Divesoft dive log: Freedom and Liberty dives, open circuit and rebreather

Updated October 19, 2026

BubbleJournal downloads from Divesoft's Freedom and Liberty over Bluetooth and reads their log files, rebreather dives included, so they can sit beside the dives from any other computer you have dived with.

Over Bluetooth, from the app

The app is coming soon to the App Store and Google Play. Until then, bring the dives in from a file.

Turn on the computer's Bluetooth from its menu, tap Download dives in the app and choose it.

• Divesoft Freedom
• Divesoft Liberty

From a file

Save the dives from Divesoft's software, then choose the files on the Import page, many at once or as a zip.

• The log files from the computer: .dlf

What comes across

• The depth profile and water temperature
• Gases, with oxygen and helium, and the switches between them
• The computer's own NDL and stops, and CNS
• On a rebreather: the setpoint, and the loop oxygen from the sensors

Every file you import is kept exactly as uploaded, so nothing is lost if BubbleJournal learns to read more of it later.

What doesn't

• A log file doesn't say whether a Freedom or a Liberty made it, so dives imported from files show the computer as Divesoft.

Its decompression model

Divesoft computers use Bühlmann ZHL-16C with gradient factors you choose. Where the file holds it, the computer's own NDL comes across with each dive. BubbleJournal also works the NDL and tissue loading out again with one model, Bühlmann ZHL-16C, so dives from any computer can be compared: why your computer and your logbook disagree.

What the numbers mean

• Air consumption (SAC rate): how to work it out and use it
• No-decompression limit (NDL): what it is and why it changes
• Tissue loading: what the percentage means and how it falls
• How to read a dive profile
