SCUBAPRO LogTRAK 2.0 4+

Needs a lot of work

After my initial (great) frustration that SmartTrack was abandoned in favor of LogTRAk, and it wasn’t even possible to import all my many hundreds of dives, I tried to give LogTRAK another chance. LogTRAK tries adapting to a changed world where divers have multiple devices, different interfaces, etc. But LogTRAK, at this point, really does not seem past an early beta status. So many things need attention, refinement, debugging, addition. It just feels ScubaPro just isn’t willing to invest the money to make LogTRAk a polished, bug-free, modern app with all the functionality divers want and need. That is very disappointing. In a sport where dive computers are life support equipment, we need recording and analysis software that is fully up to the task. At this point, LogTRAK is not.

Poor Upgrade from Previous iPad version

Just upgraded from older version and uploaded 80 dives from my G2. The upgrade and the upload went well with no complaint. But this is a poor upgrade from the early version to this new 2.0 version. Here are the three major issues.

1. This was an iPad app but now I am stuck with an iPhone size app on an iPad. For someone who wishes to use just an iPhone this may be acceptable but with a larger iPad it is a waste of visual real estate to not have it set for an iPad. You would think that SCUBAPRO could build both an iPhone and an iPad size app.

2. There is no way to globally update multiple dives. For example, I just came back from 8 dives in Cozumel, where I dived an 80 cu-ft steel tank. I can change a individual dive to a different size tank but I can’t change all 8 at once. That should be an easy thing to do. It would make entering location information more practical.

3. You can look at a lot of information for one dive but you can’t look at information from multiple dives. An example would be wanting to see how your air consumption changed over the course of multiple dives.

I give the app 3 stars because it does the basic stuff but it doesn’t earn additional stars.

Every bit as bad as the previous LogTrAK

Don’t waste your time with this. It’s no improvement over the previous LogTRAK, which also had horrible reviews, and both versions are a total discredit to a company that claims to sell the best in dive equipment.
Since you can’t import your logbook from previous LogTRAK, you’ll need to connect to your dive computer and import. Good luck with that. Took me five attempts to get the Bluetooth connection to my HUD, and the first import stalled at 15%. No way to reinitiate the import without disconnecting and reconnecting Bluetooth. So I did that, multiple connection attempts again to get it connected, and the next import stalled at 79%. The one after that stalled at 85%, then 100%, and 100%. Nothing actually got imported into the logbook. After 90 minutes trying to do an import that should have taken a minute, I’m done with this version.

Developer Response ,

Hi, I am very sorry to hear about your issues with the HUD. I tested it just now and it worked for me.
We are also working on an update for the previous Logtrak version which includes an export feature to export all your dives.
If you don't want to wait for the update please contact us under Profile>⚙️>Provide Feedback and I will help you transferring all your dives to the new app.
Best dive,
