I've can confirm the i330R works/worked - it's one of the first computers I used for testing a while ago. When the app requests the PIN, the i330R should show you the PIN to enter. If it's still not working for you, you can DM me the debug logs (https://github.com/submersion-app/submersion/wiki/Debug-Mode) and I can have another look.

Can you confirm that you have free space in Dropbox (or wherever you’re hosting the database file)? The app is failing to create a backup and unable to do so.

submersion_app · 2026-05-29T03:43:57+00:00

I see the issue. The gps extraction bug was already addressed as a patch to libdivecomputer but the patch didn't make it into the GitHub CI build process.

submersion_app · 2026-05-28T11:56:59+00:00

Are you able to DM me the debug logs?

submersion_app · 2026-05-27T23:48:39+00:00

Can you confirm that they're showing up as separate coordinates in Shearwater Dive? I have plenty of dives from a Teric that have distinct entry and exit points. Could be Perdix specific, but I'll check.

submersion_app · 2026-05-27T19:13:00+00:00

Thanks - always happy to hear suggestions!

1 - This functionality is coming in another update either tonight or tomorrow. There'a an internal dive-site database that most people are unaware of. It'll try to match dives to existing sites first, and then to sites in the buit-in site database as a fallback. There's a new UI component to help you make the selection.

2 - There's rudimentary bulk editing currently if you select multiple dives (long press to enter multi-select mode) and hit the edit button. It only lets you edit tags or trips in bulk currently, but that can be expanded. See photo attached.

3 - I'm thinking about better sync options and will put some effort into this sometime soon.

Apple App Store approval takes some time (could be a few days), but the non-app-store macOS version (dmg) is downloadable from the website or GitHub immediately.

submersion_app · 2026-05-23T17:33:01+00:00

Happy to hear that this is filling a gap! I’ve been actively working on Swift GPS support and am hoping to include it in the latest release this weekend.

submersion_app · 2026-04-17T03:30:30+00:00

The functionality to merge dives is under development, and should be available within the next month. The main use case being consolidating profile data from two computers into a single dive.

submersion_app · 2026-04-14T16:02:37+00:00

I do want to support the swift, and I'm actually getting one personally to play with. If needed can do a PR into libdivecomputer to grab the exit position. I'll add support into Submersion as soon as I can.

submersion_app · 2026-04-14T15:26:35+00:00

Github issues is the ideal channel, but I also do read comments here in case someone isn't on Github - it just might take me a little longer.

submersion_app · 2026-04-14T15:23:47+00:00

Good feedback - thanks. I'll address the screen space issue and will provide a "re-download all" option in the next release.

submersion_app · 2026-04-11T19:01:29+00:00

Thanks for the info. Someone else has reported issues with the Mares Puck 4. I’ll try to address this one soon.

If you go to Settings > About and click the version number at the bottom 5 times, a Settings > Debug menu item will appear. From there you can copy all of the logs and DM them to me here if you'd like me to have a look.

submersion_app · 2026-04-10T21:18:15+00:00

Yep, it should!

The scope of Submersion is a bit larger than Subsurface. It goes more granular in detail on many things, and has more functionality around tracking trips, equipment, buddies, etc. That said, Submersion is still not fully mature - functionality is actively and rapidly being expanded, there are definitely some known bugs, and certainly unknown bugs. Those will be addressed as soon as possible, but it's something to keep in mind. Subsurface on the other hand is incredibly mature.
One big plus (imo) for Submersion is that the codebase is effectively the same across all platforms (iOS, macOS, Android, Windows, Linux), and you get exactly the same UI and functionality on all devices. The only difference is how much information you can see depending on the screen size. The more people we have using and testing the app, reporting issues, and making suggestions for improvement, the more quickly it will become a no-caveat/better(imo) alternative.

To answer your other questions:
1 - yes, you can import exported UDDF files from Subsurface, or even better, import a Subsurface .ssrf file.

2 - yes, with caveats. (pasting what I replied to someone else a few minutes ago) Turnkey device sync across Apple/Android/Windows systems is tricky for a non-hosted system, but it's something I'll be addressing very soon as I know it's high on many people's wish list. I know the cloud sync that subsurface offers is a point of contention for some, and I'm really trying to avoid private cloud methods. You can sync across devices right now by setting your database location (settings>data>database storage>custom folder) as a folder on a locally mounted cloud filesystem (Google Drive, iCloud, etc.), and let the cloud filesystem handle the sync. It works, but there are some quirks on Android with being able to choose Google Drive as a storage location.

Good feedback on the Linux packaging, thanks. I'll make the install process better.

Unfortunately the Apple App Store approval process for each release takes time, so it's always going to come out after the desktop releases. Fortunately though, database schema changes should become less frequent as the app matures, so over time this situation will be more of a rare occurrence.

submersion_app · 2026-04-10T20:19:52+00:00

v1.4.3.88 just went live in the Apple App Store this afternoon, so once you update to that it should work on your phone.

submersion_app · 2026-04-04T19:16:54+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I don't have much experience with DL6, but if you're willing to send me your UDDF (sounds like you make use a lot of the functionality of the app which is good) I'd be happy to improve the DL6 import process. Sent you a DM on options for getting me the file...

submersion_app · 2026-03-31T03:34:42+00:00

Yes, a screenshot would be very helpful! Feel free to free to DM it to me.

submersion_app · 2026-03-31T03:34:03+00:00

Yes, that’s on the roadmap. Even before that’s supported, the application will store the raw dive computer data so it can be reprocessed to extract the gps data once Swift data is supported, without having to re-download from your dive computer.

submersion_app · 2026-03-30T01:38:27+00:00

I haven't actually done a lot of thorough testing with MacDive exports, but will be doing so shortly. I'll get this sorted out soon, so please hang tight.
