This was my first experience with open water swimming app. I like it very much. I found it easy to operate and what is the most important for me accurate distance measurement! Thank you.

Since garmin doesn't natively support open water swimming registration on my watch (FR 645) , this is my goto app when open water swimming since 2years , most of the time the registration and tracking in spot on ... The thing that I would like to see in the main screen tho would be a counter with how many satellites It has locked..so I can adjust on to, before and during the workout ...so I(we) can adjust pure swimming position (form) to have a better lockon

This app is great especially for being free. If the GPS is not registering, I have found doing a swim stroke that allows my hands to be outside the water to be helpful (such as front crawl). In areas with bad GPS (such as more remote locations) I found that repeated visits of the same location give better results, keeping your phone nearby at the start, and swimming in a relatively straight line when possible all help the data collection. Overall I am really happy it is possible to collect data on an open water swim with this app, as it would otherwise be impossible with my watch model. Thank you!

Nutze die App nur für Freiwasserschwimmen. GPS/Aufzeichnung der Strecke während des Schwimmens klappt nicht zufriedenstellend. Halte ich die Uhr aus dem Wasser (kurzer Stop an einer Boje im See), wird die Distanz gemessen.

This is generally pretty accurate distance wise in my experience. The main issue is that it is difficult to pause the session quickly as you need to unlock the screen first the navigate to pause.

Prima volta che uso una app per nuoto in acque libere. Mi piace. Credo che non sia proprio precisissimo ma aspetto di nuotare con qualcuno che abbia un device più evoluto del mio vivoactive hr per capire quale sia l'effettiva differenza...

I downloaded this app to swim Lake Geneva. I was worried it might not be accurate due to some of the comments. However I found it easy to download, use and accurate. I was swimming with somebody who was using a watch that was known to be accurate, so it was easy for me to cross reference.

I am using this on an FR245M. I am new to swimming but an avid runner. I like the APP. Well done. I am struggling with something a little silly I'm sure. It feels like too many buttons to end the swim so my swim ends up including the dock, the walk to get my towel... Easy enough to trim off in Connect, but frustrating to keep forgetting (2 for 2). I guess you have to unlock, then say "yes" to the intention of unlocking, then hit stop for the workout. The running and strength apps on the FR245M are 1 button to stop the workout. and a second to save. This does occasionally cause a premature stop of the workout, but I'm not sure that is likely when swimming (again I am a novice with swimming). Other than that, I like this app. I will look around a bit for more info on the screen navigation. Maybe there is an easier way that I am missing.

Pretty impressive. Use it for open water swimming. Straight distance measured with GPS 420m and swimming distance with the app 560m. Considering not swimming on straight line and inaccuracies due to loss the GPS signal under water, very accurate!!

No open water app will be 100% accurate. This has on and off days depending on coverage so i can't complain.

Seemed OK, but instead of 1500m, only registered 500m?! Slightly frustrating. Map was also all over the place. Not the most user friendly system, but has potential.

Very correct with my Venu 2. I have done 5.2 km freestyle swim across lake Balaton, and it measured 5.3 km, with my zigzag movement, it seems reasonable accurate. It was a long shot to use Venu 2 for outdoor swim, but works alright. Thanks for the app!

Endlich mal eine App die auch im Freiwasser funktioniert. Habe in den letzten Wochen viele verschiedene Apps für Schwimmen und Triathlon probiert. Immer war das Signal weg und ich habe keine Distanz bekommen. Bis jetzt bin ich voll begeistert!

Good app but there is a bug with the records. When the app measure 110m, the record is only 45. Another example, when I did 45m, the record was 24m. FENIX 5 SAPPHIRE APAC 20.0 Application : Open water.

Feedback for the Beta version , swimming 750m circuit Recorded as 250m and the GPS was a straight line at a diagonal and back

Sehr gute App. Das richtige Ding für alle Freiwasserschwimmer:innen :). Großes Dankeschön an den Entwickler. Die App funktioniert auf FR235 und FR245 tadellos.

내가 사용해본 수영앱중 단연최고의 앱~!! 처음 설정잡을때 조금 헷갈려서 고생했는데 그뒤로는 정말편하고 좋아요.

Just wrote a review asking for help getting miles to km. Plus saying it was great but occasionally the GPS glitches and shows me shooting off onto land and then back. ( My strava also does this but less frequently). My advice is to read the advice section from the developer and FAQs as this solved both my issues. Thank you and now I look forward to my 6km swim in 2 days knowing I will have a good idea of my distance

Pretty impressed with this app. Did 3 laps of a a 900m loop and it worked it out at 3000m on my vivoactive 4 which isn't far off!

Bad measurement of the distance. Even if the watch is set in meters, it seems that distance in open water is in feet. Before purchasing the full version I would like to Jon that the developers specify if it’s a problem only if the beta release. Please answer me
