Diving Totals with X50i and Mk3i as backup

cermo — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 04:27:27 GMT

Hello community,

recently I found out that my Dive totals (nr of dives and total time) on Garmin Dive app is different then the actual numbers. I found out that since I'm using the X50i as my primary computer with all the T2 transmitters connected as My tanks for the consumption rates and data (on mk3i they are as Another Divers transmitters) my dive totals didn't match. When I opened the web platform of Garmin Connect I found out that all the dives that I kept logged from X50i (I deleted the duplicates downloaded from Mk3i) the number of dives started from 1 (even when on the phone they continued in the number of dives sequence) so the total nr. of dives and total diving time was wrong. When I changed all the nr of dives on the web within each dive activity the Totals are now right. I think it's because X50i cannot be selected as primary wearable and only as Gear for diving. So the phone Garmin Dive app takes "two same dive activities" as the same dive with the same dive number but the totals are calculated from the web platform where the dive numbers are different for each device with which it was uploaded (eg. dive 216 with Mk3i, dive 3 with X50i, dive 217 - Mk3i, dive 4 - X50i would shown in the sequence on the web). I like to have X50i as a primary computer and so far this is the only way that I know to have totals in your dive app correct. Do you know any better way to have the numbers correct without syncing only Mk3i dives (without the consumption rates) ????

cermo 4dmin This is something that our internal team is tracking as an experience ticket. This is currently working as expected/designed if you are utilizing multiple dive devices. I have added you both to this ticket for tracking this experience/request. **

Same issue here. Brand new Garmin Descent G1. Very odd.

I have the same problem. Since I started using the Garmin X50i, the dive numbers on the dive computer, in the Garmin Dive app, and on the Connect website have been completely inconsistent. And *none* of them are correct. When I try to correct them, the right numbers don't sync. In some cases, I have three dives with the same dive number in the app.

I've also been getting "This Descent G1 is associated with another device” notifications. Comes up every 12 hours. Very irritating. It's been suggested that I stop all Connect notifications, but that doesn't fix the problem.

Just emailed you the requested info. I am not sending you my dive logs. I see no reason for you to have them. This is a login/connect issue, not a sync or log issue.

I’m also getting the same error. The dive app updated a few weeks ago and has had the error ever since. Very annoying hopefully there is a bug fix soon.

“This Descent G1 is associated with another device” when trying to re-add it to the Dive app.

The same thing is happening with my Descent G1. It says that if I now connect it (technically reconnect), it will delete all previous device data. Has anyone had success in troubleshooting this issue?

You need to have Garmin Dive installed and running on your mobile.

My Garmin Descent Mk3i does not automatically sync so when I go into Connect to see my data it says not enough data and I have to sync.

Question for garmin mk3i (iPhone) users

5049597 — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 10:49:25 GMT

Hey folks,

I currently run an AWU2 and love it, I’ve run AW’s daily since year dot and I find it perfect for my recreational diving so far.

I am however torn and have been toying with the idea of AI so looking at the mk3i (51mm) and happy with all the activity features etc. the battery life is also a big draw.

But trawling through all the reviews and videos it’s hard to see how it performs as an actual smart watch…

So existing users, how are the notifications? Can you interact with them, read and reply to texts, iMessages and WhatsApp etc?

Any other thoughts on the mk3i v the AWU2 that aren’t dive related?

Thanks all.

Im using Fenix Watches since the Fenix 1.
I always eyed on the Apple Watch because of the beautiful displays. Since Epix Gen 2 days, that is gone.
To be honest, i did install the WhatsApp App on my Fenix 8 just to uninstall it a few hours later, i dont use it. Me for myself dont miss any smart functions on the watch. I can read notifications, check the calender and decide if its worth to get the phone out.
My home automation is done via Home Assistant wich i can control with an ConnectIQ App. Music from Spotify is working fine. For Garmin pay i use VIMpay.

I enjoy all the data the watch is tracking. I dont use Apple Health but Garmin Connect to store all health related data (Watch day 2 day data, Index S2 scale, Index BPM).

If you rely on a lot off different apps wich you want to use with the watch, you wont get lucky with a Garmin and iOS. Apple is crippling the functionallity as far as EU fines let them do it.

I would miss the Battery life time and the round display more than the Apple Watch has to offer me.

You can read messages but cannot reply, it is Apple iOS limitation.

Battery: my MK3i works at least 10 - 11 days on one charge with every day, one hour workout with GPS and music played from the watch. In pure smartwatch mode it would work up to 20 days.

Regarding AI, could you say what do you understand under this term, in MK3i it means air integration not artificial intelligence.

Regards.

Garmin 67w camera update issue ios

Hi there been having issues doing updates on the camera from the drive app keeps failing to send them from the phone to the camera I’ve tried everything even reported to garmin any help would be awesome

Dive computer stopped working

4949574 — Wed, 24 Dec 2025 05:51:30 GMT

On a fenix 8 43mm, everything seemed fine until now, finally got to try the dive function.

first dive was fine, everyone worked as expected.

1h surface, second dive. After less than 5 minutes, I felt a vibration on my wrist, briefly saw a “end dive” sign, then back to the dive screen, but depth stuck at 5 meters, dive time still running but all other options frozen

now been out of the water for another hour, impossible to quit the dive screen.

Not sure if my fenix has a build problem ?

RE: Dive computer stopped working

4949574 — Thu, 29 Jan 2026 09:36:35 GMT

to give a follow up on this case, yes the dive sensor was dead, Garmin had to replace the watch, hopefully the new one didn't have the problem so I'm happy now.
