This is really cool - I especially like the beautiful rendering of the dive profile :-)

I'll have to admit that the amount of activity on Subsurface-mobile
makes me smile. I really hoped that a few people here would get
into the idea of making a mobile app happen and would collaborate.
We need more people working on our UIs (both DT and mobile).

I'll admit that I'm still in the "struggling" phase. But I'm sure I'll get
the hang of it.

Right now I'm making fast progress on allowing us to drop the 
companion apps and the web service. Instead of telling people 
to collect GPS fixes on their phone, pushing them to a server, 
downloading them from the server to the desktop and then merging
 them there, we'll simply tell people to use Subsurface-mobile on 
their phone. They can turn on the location server and after a day 
of diving they open their cloud storage on their mobile device 
(hopefully download their dives on their mobile device - or if they
have dive computers we can't support on their phone, do the
download on the computer), trigger the location merge and then 
save back their updated data to the cloud storage.

Much simpler, one fewer account needed, etc. AND I get to retire 
the python code running on my server :-)
