Love the computer, hate the software, (LogTrak). Like the Bluetooth download capability but the UI is flaky as crap. Anyone use the Aladin H with a good alternate app? Thx in advance.

If it is Bluetooth, check out Mac-Dive (if you are on a Mac) or Diving Log 6.0, or Subsurface. All of these programs are actively supported and will work with other dive computers too, so if you change brands you don't lose your logbook. I can't recommend Mac-Dive enough, but I have had excellent support from the Diving Log folks as well. I don't have personal experience with Subsurface, but I recently transferred a logbook to it just to check out the interface. Subsurface is free. The others are a nominal fee.
 
Do you use a Scubapro Aladin H with Dive Log 6.0? Dive log 6.0 doesn't seem to have a direct connect, (via BLE) to my comp. So far I'm only able to import in DL 6.0 via Logtrak and even that's not bring over all the info...
 
I presume Subsurface will interface with it. Try it out, excellent.

I've never even seen an Aladin H. I stopped buying Aladin computers with a Tec 2G that I used in gauge mode. I now have two Shearwater Petrel computers, but used SmartTrak for a lot of dives and then struggled with options getting my data into software that was actually supported. The conversion from Smart Trak to LogTrak was a joke. My application was more Mac specific, and after I switched to Mac-Dive, I used the Shearwater data with all of the details instead of Tec 2G data which was in gauge mode. I actually ended up going back and redoing my logbook with the Shearwater data for any dives that I had data for.

FYI the Aladin H (Matrix) is just like the Aladin Sport Matrix, just without the *wireless* AI. You can download it using Dive Log (iOS) and DiveLogDT (macOS) using Bluetooth Low Energy.

Email us if you have any questions,
