RE: Missing dive on Garmin dive app logbook

1905447 — Thu, 28 May 2026 06:09:37 GMT

Since the dive is still stored on your MK3i, you could try deleting the device from Garmin Dive/Garmin Connect and then pairing it again to trigger a full sync. You can also try syncing through the Garmin Connect app first before opening Garmin Dive. In some cases, restarting the watch and forcing a manual sync helps recover missing activities. Hopefully Garmin can add an easier “re-import dive” option in the future.

Missing dive on Garmin dive app logbook

8225588 — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 07:39:45 GMT

I accidentally deleted a dive that was recorded in my logbook on Garmin Dive. On my MK3i, this dive is still saved. I tried refreshing the synchronization between my MK3i and Garmin Dive, but the missing dive was not transferred. How can I “force” this transfer from my MK3i? Thank you for your help.

Logging Dives from both Decent Mk3i and X50i

9461796 — Fri, 06 Jun 2025 16:39:34 GMT

In Garmin Dive setup I set a starting dive number of 1046. The logs have some dives from the Mk3i and some dives from the X50i counting from 1046 but others counting from 1. The Mk3i is set as primary.

If I delete all logs:

Can I set the starting dive number to 1046, again?

How can I tell the Mk3i to reload all it's dives again? In hopes it starts with 1047.

It seems like a software enhancement is needed to be able to separate dive logs by computer model before I should try to upload dives from the X50i again.

What I’m doing currently is putting the mk3i in pool mode so it will not log the dives.
I’m still hoping for an update/ that allows us to choose in the app.

I also have the MK3i and have upgraded to the X50i. I want to use the X50i as primary and MK3i as backup but have no idea how to do it. I have done one diving day with them both. In the dive app they both downloaded and the numbers were correct but I only want to download load from the X50i. Not sure of the best way use these two computers to the best advantage.

Today's dives show in Connect but not Dive app

maylease — Fri, 22 May 2026 00:22:00 GMT

Today's dives are logged in my MK3i and show up in connect but do not appear in Dive app.

Ive syncd many times, Uninstalled and reinstalled the app, rebooted phone and watch.

I also did the trick where you log in to garmin connect via web, make a minor edit to the Dive activity and save it. But the dives still don't appear in Dive app. Help please! Currently on a dive trip and would like to resolve it.

RE: Activities dissapear from Garmin dive

MNMORENCY — Fri, 22 May 2026 00:21:05 GMT

Same situation for my wife and I. We did 4 dives today. All of them appear in the Connect App activities, but the last three are not syncing with Garmin Dive (only the first dive at 9am AST.) We have been on a dive trip for the past week, and all dives were syncing fine until late this morning. We're using Garmin Descent MK3. Seems like an issue with Garmin Dive systems.

Activities dissapear from Garmin dive

ecajiao — Fri, 22 May 2026 00:21:04 GMT

After today's dive, my activities show on connect but not on dive, I opened the dive app and they where there for a few seconds then they dissapear.

I was using the X50i and the Fénix 8 as a backup.

Garmin Dive app, the best solution is usually to manually upload or re-import the activity into Garmin Connect. Refresh syncing alone often doesn’t restore deleted logbook entries once they’ve been removed from the app database.

RE: Bug Report - Dive Numbers don't sync between web and Android app correctly

6249072 — Mon, 11 May 2026 15:13:29 GMT

This was actually an issue between the web based Garmin Connect (chrome browser on a pc) and the Garmin Dive App. The Garmin dive app is version 3.5 the Garmin Connect app currently installed on my phone is 5.24.1 (android pixel 7).

I entered all my old dives on the web browser as manual activities and labeled them the same as my dives that auto logged with the watch. I've already manually resolved the records but in the screen shots attached where it says 1. koloa landing ..... 2. Koloa landing, when they first synced and ported over these were labeled 34, 35.... 46 for all the manually entered dives, even though on the web browser they were properly labeled as dive #1, 2, ..... In the dive number field.

Bug Report - Dive Numbers don't sync between web and Android app correctly

6249072 — Sun, 10 May 2026 05:10:02 GMT

I have a total of 33 dives under my belt. I have had a Garmin MK2 and MK2i for dives 13 and on. I just recently went in and added records of my dives 1-12 to my garmin dive account through the web. They show in the correct order on the garmin connect website. To verify everything was looking correctly I went to check it in the app on my android and those dives are now coming through as dives 34-46 instead of 1-12 on my phone.

Thanks for the post, 6249072 . Can you please post some screenshots of what you're seeing so we can look into this further? Please also confirm what version of the Connect app you're using. ^DK

RE: Data sync with Garmin Dive app (android)

nradov — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 18:13:07 GMT

Most likely the .FIT file on your device is corrupt. There are bugs in the device system software which appear to cause intermittent file corruption. Unfortunately Garmin support isn't very interested in fixing the root causes so we just live with it.

Try syncing over a USB cable with Garmin Express but most likely it still won't work. So you can try to repair it with other software.

Data sync with Garmin Dive app (android)

1535286 — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 02:06:01 GMT

I have a Garmin Descent MK2i and have been using it for sometime now.

There are instances where the dive computer logs the dive, but doesn't sync it with the Garmin Dive app.

Has anyone faced the issue before? What can I do to solve it?

RE: Logging Dives from both Decent Mk3i and X50i

4870762 — Wed, 01 Apr 2026 12:13:00 GMT

Right now, logging dives from both Mk3i and X50i in the Garmin Dive app isn’t handled well—it treats them as separate devices with independent dive counters, not a unified log.

Totals in Garmin Dive

4402754 — Tue, 17 Feb 2026 21:33:28 GMT

When i first open my garmin dive app and got to the "You" page, the app does not show the total dives or the cumulative dive time. If i click the edit option to edit my profile, change something and save, then the totals are shown.

If i pull to refresh the you page the totals do not show either. Only by editing the profile can i make the app display them.

I tried logging out, clearing the app cache and logging back in and the problem is still there.

Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks

I just spoke with support on this issue.

Thought I was going crazy having to manually update dive log number. I have gone from mk2i->mk3i->x50i. There were not any issues when upgrading from mk2i to mk3i because they were primary devices in garmin connect. However, there’s now a few issues with x50i that they are trying to address but it will be an app update and not firmware.

1. x50i keeps track of log increments on the device

2. x50i is not available in garmin connect

3. having mk3i and x50i in dive app, only mk3i is available to set as primary.

Recommendation: Call Support to report this issue and be added to the open case. I was told the more people added to the case would raise the priority for a fix.

i also asked about opening a separate case on being able to set x50i as primary when diving with mk3i as backup computer (so we can decide which device to upload logs from)

anyway, I hope this helped

Garmin - JH — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 19:37:37 GMT

Kristian (d10b43a1aaa1438495b8501828aeaa99), I went ahead and looked at your email to our support office. Because you're using a third-party device, it cannot sync with the Garmin Dive app directly, so the verified steps mentioned in this thread won't apply to you. If you have further questions about this, please wait for support to respond and continue your correspondence with them.

Garmin Connect -> Garmin Diving Sync issue

IdefixRC — Wed, 31 Dec 2025 03:35:31 GMT

Hi there,

I uploaded a few dives via Garnin Connect Web and edited them on the website as needed (e.g. Change the name of the dive, add coordinates etc).

When I check Garmin connect on the phone I can see all the dives listed under activities including the names given to each dive.

Garmin Dive however onoy takes this data partially. While I can see all dives listed, many are missing the name I gave the activity (show default: Dive 23 etc,) and are missing other data such the coordinates entered.

Further, for those with missing data, when I select the dive under activities on the phone it will try and open the dive in Garmin Dive but throws an error message that something went wrong. I assume this is the case due to the data missmatch between the 2.

Is there a way to force Garmin Dive to fully resync all dives from connect?

Thanks

RE: Garmin Connect -> Garmin Diving Sync issue

IdefixRC — Sat, 17 Jan 2026 01:56:08 GMT

Here is an update on the issue.

After a lot of try and error I found out that the Garmin import fuction seems to have an issue with large data sets.

When I import more than 5-6 dives at the same time some of the data or sync between connect and dive seems to time out or the garmin DB simply messed up the import.

Only solution I found:

1) delete the affected dive in garmin dive

2) re-import the dive (max 4 at a time) in connect web

3) garmin dive will now sync these and you can edit the dive

Simple way to figure out which dives are affected: try and edit the dive in garmin dive (you will get an error) or clicknon the dive in connect on your phone to open it up (garmin dive will open telling you the dive is not found)

Hipe this helps someone.
