Keep your gear in safe condition, always. "When did I last overhaul this regulator?" Your life-support gear deserves better — let DiveKeep handle your care timing. ■ Dual tracking: dives x time Overhaul "in N dives," BCD service and battery changes "in N days." Log a dive and it updates your total dives, so count-based care is spot on. ■ Never forget the post-dive rinse Gear used in the sea needs a freshwater rinse. Mark gear as "used in saltwater" and get reminded to rinse after every dive — protecting it from salt jams and corrosion. ■ Track your tank inspections Get reminders for safety-related checks like visual inspection (VIP, yearly) and hydro testing (every 5 years). ■ Preset care items Post-dive rinse, regulator overhaul, O-ring check, BCD service, computer battery change, hose check, tank visual inspection, tank hydro test, wetsuit care, fin & mask care, full rinse — in real diver language, with recommended intervals you can fully customize. ■ A collection with a care log Register regulators and BCDs with photos. Every care builds your history, and you can record costs too. ■ Three-stage reminders A heads-up as it approaches, on the day, and gently every day after until it's done. Faulty gear leads to accidents. Never miss it. ■ Tips for divers Fit the dust cap before rinsing, O-rings are consumables, follow regulations for tank inspections — 24 tips and a buddy turtle make care more fun. ■ Widget support See which gear needs care next and what's left (in dives or days) at a glance on your Home Screen. [Free] • Register 1 piece of gear • Up to 3 care items • Care reminders [Premium] • Unlimited gear • Unlimited care items • Full history & dive log • Group by storage • No ads One-time $20 or $1.49/week (no free trial). Subscriptions auto-renew and are billed to your Apple ID unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Cancel anytime in Settings. Care intervals are general guides. Adjust them to your gear and diving style, and always follow the guidance of certified service centers and dive agencies for inspection and service. ■ LINKS • Support: https://tsuzukit.com/contact/ • Terms of Service: https://tsuzukit.com/legal/terms-of-service.html • Privacy Policy: https://tsuzukit.com/legal/privacy-policy.html
