As soon as it goes below a certain depth, the watch is locked to use the "official garmin diving app". This is explained to prevent entering in any other app in the middle of a dive.

I feel that the apple watch will be doing something similar (if only to lock the touchscreen under the water).




I was under the impression that this was not the case, since the pressure and other information seems to be available on their SDK docuementation

See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coremotion/cmwater...

If this was locked to use only by the Oceanic app this wouldn't be such a big deal to me at least.
