Every step can be skipped. The first time you sign in, SCUBAzen walks you through five short steps: your name, your certifications, your kit, your units and sizes, and your dive history. Nothing is required. Every answer saves the moment you give it, and **next** moves on whether you answered or not. Setup runs once; afterwards each answer lives in settings or the menu. ## The five steps The progress chip at the top of each step reads "step 1 of 5", "step 2 of 5" and so on. | Step | Page title | What it asks | Where to change it later | | - | - | - | - | | 1 | **welcome to SCUBAzen** | Your name and an optional photo | Settings, **account** ([Your account](/docs/settings/account)) | | 2 | **your certifications** | Your certification cards | Menu, **certifications & insurance**, or Settings, **account**, **certifications & insurance** ([Your certifications and insurance](/docs/certs/wallet)) | | 3 | **my kit** | What you own and what you rent | Settings, **my kit** ([Your kit: own or rent](/docs/gear/kit)) | | 4 | **units & sizes** | Units, your dive count, sizes for rented gear | Settings, **units & sizes** ([Units and sizes](/docs/settings/units-and-sizes)) | | 5 | **your dive history** | A logbook file to import | Settings, **backup & restore**, then **import a logbook** ([Import a logbook](/docs/logbook/import)) | Once you finish setup, it doesn't come back. If you skip a step, you answer it later from the place in the last column, not from setup. ## Step 1: welcome to SCUBAzen Under **about you**, tap **add a photo** to pick a profile photo, and type your name in the **name** field. Your name is printed on the paperwork a dive shop asks you to fill in; the photo is only for your account. Tap **next**. This step has no back button. ## Step 2: your certifications Tap **add certification** to add a card: its name, agency, number, issue date and photos of the front and back. You can add several. The step returns here after each one. When you are done, or if your cards aren't to hand, tap **next**. Insurance is not part of setup. Add it from **certifications & insurance** whenever you like; once a policy is on file, home checks it against your trip dates. See [Add a certification](/docs/certs/certification) and [Add dive insurance](/docs/certs/insurance). ## Step 3: my kit Each piece of gear has an **own** and a **rent** button, grouped under **basics**, **life support**, **exposure protection**, **extras** and **papers & personal**. A few personal items have **bring** instead of **own**. Borrowed gear counts as your own. Your answers fill your [packing list](/docs/trips/packing-list) and the [paperwork](/docs/trips/paperwork) you send a dive shop. The essentials a shop asks about read **needs an answer** until you mark them. You can leave them and come back later. Tap **next**. ## Step 4: units & sizes * **units**: SCUBAzen starts these from your phone's region, so a phone set to a metric country starts on metric. Change any row, or tap **all metric** or **all imperial**. * **dive count**: **total logged dives** is the number your next logged dive counts up from. If you carry a paper logbook, enter its total here. The highest it accepts is 200,000; a higher number stops **next** until you correct it. * **sizes**: only the gear you marked **rent** in step 3. The sizes are printed on your paperwork so a shop can have your rental kit ready. Tap **next**. ## Step 5: your dive history If you logged dives in another app, tap **choose a csv file** to import them; the importer shows you what it found before anything is saved. After the import, tap **continue**. If you have nothing to import, tap **not now**. The **how to export from your dive app** link under the intro opens [Import a logbook](/docs/logbook/import) in your browser. Either way, setup ends and you land on [home](/docs/get-started/home). The full import walkthrough is on [Import a logbook](/docs/logbook/import). ## Going back, and leaving partway * On steps 2 to 5, the back arrow returns to the step before with your answers still on screen. Going back never undoes anything. * If you close the app or sign out partway through, setup picks up at the furthest step you reached the next time you open SCUBAzen or sign in, as long as that is within a day of creating your account. Your answers so far are saved, and the back arrow still walks through the earlier steps. * After that day, the app opens on home instead. Every question from setup is still in the places listed in the table above. * With no connection, your answers save on the phone and sync when you are back online. **next** may take a few seconds while it tries to reach the server, then moves on. ## Related * [Sign in](/docs/get-started/sign-in) * [Home and the menu](/docs/get-started/home) * [Your kit: own or rent](/docs/gear/kit) * [Units and sizes](/docs/settings/units-and-sizes) ## Related topics - [Install SCUBAzen](/docs/get-started/install.md) - [Sign in](/docs/get-started/sign-in.md) - [Add a certification](/docs/certs/certification.md) - [Settings](/docs/settings/index.md) - [SCUBAzen docs](/docs/index.md) This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
