Feature Request: Camera & Photo

This case is solid, I feel very comfortable putting my phone in the case, but I'm sorry I don't need a separate vacuum tool. I use this in Bonaire and it's not safe to leave anything in the car when you're going to dive which means I have to put my phone in a pocket and leave it there until I'm done diving or risk to leave a vacuum tool. in the truck. This is a great product, I trust that, but I would love to be able to create a vacuum as a built in part of the case or as a tool that would be…

Great case, software nightmare

Great case, fits my iPhone 11 Pro easily, but the Kraken app is a different story. In zoom mode, the buttons don't work most of the time and the application often gets stuck. This app is in dire need of an update from a real programmer. Alternatively, if you need an app that works with this case, install the Deep Photo app, it works. PERFECT with a suitcase. If you want more advanced tools, however, you'll need to purchase a subscription, but the basic features without paying are good enough…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • No

Good idea, bad execution.

(1) Button labels are stickers that peeled off after the second dive. (2) The new Kraken app doesn't read the depth sensor, so you're wasting your money on a more expensive model. (3) The keys are jerky. Sometimes works, others don't. (4) About 1/3 of the time Bluetooth was turned off during a dive. (5) Really need a way to dim/turn off the phone screen before/after diving. You want to charge the case in a dry place, but then you burn the battery before diving. A phone load didn't make it…

Several buttons stopped working

I thought it was great when it worked but it didn't last long. I rinsed and soaked in fresh water after every dive. I always dried the case before opening it. Unfortunately after only 2 dives the labels on the buttons started to peel off. After 10 dives, on multiple dives, the box disconnected from the phone mid-dive. After about 20 dives, none of the buttons on the back of the case worked anymore. I've done over 30 box dives, but the last 10-15 dives I could only use for photography. I…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not the best

Works exactly as I had hoped.

It was time to get another underwater camera, so I started looking into it. What attracted me to this product was its versatility. With this phone case, my camera gets better every time I upgrade my phone. I also liked that the case displays information about your dive so you don't have to take your eyes off your subject or the camera. At first I was a little worried about the possibility of flooding the case and damaging the phone and case. I did some test dives with an old iPhone6. The box…

  • practical item

  • no performance

It works well but consumes the battery

The screen is on all the time and as far as I know there is no way to dim the screen to save battery. It is best to install the phone in the Kraken in an air-conditioned room to minimize humidity inside the case during the dive; The instructions also say to put the phone in, deflate and wait a while to make sure the vacuum holds. If you do this, the travel time before entering the water can be long and the phone battery can be very drained or drained. So run some tests with your phone in the…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Speed
