Dashboard

Dashboard

The Dashboard is your home screen — it gives you a snapshot of your diving history and quick paths to the most common tasks, all in one place.

Note

Where to find it: Tap Home (the first tab on mobile, or the top item in the navigation rail on desktop). The Dashboard is the first screen you see when you open Submersion.

Hero header

At the top of the screen, a full-width banner shows a time-of-day greeting alongside your diver name and two career totals: the number of dives you have logged and the total hours you have spent underwater. The banner uses an animated ocean background — caustic light shimmer and rising bubbles — as ambient decoration. When no dives have been logged yet, the totals read zero and a prompt to get started replaces the time summary.

Tip

The name shown in the greeting comes from your Diver Profile. Open Settings and edit your profile to change it.

Activity stats bar

Directly below the hero, a three-column card shows at-a-glance activity counts:

Column	What it shows
Days since last dive	How many days have passed since your most recent dive. Shows "today!" if you dived today.
This month	Number of dives logged in the current calendar month.
This year	Number of dives logged so far in the current calendar year.

All three columns update automatically whenever you add or edit a dive. Pull down on the screen to force a refresh.

Alerts banner

If any of your equipment has a service appointment coming due (or overdue), or if your dive insurance is expiring soon or has already expired, a compact amber warning banner appears between the stats bar and the recent dives list. The banner shows the highest-priority alert and a count badge for how many alerts are pending.

Tapping the banner takes you directly to the relevant screen:

• A single equipment alert opens that piece of equipment.
• An insurance alert opens Settings.
• Multiple alerts open Settings so you can review them all.

The banner is hidden when there are no active alerts.

Tip

Keep equipment service dates and your insurance expiry up to date in Equipment and Diver Profile so the alerts banner can warn you before a deadline passes.

Recent dives

Below the alerts area, the three most recent dives appear as full tiles — the same format used in the Dive Log list, complete with depth, duration, water temperature, rating, tags, and a mini profile chart. Tapping a tile opens that dive's detail view.

A View all button in the section header jumps straight to the complete dive list.

Empty state

If you have not logged any dives yet, the recent dives area shows a wave icon and a Log your first dive button that opens the add-dive sheet. This is the primary get-started prompt for new users.

Personal records and quick actions

The bottom of the Dashboard is divided into two side-by-side cards.

Personal records lists four highlights from your log:

Record	Details
Deepest	Maximum depth recorded across all dives. Tap to open that dive.
Longest	Longest total runtime. Tap to open that dive.
Coldest	Lowest water temperature recorded. Tap to open that dive.
Warmest	Highest water temperature recorded. Tap to open that dive.

Depths display in your preferred unit (metres or feet); temperatures in Celsius or Fahrenheit — both set in Settings. Records show a dash until enough dives are logged to populate them.

Quick actions gives you three one-tap shortcuts:

Button	Action
Log Dive	Opens the add-dive sheet, where you can log manually or import from a dive computer.
Plan Dive	Opens the dive planner in Planning.
Statistics	Navigates to the Statistics screen.

How the Dashboard fills in over time

On a brand-new install every section shows empty or zero states. As you log dives:

• The hero totals climb with each new entry.
• The activity stat columns start counting from the first dive you add.
• Personal records populate as soon as any dive has the relevant data (depth, duration, or water temperature).
• The recent dives tiles update immediately after you save a dive.

You can pull down anywhere on the screen to refresh all sections at once.
