Since my previous suggestion were well received I thought some more about other features I might recommend.

1) Default cylinder - at the moment you can select a default cylinder. This is useful to a point. Once you start diving with two cylinders like for example main tank and a stage or pony it would be good to be able to set second default cylinder. So immediately on adding new dive it reads dive computer date and assigns it into cylinders. On a dive computer which takes multiple cylinders and gas mixes you can set multiple cylinders as 1,2,3,4,5 and so on. If you could also have default cylinders in the application then it would be helpful. I see this feature as two stage selection: firstly you select number of cylinders, then order them as you want and set defaults for each place.

2) Default weights - since there is an option of selecting what weights you carry why not an option of setting default weights? This is likely to be in two stages again: firstly setting number of separate weight placements (weights in 1,2,3,4 places) secondly setting kg and locations (ankle, belt, tank, integrated, etc.)

3) Empty space on the profile graph - when dive profile is charted some space is left unused on the right hand side. This space varies with dives. On shorter dives over 50% of the graph area is unused on longer dives about 15%. It would look better if only say 3% of the available area was left empty.

4) Dives which were manually added have "unknown divecomputer" as computer name. As far as I know this can only be edited in xml file directly. It would be useful to have the ability to name it and also to change it in dives already added.

5) Divelogs upload of modified dives - I upload my dives onto divelogs. Sometimes however I make modification to notes after I uploaded them. It would be good if I could then upload them again from Subsurface and changes would be uploaded. I guess this has more to do with how the interface of the website is set up rather then the app but I thought I mention this as well.

6) List of tags in preferences - I believe it would be useful to see list of all available/added tags and add/modify/delete them in preferences. If tag has no dives associated it can be deleted without question if it has question would pop up saying that tag has associated dives and will be removed from those dives when deleted. If tag is renamed all instances of such tag would have newly renamed tag instead of the old one.

7) Tags in statistics - this follows on from the above improvement. All tags used should have number associated with them showing number of dives with this tag. The best place for this would be as part of stats tab I think.

Hope this helps
