEM application
Super support available via forum.

Good app
Great app, but it would be even better if it showed you some more things such as total time underwater, maximum depth I’ve ever dived and longest dive i’ve made.
