Import a UDDF file into your dive log
UDDF, the Universal Dive Data Format, is the open XML standard for dive logs. It carries the whole dive: every depth sample, temperature, gas mixes, cylinders, sites, buddies and notes. It is the format to ask for whenever you want to leave somewhere, because nearly every serious dive log can write it and none of them own it.
Import a UDDF file into SeaLog
Get the file onto your phone. AirDrop, iCloud Drive or email all work, anything that puts it in the iOS Files app.
In SeaLog, tap the plus button, then Import dives, then UDDF file.
Pick the file. Dives arrive with everything the format carries, and anything already in your logbook is skipped rather than duplicated.

Questions
Does UDDF keep the depth profile?
Yes, and that is the whole point of using it. A CSV gives you one row per dive. UDDF gives you the curve, which is what makes a dive worth looking at again.
Can I export back out to UDDF?
Any time. SeaLog exports your whole logbook to UDDF, CSV or PDF, without a subscription and without asking why. A logbook you cannot take away is not yours.
Other formats
One logbook, every format
SeaLog imports what you have and exports what you want, without a subscription standing in the way.
