Ten features, one dive companion. Built for scuba, freediving and technical diving — and for the twenty years of logbook you already have.
Free to start · for iPhone · Works offline
Dives, countries, deepest dive, bottom time. Your last dive with its photo, and what the community is doing right now — the moment you open the app.
Every dive numbered, with site, country, date, depth, time and water temperature. Twenty years in a list you scroll instead of leaf through.
Every site on the world map, with the community's sightings and destinations alongside. Teal for dived, violet for the bucket list — and it works with no signal.
Personal records, dives per year, air consumption, deepest and longest dive. Not louder numbers — the patterns that actually make you better.
PADI, SSI, TDI, IANTD and more — agency-neutral in one wallet. A swipe to show at the dive centre, offline and encrypted.
The dive medical certificate with a reminder before it expires, the short self-check before a dive, insurance and emergency details. All offline on the device.
Twenty years of handwritten entries, a stack of agency log sheets, a messy spreadsheet — point the camera, and Ocean Pulse reads them.
Our import engine turns photographs of paper logbooks into structured digital dives. Hand-written site names, scribbled depths, coffee-stained dates. The history you already have, without a single evening of typing. Every dive you've ever made, finally in one place.
Ocean Pulse surfaces the insights that make you better — patterns, trends and the small cues you'd otherwise miss.
Dives, countries, deepest point, total bottom time. Personal records, dives per year, and conditions broken down by visibility, current, water type and entry method. The numbers you would never keep by hand.
Scan, import or build your own. Every card unique: agency, motif, accent colour — your call.
PADI, SSI, TDI, IANTD and more. Recreational, Specialty, Professional, Technical, Freediver. One tap to scan, one swipe to show. Offline, encrypted, always with you.
Three tools that know when you're ready.
An honest self-check before every dive. Every dive-medical certificate safely stored — with a reminder before it expires. Emergency contacts and hyperbaric chambers worldwide, always offline. Three layers of safety, quiet in the background — loud only when it matters.
Ten levels. Thirty-five badges. A quiet game mechanic that rewards what matters — depth, consistency, variety, responsibility.
Every dive counts. New sites, colder temperatures, new species, longer bottom times — Ocean Pulse quietly watches what you reach, and unlocks recognition. No pop-ups, no points to buy. Just an honest record of your journey beneath the surface.
A logbook that respects the craft. Cloud-synced, offline-ready, designed to be used on a boat — not a desk.
Depth, duration, temperature. Visibility, current, weight. Suit, buoyancy, air consumption. Buddy, site, wrecks, caves, sightings. Every dive captured the moment you surface. Statistics that make you a better diver — not louder metrics, but the patterns that actually matter: trends in your consumption, your preferred depth range, the species you keep meeting, the sites that keep calling you back. Thirty-nine data points per dive in total — from reef to wreck.
From the idea of a trip to the moment you roll off the boat — Ocean Pulse helps plan both the dives and the journey around them.
Chain sites by distance. Check seasonal conditions. Pack with an equipment list that knows what you've logged. A curated atlas of reefs, wrecks and walls — sourced from OpenStreetMap, Wikidata and GBIF, refined by every dive the crew logs. Next stop: your choice.
Personal insights, ocean knowledge and a community that dives with you. Milestones, air-consumption trends, monthly polls and facts worth knowing.
43 hours underwater. Average SAC 14.2 l/min. 68% logged a buddy on their last dive. Ocean Pulse notices the milestones you would otherwise scroll past, and puts them next to what the rest of the crew is doing.
Eleven quick questions across three thoughtful steps — how you feel, your health, your readiness. Honest answers, a clear picture.
A quick self-check before you dive. Sleep, stress, symptoms, medication — three screens, honest answers, a clear recommendation. Not an algorithm that clears you. A mirror that reminds you to be honest with yourself.
For personal reflection only, and deliberately not a medical assessment. Fitness to dive is decided by a dive physician, never by an app.
Import existing logs as UDDF, SML, XML or CSV — from Suunto, Shearwater, Garmin, Mares, Scubapro and Subsurface. Pick exactly which dives come across.
No starting from scratch, and no lock-in either: what you import you can export again as a formatted PDF.
Scuba, freediving or technical — the right details for every dive mode, instead of one form for everything.
English, German, Spanish and French — the whole app, not just the menus. Including the tips, the ocean events and the safety information.
The full App Store gallery — every screen, exactly as it ships.
Five to forty metres — the depth divers are in regularly, and the one research has the least data from. Coral colour, fish abundance, temperature at depth: what you see on every dive anyway.
Voluntary, no name attached, revocable at any time — and it gates no feature, neither on the free tier nor with Pro. Until a research partner is named, everything stays with you: the consent has to exist before the first transfer, not after. Programmes like CoralWatch at the University of Queensland have been collecting exactly these diver assessments for over twenty years. That is where these observations belong, and that is the connection we are working towards. The moment it changes, you read it here.
No ads, no trackers, nothing sold. What you log stays yours — and until a research partner is named, no observation leaves the app.
Three things worth being precise about — because a dive log holds your health, your travel and your habits.
No ads, no trackers, nothing sold. Your data is encrypted on device and in the cloud, and what you log stays yours.
The scanner reads photos of paper logbooks and certification cards to fill in fields for you. It is a typing shortcut, not a decision-maker — every value stays editable before you save.
Dive Readiness is a structured self-check, not a fitness-to-dive assessment. Medical certificates, insurance and emergency details are stored for you to show — never scored, never shared.
Ocean Pulse is a native iOS app from the App Store — cloud-synced, offline-ready, made for the boat. No browser, no second device, no detour.
300+ seasonal ocean events keep you informed year-round. Manta season in the Maldives, whale sharks in Mexico, coral spawning in Australia — never miss what's happening beneath the surface.
Import your dive history from Suunto, Garmin, Shearwater, Mares, and more. Supports FIT, UDDF, SML, and CSV. Select exactly which dives to import.
Snap a photo of your paper logbook and let AI extract all dive data automatically. Date, depth, duration, buddy — recognized and filled in seconds.
35 achievement badges and 10 diver levels — from Seahorse to Leviathan. Track your progress and unlock milestones as you explore the underwater world.
A quick 7-point safety check before every dive. Track your medical certificate expiry, dive insurance, and emergency contacts — all in one place.
Unlimited dive logs, AI-powered scanning, PDF export, weight presets, and every future feature. One subscription. Everything unlocked.
Export your complete dive logbook as a beautifully formatted PDF — ready for dive centers, insurance claims, or your own archive.
Log every species you encounter. Sharks, turtles, mantas, nudibranchs — build your personal sighting list and contribute to citizen science.
Dream destinations, best seasons, highlights — plan your next dive trip and check off the world's most iconic sites.
Log dives without internet. Your data syncs automatically when you're back online. Because the best dive sites don't have WiFi.
Free to start. Pro when you're ready.
Subscriptions bought in the iOS app run through your Apple account and can be cancelled any time in the iOS settings. Start free and log without limits. Upgrade to Pro for AI import, advanced statistics and trip planning. Your data stays yours, always.
Ocean Pulse Pro unlocks the deeper features — unlimited AI imports, advanced statistics, trip planning, exports. The logbook itself, the certification wallet and the health tools need no subscription.
Clear answers on dive logbooks, digital memories, citizen science and sustainable diving.
Oceanpulse.life is a dive app and digital dive logbook that brings dives, certifications, and marine life encounters together in one place. Built by divers, it helps preserve personal memories long-term and record observations in a form ocean research can use.
A digital dive logbook makes your dives searchable, secure, and accessible from anywhere. It stores depth, duration, visibility, and sightings without risk of loss. It also generates automatic statistics that paper logbooks can't offer.
No. Many divers love their handwritten logbook and its personal touch. A dive app is more of a useful complement that backs up analog memories and adds features like maps, statistics, and photos.
With a modern dive app, paper logbooks can be captured by photo. Date, depth, dive site, and buddy are recognized and added automatically. Analog dives stay preserved — even if the original fades or gets lost.
Paper can get wet, yellow, or be lost entirely. A digital backup protects decades of dive history from water, travel, or moves. Both formats complement each other — the handwriting stays, the data survives.
Useful dive documentation covers date, dive site, depth, duration, buddy, conditions, and sightings. Photos, notes, and personal impressions add depth to each entry. A digital dive logbook keeps everything structured and searchable.
Travel memories live through places, encounters, and stories. A dive app links each dive to its dive site on the map, sighted species, photos, and personal notes. Every trip becomes a lasting Ocean Journal.
Sightings can be added to each dive as a marine-life list — from manta rays to nudibranchs. With date, location, and optional photos, a personal sightings catalog grows that's also useful for citizen science.
A modern dive app captures far more than depth and duration. Key values include air consumption (SAC), cumulative dive time, number of spots, countries visited, streaks, and trends across months and years. A structured digital dive logbook can hold 39 or more data points per dive — from suit type to visibility.
SAC stands for Surface Air Consumption and describes a diver's average air use, converted to surface pressure — usually in litres per minute. A lower SAC means longer dives and more safety reserve. A dive app calculates it automatically and shows how it develops over time.
A dive app stores the weight used for every configuration — suit type, fresh or salt water, tank material. Over time, this builds reliable weight presets that replace trial-and-error at the dive site. The result: less air wasted, less time lost, better trim.
A dive app stores all certifications in a digital wallet — Recreational, Specialty, Pro, Tec, and Freediving. Agency-neutral, meaning SSI, PADI, SDI, NAUI, CMAS, AIDA, and TDI side by side. Dive centers can see the status in seconds without asking for plastic cards or translations.
A valid dive medical confirms physical fitness for diving and is required in many countries and at many dive centers. It protects you from accidents caused by undiagnosed conditions. A dive app stores the certificate safely and reminds you well before expiry — usually two months ahead.
Good emergency preparation covers personal emergency contacts, blood type, allergies, valid dive insurance, plus the DAN hotline and the nearest decompression chamber. A dive app keeps it all offline on your phone — one tap, and the right number dials automatically.
Decompression chambers are unevenly distributed worldwide — at remote dive sites, preparation matters. A dive app lists the nearest chambers with address, phone, and accessibility, also offline. At every spot, you know exactly where hyperbaric treatment is available in case of emergency.
Dive insurance is strongly recommended — dive accidents often lead to high costs, especially for hyperbaric treatment, rescue, or repatriation. It costs less than a single uninsured emergency. A dive app keeps the policy, emergency number, and status close at hand so you can act immediately if needed.
A dive readiness check is a quick self-assessment before every dive — sleep, stress, symptoms, medications. It's not an algorithm that clears you, but an honest mirror that surfaces physical or mental risks early. Honest answers lead to calmer and safer diving.
Citizen science means divers contribute to marine research through their observations. Sightings, water temperatures, and reef conditions across thousands of dives help scientists detect changes in the ocean — without any extra effort.
By recording the observations marine research is missing between five and forty metres — coral colour, fish abundance, temperature at depth. Sharing them is opt-in and revocable at any time, and it begins only once a research partner is named. Until then every observation stays in your own account.
Sustainable diving means not damaging reefs, respecting wildlife, and contributing through observation. Documenting sightings and reporting trash or reef damage makes you part of active ocean conservation.
A dive community connects like-minded people and shares spots, tips, and sightings worldwide. It creates inspiration for the next trip, honest experiences, and the feeling of being part of something bigger.
An Ocean Journal is more than a logbook — it brings together dives, travel, sightings, and personal impressions. It captures the feeling underwater, not just the data. Digital Ocean Journals can be exported as PDF or shared with others.
Modern dive apps store data encrypted in the cloud and on device. Backups and sync ensure dives stay accessible even after years. Scientific contributions happen only anonymously and voluntarily.
Dives are often the most intense travel moments — and pass quickly. Saved digitally as Ocean Memories, you can recall years later exactly when, where, and with whom a dive happened. Memories stay alive — and sometimes become scientifically relevant.
