Oceanic+ 웨어러블 스마트워치 다이브 컴퓨‪터‬ 4+

I am not writing this to bash on something that’s it not. The software does have a solid purpose as a backup dive computer at the time of this review. The Apple Watch ultra itself is solid but that’s another review. This is about the Oceanic+ app. As mentioned in many reviews…this is not a primary device IMO. Without air integration you still need an SPG from the first stage if you don’t have another AI wrist computer with transmitter. The algorithms are tried and true, the compass is dialed in, and the interface works but the main issue to many is the air integration itself. Not discussing Tec and tri-mix. This is advertised as recreational scuba level hardware and application. As such it does meet those standards. I have used the Apple Watch Ultra on numerous dives so far using the Oceanic + app and I don’t have any complaints as it being my secondary device for recreational scuba. I will be interested to see if, and when, an AI solution becomes available in the near future.
As for the sync issue, it does appear that there is work and progress being done by the developer so I will give that some merit. After all, again, it’s my secondary device for now.
Let’s go make some bubbles!

Thank you for your feedback!
For your sync issues, do not delete the app. Please make sure you are running version 1.1.6. on both devices. Restart both devices, go into your account settings on the app in your iPhone and redo the "sync to my watch" option.

I was excited to be able to try the app with the Apple Watch ultra. I used it as my backup dive computer on a trip to little cayman. The display is very readable and worked well comparing it to my main dive computer a Petrel 3. The issue I had was when I placed the app into the dive mode and did a giant stride into the water, the app apparently switched back to surface mode before I submerged and stayed locked in the surface mode ignoring the dive. It would be nice if the depth exceeded a certain amount ( 1 foot, 5 feet, 10 feet ? ) that it would switch back to the dive mode automatically. I missed logging 3-4 dives because of this issue. The Petrel 3 worked fine thankfully having all my data. My current issue is now my watch won’t sync with the app. I have deleted, reinstalled, given all permissions, etc. without any sync happening. It could be the iOS version or updates to the app, I’m not sure but it runs against Apple’s saying “ It just works” well this app just doesn’t work well.

The latest update does allow my watch and phone to “see” each other. I now get a brief message that a sync is occurring. The issue I have now is that after the sync, since I had deleted and reinstalled the app, now after the sync, my watch does not show any dives in the log where my phone app does. I would expect a sync ( unless this is only a one way sync ) to result in the log on my watch and the log on my phone app to be the same.

Thanks for your feedback! When entering the water will be prompted to start the dive before displaying dive information. If you continue to have the issue mentioned please contact our team at oceanicplus@huishoutdoors.com. We will promptly evaluate this for you. We hope you enjoy using Oceanic+!

I had high hopes that this would be able to meet my needs as a casual sport diver. It does not.

I was doing some fairly shallow reef dives, less than 25 feet. The major problem is that every time I near the surface the app would decide that I was done with my dive and display either the end of dive screen or the “Ready to Dive” screen. Sometimes pushing the Action Button would cause it to start a new dive, sometimes it would do nothing leaving me without dive info. The app really needs to prioritize giving the diver information about the dive over a dive summary screen or the liability shifting screen. If a diver is at depth they have obviously decided they are ready to dive and the info they need is bottom time, and NDL info. Denying this info to a diver at depth is negligent. Also, it is well established convention that a new dive starts after 10 minutes surface interval, not whenever the diver ascends to a certain depth. It seems the app is conflating free dive functionality with scuba functionality.

The first day of diving the app wouldn’t even display dive info, just the zeros as if I where still on the surface. I checked the Health app and it did record depths, the app just didn’t show it. That night I reinstalled the app and the next day it worked but with the disappointing behaviors described above.

Thank you for the feedback!
