Thinking specifically of scuba diving. It requires a ton of equipment and training and can still be dangerous. In movies there’s always some kind of little gadget that allows people to breathe underwater without all that equipment. Why can’t we build a simple mouth piece with an oxygen canister attached that we could carry around and breathe into when we need?

Scuba can be very hazardous if you don’t know why you are doing. That’s why it has so many levels of training.
As far as the tech is concerned there is no better way. Only other option than the tank attached is to separate the oxygen from the hydrogen in the water but that takes so much energy it would never work.
