User Reviews

Several reviews praise Buddy's clean UI, social features, and the Buddy Radar as a strong, community-driven dive logging app with a good free feature set. However, repeat concerns center on the lack of data import/export and dive computer syncing, reliance on paid subscriptions for core capabilities, reported basic-function issues and limited support, and incomplete certification agency coverage.

Pros

Clean, intuitive UI and modern design
Buddy Radar helps find dive buddies and supports social sharing (dives/photos)
Rich community of divers and dive shops
Core features available for free (e.g., social feed, dive log, buddy finder)

Cons

No import of dives from other apps or dive computers; manual data entry required
No Bluetooth dive computer data downloads yet; limited automatic sync
Key features and most value are behind a paywall or subscription
Basic functions have issues and support response appears lacking
Certification tracking is incomplete (missing agencies like GUE, etc.)

Recent reviews

I would love it if they made it so that your dives got uploaded from the dive computer or the app.

1 month free trial charged my account for a month anyway. Scam. Buddy sent notification of a diver in my town but once I signed up there is nobody within 200 miles of my area.
