WIFI to send dives from MacDive to Dive Log
I used to put my Dives from MacDive onto my iPhone and iPad via Wifi. IS it not available now?

Yes, it is still there, in exactly the same place it always was.
The cloud sync via Dropbox to MacDive for iPhone is a lot easier, and happens automatically. However compatibility with Dive Log via WiFi remains.
Thanks

WiFi sync does not work anymore. At least, I cannot make it happen.
Last time 10 months ago worked just fine.
Dive Log in iOS will not enable sync.
What to do?

I would try restarting your phone / router / computer. Usually this is just Apple Network issues.

I did restart my mac and iPad, but I am using a Hotel´s unprotected WiFi network in Singapore. Could it be the reason?

Possibly, they tend to have more restricted firewalls than your average home network.

Ok, I´ll try again at home, in a few days...
Re: WIFI to send dives from MacDive to Dive Log
The reason for sync problem seems to be macOS dark mode. MacDive does not fully support dark mode, as when trying to sync, the whole sync window is all white, and the "sync button" invisible. Normal mode, no problem.
...but still, the sync does not completely merge info, but instead creates double of each dive, one of which only contains the info written on iPad, while the other copy contains merged info.
Will you be able to fix this in future updates?
