Logbooks between Perdix AI and Mac/iPad/iPhone using Bluetooth ?

[Roger Hobden]

I have a very specific question:

What are the best electronic dive logbooks that can synchronize between a Shearwater Perdix AI and a MacbookPro, an iPad and an iPhone using Bluetooth, and that work right out of the box, without needing to acquire any other apps, software, or anything else ?

What has been your experience with these various electronic logbooks ?

Strengths, weaknesses, wish list about things that could be improved ?

take a look at dive log from More Mobile Software - Home of your digital scuba logbook I use the IOS version on my iphone/ipad and it syncs nicely with my Perdix AI

MacDIve is terrific. The developer is great, he is very responsive to bug reports and feature requests.

I download my dives from my Shearwater to my Macbook Pro, and sync that with my iPhone.

Second @doctormike on MacDive. Too many amazing features to list but I Bluetooth my dives over to my iOS device and do my log right after a dive while it’s fresh. I then sync it via internet and the cloud and it appears on every other iOS or OSX device I have. My only complaint is that it can’t sync via a WiFi connection between two devices - it actually requires internet, which DiveLog and DiveLogDT can do but all else, it’s perfect to me.

OK, so finally went for MacDive. The direct Bluetooth connection without having to go through other app/software/equipment purchases was a deal-breaker for me. Also, syncing with iCloud was a significant feature also.

You'll love MacDive. It works flawlessly between the Perdix and the Mac/IOS items that i have. The cloud backup is a huge piece of mind. The author is actually very responsive on questions if you reach out to him.

I use the SSI app for my dive log and certifications. Does anyone know if MacDive will import to the app? I also have iOS devices for everything except my desktop, which is what I use now for my Shearwater Desktop. I have iCloud on my PC so it should work well, but does anyone have experience syncing to a PC using the MacDive app? Thanks!
