SeaLife launches Android app for SportDiver housing

SeaLife launched an Android app for the SportDiver Smartphone housing. The SeaLife SportDiver is a compact, lightweight underwater housing fitting most Android smartphones and Apple phones from iPhone 7 and up. The Android and iOS apps work with the current OS and the previous version, e.g. the Android app presently works with Android 11 and 10.

The SeaLife SportDiver, for both Android and iOS, lets the user switch between photo and video mode. The SportDiver app utilizes the native phone camera technology, plus offering a power-save mode that temporarily turns the phone’s camera off and dims the display; a touch to any button wakes it up immediately. The App Playback mode shows full-size photos and videos with a vertical thumbnail strip to easily locate your images. Videos start playing automatically when selected. All files are also saved to the phone’s camera roll. The SportDiver housing automatically connects to your phone and the SportDiver app using Bluetooth Low Energy wireless technology. No cables or buttons touch the phone and the housing offers ultra-low power consumption which is powered by two AAA batteries that last over 50 hours of continuous use.

The SportDiver ergonomic design is easy to hold and use, featuring a large shutter lever and rear control buttons for easy operation, even with dive gloves. Snorkelers and Divers can get more creative with their photos or video shot by using advanced camera settings. Adjust Zoom, control exposure, Auto/Manual Focus, White Balance, Lens selection, RAW+JPEG mode, and many more settings depending on your phone model.
