New features and improvements in the app and on the web, month by month, newest first.
5 updates
Connect your dive computer over Bluetooth and its dives come straight into your log, on iPhone and Android: more than 100 models by Shearwater, Suunto, Mares, Scubapro and others. You check every dive before it is saved, dives already in your log are marked, and the next download brings only the new ones. Each dive keeps the real depth graph your computer recorded.
Pick where your dives are now, Subsurface, Garmin, Suunto, Divelogs.de or another app, and Scubaspot shows how to export them. Dives already in your log are marked before you import.
Tap + and your next dive is ready to log: a suggested dive site is already chosen, one button logs it, and Change picks another. New to Scubaspot? The + starts your logbook, with one dive or the dives you already have.
Exports keep °F and cubic feet
A dive logged in Fahrenheit or cubic feet exports its real temperatures and cylinder size.
Suunto Dive Manager profiles stay true
Dives imported from Suunto Dive Manager keep their profile’s times and temperatures.
13 updates
Start a trip from the + button: where you are going, when, and the sites you hope to dive. While you are away, every dive you log and every post you share lands on the trip by itself, and a day without diving can be marked as a rest day.
The trip map draws the route between the places you dived, with your photos as the markers. Under it the timeline goes day by day, and when you are home the recap counts the dives, the time underwater and the deepest point.
Dive centers and clubs run their trips on Scubaspot, from a morning boat dive to a week away. Each shows where to meet, the level, the price and the spots left, and you join with a tap. Search has a Trips tab with day trips near you.
Add photos or videos to a dive and the app tries to identify the marine life in them. What it recognises is added to your log, tagged AI, and you can edit it like any other sighting. A dive site lists the marine life divers logged there.
Import reads UDDF, Subsurface, Garmin FIT, Suunto, Divelogs.de and CSV, several files at once and without duplicates. Export writes UDDF, Subsurface, Divelogs.de, Suunto and CSV, and tells you what a format cannot hold before you save.
A site's page leads with its name, place and ratings, with tabs for the dives logged there, the site's details, the weather now and the dive shops nearby.
Your page leads with your trips. Plan one with its meeting point, capacity and price, start the next trip from the last one, and see who has joined. Page insights show how often your trips are viewed.
Type @ in a comment, a post or your dive notes to mention another diver. They get a notification, and the name links to their profile.
Every search tab opens on suggestions instead of an empty box: active divers, clubs and dive centers near you, and trips to plan. The + button suggests where your next dive is.
Dive sites say where they are
Dive sites show their town or island, their region and their country, the way divers name them: Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras.
Find a site by its town
Site search finds a dive site by its town or island, and by a name with an apostrophe.
Password rules as you type
Creating or changing a password lists its four rules and ticks them off as you type.
What stays when you delete your account
The Delete account screen says what goes and what stays: comments, likes and reviews you left stay, shown as from a deleted account.
2 updates
Fresh visuals, cleaner navigation and a modern feel make logging and reviewing your dives smoother. Every screen was reworked so the things you do most often are closer to hand and the details you care about are easier to read.
A proper dark mode now covers the whole app, far easier on the eyes for night-time reviews and pre-dawn prep. Checking tomorrow's site from a dark cabin or flicking through the day's dives on the ride back no longer lights up the room.
5 updates
Your logbook, your profile and the feed follow a new dark theme with deep backgrounds, softer contrast and dive details that stay easy to read. Switch between light and dark whenever you like, and your choice follows you to every device you sign in on.
Dive logs open faster
Leaner database queries and steadier synchronization make your dive logs open noticeably quicker than before.
Notifications arrive on time
Notifications now arrive when they should.
Saving a dive log, fixed
Saving a dive log no longer trips over itself.
A cleaner feed as you scroll
The feed renders cleanly as you scroll.
7 updates
Create a page, fill in your details and let divers follow you. Post updates, log dives and publish straight to your page. Add managers so your team can keep things running, transfer ownership when staff move on, and let divers message you directly.
Videos in the feed now autoplay as you scroll, right where you find them, with no tap required.
Send the full record of a dive to whoever was alongside you, and they accept it straight into their logbook and can tweak anything. Share with one buddy or a whole group at once, or invite someone by email if they are not on Scubaspot yet.
Quicker loads, smoother scrolling
Big performance fixes across the app mean quicker loads and smoother scrolling throughout.
Notifications you control
Toggle push and email notifications separately, and delete the notifications you are done with.
Suggest a better site name
Suggest fixes to dive site names so the whole community benefits.
15 updates
A full export to Universal Dive Data Format (UDDF): one tap, every dive. No lock-in, no waiting, and your data stays in your hands.
Map layers now span the entire app. Switch the map imagery on the fly, or set your favorite as the default in preferences so every dive site and route opens exactly how you like it.
Export your data as CSV when you need it outside the app.
The importer was rebuilt for speed and reliability, with fewer hiccups and faster runs when you merge years of dives. Whether you are consolidating apps or recovering an old export, the path from file to logbook is a lot smoother.
The dive log was reimagined: it is clearer, faster to scan and built for actually using your data. Its star is a dive profile graph that charts depth and temperature over time from real waypoint data, not a flat guess.
You now get a push notification when someone reacts to one of your chat messages. Badge counts are also reconciled better, so your unread counts stay accurate.
Change one value in your gas mixture and the other adjusts automatically, so entering your mix is faster and less error-prone.
Gear, reorganized
Gear is reorganized so your default kit is obvious.
Default buddies stand out
Buddies got the same treatment: it is now clear who is a default buddy and who is not.
A more consistent feel
The UI is tighter across the app, and bugs were fixed along the way.
The details, polished
Bugs squashed, interactions tightened and dozens of small UI moments polished.
Buddies, refreshed

Dive numbers on profile feeds
Dive numbers display and load correctly on profile feeds.
Tidier dive and post screens
Text fields line up, and the log dive, edit dive, create post and edit post screens no longer have styling issues or keyboard quirks.
Manage buddies, less empty space
The manage buddy screen lost its excess whitespace.
11 updates
Pull your history into Scubaspot from Subsurface (SSRF), Divelogs.de (DLD) and Universal Dive Data Format (UDDF) files, and land with one coherent logbook instead of starting from scratch.
Import several files at once, even from different platforms, and the app detects duplicate dives by date and time. Matching entries fold into a single record that keeps the richest detail from each source, so depth, profiles, buddies and notes are kept where they overlap.
Nothing is written to your logbook before a clear review step. Choose exactly which dives to include, set metric or imperial units for all of them in one pass, and mark them all private or public at once.
Your dive buddies are now in one place, with a way to mark the ones you dive with most. Choose default buddies and they are added to every new dive log automatically, so you spend less time selecting them each time you log a dive.
Polish along the way
Smaller bugs were fixed and the UI polished, so the whole import flow feels as capable as the feature underneath it.

The dive log, dive site and certificate screens went back to the drawing board. The result is cleaner layouts, smoother animations and a more polished feel with every tap, swipe and scroll.
Smoother transitions
Slide and fade animations now guide you from screen to screen, so every navigation feels fluid.
No more crashes in spinners
Scrolling spinners no longer cause crashes.
Smoother sign-in

Sign-in and sign-up are redesigned to get you underwater faster. The new screens are cleaner, more intuitive and feel right at home in the app.
Pick your preferred units on the More screen, and depth and temperature inputs default to them when you log a new dive. The setting only affects new entries: your existing dive logs stay exactly as you recorded them.
