Dive Log vs Dive Plan

Dive Log is designed to work either as your primary SCUBA diving logbook application or in conjunction with compatible 3rd party desktop logbook applications. You can use Dive Log at the dive site or on the dive boat to capture the information about the site while it is fresh in your mind (or your dive guide's mind). You can even capture the GPS coordinates of the dive site using the built in location services of your iOS device. Details about your actual dive can be added immediately after your dive or at the après dive event and later be saved to your desktop computer. The dive buddy feature is fully integrated with Contacts on your iPhone or iPad, letting you capture information about your newest dive buddy or quickly add an existing buddy to a particular dive. The dive data and statistics features let you have an immediate answer the next time your dive guide asks how much weight you used on your last dive or have all the information you need about your dive history when you fill out that next dive waiver. Metric and Imperial values are supported for all appropriate logbook fields. You can easily enter values using the appropriate units for the situation and view them in your preferred measurement system. You can even explore detailed dive profiles from popular dive computers that you download with your desktop software and later upload to Dive Log on iPhone/iPad. Dive profile data can also be transferred directly from certain dive computers directly via Bluetooth or using a supported Bluetooth accessory and an associated in-app purchase. On Windows, Diving Log 6.0 (www.divinglog.de) is fully integrated with Dive Log on iPhone/iPad and has built in synchronization. Diving Log 6.0 has extensive support for importing data from dive computers and other dive log applications. On Mac OS X, logbook information can be imported to Dive Log on iPhone/iPad from a number of compatible applications using the free Dive Log Manager application available from More Mobile Software (www.moremobilesoftware.com/divelog-sync). DiveLogDT (available on the Mac App Store) can be used to directly import a number of dive computers and file formats and can synchronize with Dive Log on iOS. Dive data can be directly downloaded on a Bluetooth LE (Bluetooth 4.0/5.0) compatible iPhone, iPad or iPod touch from Bluetooth LE capable dive computers such as the Suunto EON Steel, Suunto EON Core, Suunto D5, Scubapro Galileo 2 (G2), Aladin Sport (Matrix), Aladin H (Matrix), G2 HUD, Aladin A1, Shearwater Teric, Peregrine, Petrel 2, Petrel 3, Perdix, Perdix AI, Perdix 2, NERD 2, Oceanic VTX, Pro Plus 4, Geo 4.0, VEO 4.0, Aeris A300CS, Aqualung i300C, i330R, i550C, i750TC, i770R, Apeks DSX, Sherwood Wisdom 4, Mares Genius and certain heinrichs weikamp OSTC computers as well as the DiveNav Inc. bluebuddy and Tech Buddy dive logger accessories. Supported Bluetooth LE accessories are available separately. Mares Bluelink Pro is a Bluetooth LE accessory by Mares and available for purchase separately (www.mares.com). The Bluelink Pro allows you transfer dive data from certain Mares dive computers (Puck Pro, Smart, Smart Air, Quad and Quad Air) directly to Dive Log on your Bluetooth LE compatible iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Dive Computer Buddy (aka DCbuddy) is a Bluetooth LE accessory by DiveNav Inc. (note that the DCbuddy itself is no longer available). The DCbuddy allows you transfer dive data from certain dive computers (including models from Suunto, Oceanic, Aqualung, Aeris, Sherwood, Tusa and Mares) directly to Dive Log on your Bluetooth LE compatible iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

Dive Plan is a dive planning and logbook app for recreational scuba divers. Plan single and repetitive no-decompression dives, work out Nitrox mixes, keep a complete logbook, and check the weather and water temperature at your dive site — all from your iPhone or iPad. PLAN YOUR DIVES • Plan first dives and repetitive dive chains using standard recreational no-decompression tables — pressure groups, no-decompression limits, and surface intervals • Repetitive dives carry each dive's pressure group into the next, with the surface interval pre-filled from real elapsed time • Clear safety-stop guidance (required or recommended) for every dive • The planner won't produce a dive that exceeds no-decompression limits — it tells you instead • Metric or imperial, switchable anytime NITROX / ENRICHED AIR • Set your oxygen fraction (FO2) and partial pressure limit (PPO2) • See maximum operating depth (MOD) and equivalent air depth (EAD) for each dive DIVE LOGBOOK • Record depth, bottom time, date and time, location, tank pressures, air/surface/bottom temperature, gas mix, and notes • Automatic, continuous dive numbering • Review your history on the dashboard: total dives, total bottom time, deepest and longest dives, plus today's dives and your last ten AT-A-GLANCE DASHBOARD • No-Fly countdown based on the DAN Flying After Diving guidelines — 12 hours after a single dive, 18 hours after multiple dives or consecutive days • Readiness: whether your next dive plans as a fresh first dive or a repetitive one, with a live surface-interval timer since your last logged dive • Current weather and sea-surface temperature for your location WEATHER & WATER CONDITIONS • Local forecast — current conditions, highs and lows, wind, and precipitation, powered by Apple Weather • Map view with search and dropped pins to check conditions anywhere • Sea-surface temperature from NOAA satellite data CERTIFICATIONS & CHECKLISTS • Keep your certification cards, with front and back photos, on your device • Build pre-dive and gear checklists and run them before every dive PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your dives, logs, and photos stay on your device and in your own iCloud • No third-party analytics, no advertising, no tracking DESIGNED FOR IPHONE & IPAD • Universal app, all orientations • Light, dark, and system appearance, with optional background themes DIVE PLAN BASIC & PRO Dive Plan is free to use: one dive plan per day, a 20-entry logbook, one certification card, one checklist, and full weather access — free, forever. Upgrade to Pro for: • Unlimited dive planning • Repetitive dive planning with surface intervals • Nitrox / Enriched Air planning • Unlimited logbook entries, certification cards, and checklists • Premium background themes Pro is available as a monthly or annual subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Payment is charged to your Apple Account on confirmation. IMPORTANT Dive Plan is a planning aid, not a substitute for proper training, a certified instructor, or a dive computer. Always dive within the limits of your training and certification, verify every plan against your own dive tables and dive computer, and never rely on a single tool. Calculated results are estimates. You are responsible for your own safety in the water. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
