Shearwater Peregrine TX: download dives to an iPhone logbook
The Loggerfish iPhone app downloads dives from a Shearwater Peregrine TX over Bluetooth, free on every plan. Loggerfish works with 105 dive computers, 4 of them verified by us.
What you need
- The Loggerfish iPhone app. Bluetooth download is not in the web app.
- Nothing to pay. Downloading from your dive computer is free on every plan.
- The computer in Bluetooth mode and close to the phone, with the manufacturer’s own app closed, which can hold the connection.
How it goes
- Open More, then Import, and choose “Download from your dive computer”.
- Press “Find my dive computer” and choose your computer from the list.
- Keep the computer close and the screen on. Reading a full log can take a few minutes.
- Read the preview of the dives, then press Import.
What to expect
- Dives already in your logbook are recognised, so a second download adds only the new ones.
- A dive computer records no site and no sightings. Add them from the logbook afterwards.
- The factory test dive stored on a new computer is skipped, with its reason.
- Where the computer’s summary leaves out the temperature, the tank pressures or the average depth, they are worked out from the dive’s samples.
- A first tank pressure that was read later than two minutes into the dive is not taken as the start pressure, so that dive shows no start pressure and no air consumption.
- A plain Shearwater Peregrine is accepted too, because the TX announces itself as “Peregrine”. We have not tried a plain one.
Checked on a real computer
We downloaded real dives from a Shearwater Peregrine TX and checked them against the computer’s own log.
Other computers
Other dive computers are not supported yet. Their files still import: Garmin .fit files, and UDDF from Shearwater Cloud or Subsurface.
