The Oceanic+ app from Huish Outdoors is a handy app for Apple Watch Ultra users to help them transform their smartwatch into a fully functioning dive watch. The app enables the wearable to work as a dive computer down to depths of 130-feet, and enables divers to set the time, depth and gas settings prior to getting into the water. Users can view their entry and exit points thanks to GPS mapping after a dive, while also providing a summary of their expedition.
The Oceanic+ app provides color-coded safety guidance along with ample metrics for divers to take advantage of when in the water. The app includes a series of free features, while the location planning, decompression tracking and logbook are available for $9.99 per month or $79.99 a year.
