my opinion on the app as a Divemaster....it gives a baseline but nothing will beat going to a pro to help you get your weighting sorted out....as it is a personal fit type deal...as it tells me that I should be using between 12.5 and 14.3 kg of wheight....but I personaly dive with 10kg....so just be mindfull that you dont use to much as it may create complications....
Best app I have used to figure out buoyancy for new and seasoned divers.
Works well but I didn't find any information about customizing a BCD. My new BCD is a modular (Mares XR) and there is no information about it or any similar BCD to choose from. Would be happy to learn how to find this information or having this BCD to choose from.
This app is awesome... This is way to koooool. If you dive you should have this app installed... Awesome App developers... App update asap for fat Boyz like me... Thank you....
Does not include diver's body fat ratio, rendering this app pretty useless. A 200lb guy with 30% body fat ratio has a very difference buoyancy characteristics from a guy with the same weight but only 15% body fat ratio.
Overweights me by about 2 pounds, not bad, safer than the opposite, 40 years experience might be the reason. Free field the weight, 182cm and 123kg is not rare, but out of range for the app, many athletic guys who gained weight later are like me, muscle+fat.
Very nice app with a great interface. Useful for novice to understand buoyancy factors and improve diving. One recommendation: Allow different units (metric/imperial) for different factors. For example, Celsius for temperature and Pounds for weight.
I couldn't identify a way of adding gear that isn't already covered, making this pretty limited. With no way of adding the most common UK cylinders (standard Faber steel 232bar 12 & 15 L), I could only use this while diving in the US.
It would be great if the gear list would be more comprehensive. Needs things like dry suits. Otherwise good.
Crashes every time you try to change the settings.
Too small, can't read it!
Pretty good app to get initial weight right. It needs back plate and wing combinations in the BCD section, not just manufactured jacket types.
