We are +developing a companion application for Android that will allow you to +track dive sites from your GPS-enabled Android device; at the time of +the Subsurface 3.0 release the app wasn't ready to be submitted to the +Google Play store, but since it is mostly usable when built form +source we left the server side integration in Subsurface. + +Assuming you have used the companion app to name and locate dive sites +you can use this menu item to connect to our backend server and +download this data. Enter your userid (you got this when registering +with the web service) and click 'Download'. If the data was +successfully downloaded you can click apply and Subsurface will match +the time stamps of the downloaded location and site name information +with the dives in your log and will add the GPS locations and dive +site names to your dives. + + [[S_Menu]] The menu and sub-menus ----------------------
