Possibly To make Dives Not Count Towards statistics
Love the app it’s definitely the best app around for IOS I have one question, is there a way to make some dives to not be calculated into your overall statistics? I have some dives that only last 25 mins for training purposes and I would like them not to count towards my over all statistics.. Is this possible?

Hi,
Thank you for the positive comments about Dive Log. It always nice to hear that Dive Log is proving useful to divers!
I assume that by "overall statistics" you are referring to the top section of the Statistics tab (for example average dive time, average max depth, etc.). If that is the case, then no, right now there is no option to limit the dives that are considered for these calculations.
You can look at dives filtered by various options including by dive time so it is possible to see all the dives longer than 25 minutes with the appropriate filters on the "Dive Time" section. You could also look at the dives in the "Dive Type or Activity" section so that you don't consider dives with the "training" type applied. In all these sections you can also enter specific criteria in the "search" for the dive list once you tap on a group to further limit the selection. However this just get you total dive time and dive count for these selections.
I am currently looking at some expanded statistics support in Dive Log. I think your requirement might be something that I could look at as part of this update (for example, add things like average dive time and average max depth when viewing a subset of dives). I always appreciate hearing from users as it helps inform how we advance Dive Log. Thank you for sharing your requirements ... hopefully a future version will get closer to meeting your needs in the regard.
Cheers,
Greg

I would like to see this also. Have started on my DM and know there will be a bunch of pool sessions. Would like to record them and print them, but don't want them to count to total time dived and don't want them to have a dive number associated.

Hi,
The easiest way to do this in the current version of Dive Log is to assign a Dive Type/Activity of Pool to all your Pool dives and then use the "Dives By: Dive Type or Activity" to see the total number of dives that have the Pool tag (it will be the number in the bubble next to the item and the total dive time associated with the Pool dives will be listed under the tag) and then you can subtract that value from your total dive count.
I will look to add a specific Statistics section to of Entry Type in a future version of Dive Log so you can just use the existing Pool setting you've already added to your dives in that field so you can use the above steps without any additional data entry.

Re: Possibly To make Dives Not Count Towards statistics
I've just released an updated version of Dive Log that now provides "Entry Type" Statistics (and Charts). So you can now get a count of dives by Entry type of Pool and subtract them from your total dive count without having to add a special Activity type for Pool dives.
The update with this new Statistics type is version 3.8.12 of Dive Log.
