<div class="paragraph">
<p>Welcome to <em>Subsurface-mobile</em>, the mobile version of <em>Subsurface</em>, advanced dive logging
software with extensive infrastructure to display, organize, and interpret scuba
and free dives. <em>Subsurface</em> runs on Windows, macOS, most common distributions of Linux.
<em>Subsurface-mobile</em> is available for Android and iOS. Both are
open-source software (in simple terms that means that there is no commercial interest behind
them, all the source code needed to build them is available, there are no ads, no one is
monetizing your data, etc).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><em>Subsurface-mobile</em> is a limited mobile version of the desktop software <em>Subsurface</em>,
aimed at Android and iOS smartphone and tablet devices.
While the desktop version of <em>Subsurface</em> shows much more detailed information
for each dive, the mobile version allows a more accessible dive log on the go. For example,
you can prove dive experience on a dive trip to dive shops or review
previous dives while on a dive boat. <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> also allows
the gathering of GPS locations where dives are performed.
Assuming you have a dive computer that is supported by the mobile OS of
your choice, <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> supports the downloading of dives from your dive computer.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Users of <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> often use the
mobile app together with the desktop version of <em>Subsurface</em>,  sharing dive information
between the mobile and the desktop versions using a free <em>Subsurface Cloud</em> account.
However <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> is a fully fledged application in its own right that can
also be used independently of the desktop version with or without the use of cloud storage.
<em>Subsurface-mobile</em> allows:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Download and storage of dive log information using the <em>Subsurface</em> cloud.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Viewing this information on a mobile device.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Manually creating and adding new dive records to your dive log.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Download dive data directly from some dive computers.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Editing most of the dive log data, e.g. dive-master, buddy,
equipment or notes relating to a dive.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Recording, storing and applying GPS positions to dive information.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Viewing the localities of recorded GPS positions and of dives
on a map.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>These items are discussed in greater detail below.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><em>Subsurface-mobile</em> has some limitations compared to <em>Subsurface</em>:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Only a subset of the dive computers supported for download by the desktop
version work with <em>Subsurface-mobile</em>, this being determined
by hardware and OS limitations in the
two mobile platforms. On Android, a subset of
dive computers that use USB serial cables or a Bluetooth / Bluetooth LE interface
are accessible. On iOS, only Bluetooth LE based
dive computers are supported.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>No dive planner.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>No printing.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>No support for media embedded in dive profiles (<em>Subsurface</em> allows access to
images and video clips directly from the dive profile).</p>
</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="_installing_subsurface_mobile_on_your_mobile_device">1. Installing <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> on your mobile device</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Find <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> in the <em>Google Play Store</em> or the <em>Apple App Store</em>
and install it. For Android devices without access to the <em>Google Play Store</em>,
APKs can be found in the downloads folder on the <em>Subsurface</em> website.</p>

<h2 id="_getting_support">2. Getting Support</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The best place to get support is the <a href="https://subsurface-divelog.org/user-forum"><em>Subsurface</em> User Forum</a>. Additionally, <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> allows
you to send a support request by tapping on <em>Ask for support</em> in the <em>Help</em> menu. This will open an
email to our in-app-support address in the native email client, including the relevant logs.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_user_interface">3. User Interface</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p><em>Subsurface-mobile</em> uses the same user interface philosophy on both Android and iOS, based on an
open source project called <em>Kirigami</em>, maintained by the <em>KDE/Plasma</em> development community.
It has a slightly different look and feel than many native Android and iOS apps,
but we find it easy and intuitive to work with.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You have access to the <em>Main menu</em> through a <em>Hamburger</em> button (three short
horizontal lines) in the lower left corner of the screen. Additionally, the <em>Main menu</em> can be opened by swiping
towards the right from the very left edge of the screen.
In addition, many screens have a <em>Context menu</em> available through a button with three vertical dots in
the lower right corner and that can be opened by tapping and holding a dive or trip header in the dive list.</p>

<p>At the bottom of many <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> screens is a round
<em>Action button</em> that provides quick access to the most commonly needed
actions on that screen (see image on the left). Some screens have only
the round central button, others have one or two additional
actions on either side of the central button.</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>Tap the "No cloud mode" button. The app will only store dive log information locally
on your device. Following installation an empty dive log is created.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_using_cloud_storage">4.2. Using Cloud Storage</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <em>Subsurface</em> maintainer provides a dedicated and
free Internet cloud storage account for users of <em>Subsurface</em> and <em>Subsurface-mobile</em>.
You can use this to store your dive log and to share your data between several computers
and devices. The <em>Subsurface</em> team never accesses your dive data without explicit
permission to do so, the data are not used for any other purpose than providing them to the user who
created them. There are no ads and no harvesting / analysis of the data / monetization of data
on the <em>Subsurface Cloud</em> storage.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><em>Subsurface-mobile</em> is sufficient to fully maintain a dive log. In addition you can use the
more advanced features in <em>Subsurface</em> when you have access to a computer while still
being able to work with your dive data when only a mobile device is available.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The dive data in the cloud are cached locally on any device or computer that is connected to
the <em>Subsurface Cloud</em> account.
It is easy to create backups of the data (for example in XML format) on the desktop: both the mobile
device and the desktop keep a local copy of the data so that the dive log is always accessible, even
without an Internet connection.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To create a <em>Subsurface Cloud</em> account follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>1) Enter an e-mail address and a password in the fields indicated on the screen (see image above).
The e-mail address should be in lower case and the password should contain a combination of
upper and lower case letters and/or numbers.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>2) Tap the "Sign-in or Register" button.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If you have already set
up an account on a different computer or device, simply enter the same credentials here.
<em>Subsurface-mobile</em> will now download your existing dive log data. Once the dive
list has been downloaded from the cloud, <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> usually works only with the the local
copy on the mobile device. This avoids long delays or even failure of operations if there is poor
internet connectivity. Remember to manually sync
with the server after making local changes (either by pulling down on the dive list, or by using the
manual sync entry in the Dive management menu entry).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>3) If this is a new cloud account, a PIN screen will open (see right image above). A PIN is e-mailed
to the email address entered in the previous step. Enter this PIN into the field indicated
and tap the <em>Register</em> button. After the PIN has been entered it
is no longer needed - it just proves that this is indeed your email account.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vp_bEm5ZDRA"><strong>video-tutorial</strong></a> is available that demonstrates
how to connect to the cloud.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>At this point a new account has been created for you on the cloud server and access to the cloud is
enabled. In this case the dive list is initially empty. Start entering dives in the dive
log or download dive information from a supported dive computer.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Once registered, <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> remembers the cloud credentials and it is not necessary to
provide these again when launching the program.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <em>Dive List</em> is the heart of <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> because most of the actions
center around the dives on the dive list. While the dive list is loading from the cloud,
a message appears at the bottom of the screen, indicating that the cloud is
being accessed, after which the dive list is shown. Once the list is loaded you can scroll up
and down through your dive history.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The Dive List consists of two types of entries:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p><strong>Trip headers</strong>. A trip header is a line describing the year and month during which a dive trip
took place, as wel as the geographical area of the trip. The second line in the lefthand image below indicates that a 10-dive trip
was made to Guinjata, Moçambique during December 2016.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Individual dive records</strong>. Tapping a trip header expands the dive list to show (or hide) the individual dives performed during the trip. Each dive is represented by a dive record. By default the dives during the last trip are listed with older dives at the bottom and recent dives at the top of the list. In the lefthand image below the last dive during
the Guinjata trip was in the Inhambane Estuary.</p>

<p>You can manually add a dive to the existing dive list. On the dive list
tap the "plus" sign in the action bar, or use the

the bottom of the <em>Dive List</em>, or you can select <em>Dive management &#8594;  Download from DC</em> in the main menu.
On Android devices, when you plug in a USB serial cable for a dive computer, the <em>Download Page</em> will be
opened automatically. A screen is shown requiring that the user specify
the names of the vendor and model of the dive computer. For instance, when using a Shearwater Petrel dive
computer, the vendor is <em>Shearwater</em> and the Dive computer name is <em>Petrel</em> (see image on the left, below).
<strong>Caveats:</strong> The download feature in smartphones supports only a limited number of dive computers. On
Android devices these are typically dive computers using a serial USB interface
using a USB OTG cable or a simple USB C-A adapter on newer devices.
Android devices also support Bluetooth dive computers that
are supported in <em>Subsurface</em> on the desktop. Both Android and iOS devices allow direct
download of dive data from a handful of Bluetooth LE enabled dive
computers. Use the <em>Vendor name</em> and <em>Dive Computer</em> drop-downs to pick the correct
dive computer. When downloading from multiple different dive computers, shortcut
buttons appear below the drop-downs to easily switch between them. In the <a href="#S_Settings"><em>Settings</em></a> menu

<p>This <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCi70WZMTws"><strong>video-tutorial</strong></a> demonstrates downloading dives from a
Bluetooth-equipped dive computer.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The process for Bluetooth download differs between Android and iOS. In <strong>iOS</strong> the best
results are obtained when the dive computer was
in Bluetooth LE mode before <em>Subsurface-mobile</em> is started. On most dive
computers this is done through a menu entry, others (e.g. Suunto) always respond to Bluetooth LE requests.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In contrast, for Bluetooth-equipped dive computers and <strong>Android</strong> devices, first establish a Bluetooth connection
between the dive computer and the
mobile device using Android system tools to achieve pairing.
For many Android devices,
the Settings &#8594; Bluetooth tool of Android is probably appropriate.
<em>Subsurface-mobile</em> performs communication using both Bluetooth and Bluetooth LE (BLE).
The best choice of Bluetooth communication is often made by the software and the user need not be concerned
with this.
For dive computers with both Bluetooth and BLE, a separate dive computer button is presented on the download
screen for each mode of communication, allowing a choice. Use the <em>Connection</em> value to distinguish between the
two options. In the image on the right, below, there are three buttons labeled "Shearwater Petrel 2".
These represent two Shearwater Petrel dive computers, one of which can communicate in both Bluetooth as well as BLE.
The <em>Connection</em> information in the image below indicates that the Petrel with no BLE is selected. For
Bluetooth LE dive computers, the <em>Connection</em> value has an "LE" prefix.</p>

You can choose to always sync with the cloud server. This is not
recommended unless you are in
an area with a fast and reliable Internet connection, as otherwise
<em>Subsurface-mobile</em> might appear to hang between operations as it tries to
connect to the cloud server. Selecting <em>Enable cloud auto sync</em> causes

<p>GPS-derived coordinates on a smartphone
are not always accurate and can have an error greater than 1 km. GPS accuracy
is determined by the hardware and software of the
smartphone as well as by the GPS settings selected within Android/iOS.
As of Android V6 (Marshmallow) select Android <em>Settings &#8594; Communication &#8594; Location &#8594; High accuracy</em>*.
If the smartphone is taken on the boat
during a dive, locations can be automatically recorded at regular intervals.
These locations can then be applied to dives in the dive list as described below</p>

<p>To collect dive site coordinates four step are required:</p>

<h3 id="S_ConfigureGPS">10.1. Configuring the GPS service</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For most users, the defaults for tracking GPS locations are
appropriate. If you would like to change them, go to
the <em>Main Menu</em>, select the <a href="#S_Settings"><em>Settings</em></a> screen, and open
the <em>Advanced</em> area on that page where there is a section for
configuring the GPS service (see image below). GPS location data
are collected at regular intervals, e.g. every 5 minutes, or at regular
distances, e.g. after the boat has moved more than 200m, or a combination of
both of these approaches. Provide the appropriate information and
tap the <em>Back</em> button. The program is now ready to collect GPS positions.</p>

<em>Subsurface-mobile</em> starts to collect GPS locations automatically,
following the preferences specified as described above. While the GPS
location service is running, all menus have a GPS symbol at the bottom,
indicating that the service is active. After returning from
the dive, deactivate the collection of GPS data by tapping
the option <em>Location &#8594; Disable location service</em>. The GPS symbol at the bottom
of menus disappears.</p>
<p class="tableblock">Collecting GPS fixes like this is relatively battery intensive and unfortunately
both Android and especially iOS have become increasingly aggressive in killing
applications that are running while the screen is turned off. It may make sense
to check between dives that the location service is still running. On the other hand
the battery consumption of a smartphone with GPS enabled is often significantly less than
the battery consumption of a dedicated GPS that is logging a track.</p></td>

up a list of GPS positions obtained by the location service (image
below). Two actions are possible for each of the locations, enabled by
dragging the right part of a location to the left. This exposes two
options. Tapping the dustbin deletes this particular GPS location. Tapping the
teardrop-shaped icon (actually a Google Maps pin) opens up Google Maps with a pin
indicating the exact map position of the GPS record being viewed. The two above
options can be hidden by drawing the GPS record to the right.</p>
