When the Apple Watch Ultra was first announced in September 2022, much was made of its adventuring capabilities. The best Apple Watch yet not only contained all the great swimming, cycling, and running metrics of its predecessors, but it could help you explore mountains at altitude and even under the sea, at a depth of 40 meters (130 feet).
With Apple’s own Depth app, the Apple Watch Ultra and Apple Watch Ultra 2 can record basic dive information such as current depth, maximum depth of your dive so far, time, and water temperature. With the Oceanic Plus app, the watch transforms into a more comprehensive working dive computer, able to display decompression information and more sophisticated directional information.
