Garmin Dive™

There is no way to see the entirety of your private notes on a dive without going back to editing mode. Otherwise only a summary is shown...

I love this app! It can do everything and records so much useful information.

I have no complaints about this app. Have been using it for a few years. Very easy to log a dive. Connects directly to garmin dive watch.

There are 2 features that I feel Garmin Dive is missing for it to be useful: 1. Combining dives - any surface time automatically starts a new dive. This is undesirable in lots of cases. I would love to see a feature whereby I can combine the dives. 2. Import from other software - most of my logs are in other software, so my options are to either abandon all my other logs, or use the other dive log software which can import FIT files and combine dives. You can guess which method wins.

It would be nice if this app included more information than just number of dives and total bottom time. I would love to have average rmv, average heart rate and other data displayed on my profile screen- a single graph that tracks average gas consumption over all logged dives, for example, would be beneficial in realizing improvement over the course of one’s diving career. Perhaps a report tool could be added, which could pull information from user specified data points. With more functionality, I would give Garmin Dive 5 stars.

Just took the MK2i diving to Bonaire. It's taking me while to learn how to use this, but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. The garmin dive app makes it easy to log dives- which automatically get posted- then can be edited using the app. I'm starting to use other aspects of this computer, I really like the exercise related parts of this. There is a lot to this watch/ computer!! It was a hefty purchase- glad I did it

Great watch and great app.. love the air integration compared to an iWatch - was a great purchase decision and the companion dive app is well coded and organized. Thanks Garmin!!

The app is ok. But there’s no way to export or import dives. All my dives are logged in the SSI app, so I have to manually copy them over. Pretty dumb. A QR code or export feature would be great.

The app is great! You can log so much information! It’s amazing you can add photos, your gear, and tons of other information. I just found you can filter dives by tags, temperature, depth. That’s so cool! Can you add a “DPV” tag please?

The whole Garmin Descent experience is awesome until the last mile : the watch is beautiful, the watch usage and customization is great, the dive experience is tremendous, the data collected (GPS entry and exit points 😍), where it goes south is when I try to get the Descent data where I want. Unfortunately this is the part where the app comes in and it has multiple problems, the main one being that if your are diving in a sink hole in the middle of the jungle, or out at sea for multiple days in a row away from any internet connectivity, the app is useless. What further exacerbates this issue, is the devices inability to pair up with any other app such as Subsurface, DiveLogDT, or MacDive to name a few. Some of you may say “well you can import FIT files to those apps”, sure you can, but you must have an internet connection to open up the Dive app, sync your watch with it, then send that data to Garmin’s cloud, then you have to visit the website (can’t download these via the app), then you have to go through each dive entry and download the compressed FIT file (no bulk downloads that I know of), and then you have to unzip each file and then, just then, you can import it to the the dive log app of your choosing. This is really a very poor experience, and I’m surprised that Garmin put so much attention to detail to every other aspect of this watch ecosystem, but completely dropped the ball on this. My main request for Garmin would be this: Garmin, please make it easy for developers to download data directly from the Descent rather than having your users jump through loops and hoops to get the data where they want. Garmin Dive should be an option, not the only one.
