iDeco Pro

This use to be great. Now it opens and immediately closes. Does not work at all. No support to contact

Great app! But they need to update the screen size to fit the new iPhones (Iphone X and newer)

The algorithm used in this app is fairly popular amongst other technical dive computers and their for fairly standardized. The user interface is what really makes this app rock! Everything that needs to be adjustable is and makes those adjustments incredibly easy. Better still is the price! You can’t normally touch software running this algorithm for this little cash. Weather your into technical deco diving or even basic recreational diving this app has something for you. The gas planning/consumption data is helpful in any dive planning scenario. I’ve bought VPM planner and other spendyer apps so I could run dive plans through multiple algorithms and HIGHLY prefer iDeco Pro’s user interface. When comparing deco schedules between the different algorithms, you’ll find there is very small subtle differences.

The most recent NEDU data seem to indicate gradient factor based dive plans are more reliable than VPM and various bubble models that get you out of the water faster. Not having VPM is only really an issue if you need to match the plan to a dive computer that only offers VPM. You should also be checking technical dive plans against multiple sources, so I wouldn’t rely solely on a single app anyway. If this had settings for altitude diving and fresh water, I’d give 5 stars.

Still an antiquated algorithm with the addition of more rainbow farting unicorns. Limited but adequate for light to moderate technical dives. VPM would make this app a real winner and suited for more advanced mixed gas OC/CCR dives. Good for the money tho! V-Planner is still the better choice for the serious technical diver.

Useful, but too many bugs to bother listing. If you rely on it to cut tables (ehhhhh), make sure to double-check the work with a different app! Needs an update really badly. Graphics not entirely compatible with current iOS. Rendering errors abound. I'm starting to suspect this app is "abandon-ware" sadly. Here's hoping I'm wrong.... :(

Decent app. Leaves a lot to be desired. Baltic is better.

The support links go to a website that doesn’t have anything but a splash page. Our diving group uses this program to plan dives, and we use the dive plan email feature to send dives to one another. One thing that’s missing from the email is the surface interval between dives.

As general speaking the app do the job but with some considerations, for example when you plan a deco dive within the app and the dive plan throws you lets say a deco stop at 9m for 8 minutes and you set a leg at the same deep for 10 minutes the app dont recognize the extended level and still set the 9m for 8 minutes stop wich total time will be 18 minutes (extended level plus real deco stop) very diferent from the original 8 minutes or even 10 minutes level. Also would be great to controll the ascent rate, descent rate and sac more precisly . My real deco sac is under the minimum value on the app. Delete waypoints or legs can be tricky because the app delete the waypoint but dont keep the info for the other wp instead the app overlap the info you are triying to delete with the next wp.

Cannot set SAC rate so gas planning is useless.
