For me on mobile I get the dive site name. So "Blue Corner", "Turtle Beach", 
etc. Don't you get those? It's a bit hard to tell from your description.

As I said in my email yesterday, right now edit only works for buddy, dive 
master and suit.

I don't actually know how to handle dive site name edit on mobile. I remember 
the nightmarish back and forth with the dive site name on the desktop. I hope 
we aren't trying to implement the same complexity on the mobile app. But then 
again, I bet the dive site fans will want the whole nine yards on their phone 
as well... my take would be that all you can do is change the name which 
creates a new dive_site with the same other meta information and that new 
name... but I haven't even begun to consider what that means on the 
implementation side. I continue to just hate the whole dive site mess (but 
understand that this is a major feature for some and the only reason worth 
living).
