Android Updates

Thursday, August 29th, 2024

There is a new Android update available in the Google Play store and looks like I forgot to write blog posts about the last two Android updates as well, so here are the changes of the updates since the last blog post from March:

Version 6.7 (August):

  • Downloader: Template Dive
  • Downloader: Sync Time
  • Downloader: Import Position
  • Downloader: Mares Quad Ci working now
  • Add Dive: Choose Template Dive
  • OneDrive Sync Fix: The Content-Range header is missing or malformed
  • OneDrive Sync: Upload large file support

Using a template dive in the Android downloader was one of the most requested features recently. And it works so nice that I will port this feature also to the Windows version. You can select any dive from the logbook and it will be copied and updated with the data from the dive computer, which saves a lot of time filling the remaining data:

When adding dives manually, you can also choose the template dive now and you can access the import and download functions from this menu. In the downloader options, you can now choose to sync the dive computer clock with the device clock. You can also choose if you want to import the GPS position of the dive site. Not all dive computers support these functions, of course:

The OneDrive sync was also improved with large file upload support (> 60 MB) and I finally was able to fix the “Content range header” bug, which some users experienced.

Version 6.6 (July):

  • Downloader: Shearwater Peregrine TX und Tern TX support
  • Garmin: New fit library version
  • Garmin: Import improvements
  • Share File Target
  • Exchange File bug fixes
  • OneDrive Refresh Token expiration fix

Most of these changes are self-explanatory. The “Share File Target” means, the Diving Log app will now show up as a file share target in other apps. For example, when you export from the Garmin app to a .fit file, you can select the Diving Log app and the .fit file will automatically show up for import. This makes data exchange a lot easier.

Version 6.5 (May):

  • Downloader: Cressi Bluetooth Support
  • Downloader: Mares Sirius, Puck Air 2, Puck 4 & Quad Ci Support
  • Downloader: Apeks DSX fixes
  • Add images and YouTube videos from URL
  • Import Divesoft new file format support

The Mares Quad Ci was actually not yet working in version 6.5 because of a bug, but this was fixed in version 6.7 (see above). When adding images, you can now add them as link (URL), which can point to an image file or YouTube video:

Windows Phone OneDrive sync alternative

Wednesday, March 13th, 2019

The OneDrive sync function recently stopped working in the Windows Phone app of Diving Log because Microsoft switched off the OneDrive API. As an alternate solution you can use the “Import” and “Export” functions in the logbook management screen to transfer your logbook either to the documents folder, which is accessible from Windows Explorer when the phone is connected to a PC or directly to a cloud storage like OneDrive or Dropbox when the app is installed:

Import and Export your logbook…

…to the phone or cloud storage.

In the Windows Store app you can use the same “Import” and “Export” functions to copy your logbook to the OneDrive folder (or any other folder) as a workaround:
