S3:E07 | BEST SCUBA DIVING APP EVER possibly just for this one reason | Tips, & Diver Résumé | The Scuba Diving Podcast with Buddy creator Alexis Jabbour

In this showcase series of the best scuba diving app on the market today, we discuss how divers can setup a profile, and (finally) get tipped! This interview takes place on the beaches of Oahu, Hawaii, with Guest Alexis Jabbour. She’s the mastermind behind the Buddy App, now over 2.5 years in the making! With the Summer 2023 launch happening as we speak, Buddy is making waves throughout the industry as a disruptive platform that’s quickly changing the landscape for divers, freedivers, and snorkelers.

With the tipping feature built right into the Buddy Profile, we no longer have to remember our cash, find an ATM, or worse… forget and never see the divemasters or boat crew again. 

Not only can dives be validated and buddies be added to dive that show up in the dive log, it’s an easy way to find and tip those who deserve it, even after-the-fact!

The Buddy Dive Log app has the best of all the agencies like PADI, SSI, NAUI, and goes well beyond the capabilities of Manufacturer apps like Garmin, Suunto, Apple Watch and many others. It combines all the features into one, without those barriers that divide the already-small industry even smaller. Connecting buddies of ALL agencies is the skeleton key of all future growth in this watery world. Making sure hardworking scuba instructors, boat hands, and divemasters get paid is equally important. This app, yet again, fixes a lingering rankle within the dive industry.

Further, Alexis talks about the Charter and Dive shops features that allow those QR codes to be posted for those who pool their tips.

It’s clean, works smoothly, easy to use, and is the most comprehensive diver app YET. It got me excited enough to continue interviewing and discussing this incredible new tool, and making it part of our series here on The Scuba Diving Channel.

Just a reminder, it’s even set up for those that aren’t certified yet! So literally anyone can download this app (it’s free).
