OSTC+ (not plus) - not connected

Good evening,
recently changed from heinrichsweikamp OSTC plus to OSTC+. This is the new hardware version with the buttons recessed in the housing. Unfortunately, I can't get it to import into the iOS app. The Mac version of MacDive can import the dives from the new hardware with the same settings (OSTC 2). Under iOS I do not get a connection. The synchronization with the old computer still works under iOS. I have manually removed the computer and added it again. Furthermore, the import is only possible with the old OSTC plus.
Hardware:
iPhone XS with OS 14.0, OSTC+ with firmware 3.19 and 3.20.

Answer from Heinrichsweihkamp:
The OSTC got new Bluetooth chips some time ago, because the old ones were no longer available (chip crisis says hello). When using Bluetooth 4.0 (iOS), the apps must be adapted to the new chip.
I think they can integrate it quickly though. We provide all the necessary information for this.

@nick: The info for supporting the new U-Blox bluetooth chip in the OSTC is available here:
https://github.com/libdivecomputer/libd ... hs-weikamp
It's mainly a matter of adding the new service and Rx/Tx characteristics UUIDS.

Thank you TNT.
After 3 month some little hope not be forced to switch to another app.

Will you continue to support OSTC dive computers or is it time to change to another iOS application?

MacDive advertises support for OSTC dive computers. I have been waiting for months for the 2022 dive computers to be supported. Unfortunately, there has been no response to my requests so far. Now I have switched to Dive Log. I understand that not everything can be implemented immediately. But the fact that there has been no answer for months while a feature is actively advertised that is not (any longer) given is simply unprofessional.
