Metre Lengths for Swimming Pool

Product Information

I generally swimming something like a 20 lap series of 14 front-crawl laps and then 6 ***-stroke laps three or four times. The distance measured when I pause to rest between series is usually off by about 50 yards, which isn't a big deal. The main annoyance is that sometimes I'll forget which lap I'm on and have to look at the watch. My Vivoactive 3 was always able to correctly count which lap I'm on unless I did something weird with my left (watch-wearing) hand during a lap.

It’s small. The Inspire 3 is basically the size of a bracelet (and makes my Garmin Fenix look laughably huge in comparison), which means it has a limited square footage for screen, making it difficult to see and read for people with not-awesome eyesight or when your swim goggles get all steamy and fogged up. Some of these Fitbit devices offer some cool and nice smart features, others don’t, and then some offer something in between. You’re going to have to decide if this is important to you and whether or not it’s something you want on your fitbit device.

To explain this in a no scientific term is that when you submerge the watch under water and hold it still, its currently under pressure. If you thrash the watch around under water it is now under dynamic pressure. How accurate is the swim lap counter? Does it provide you with precise information about the number of laps taken? Accuracy is one of the primary things to watch out for when buying any lap counter.

Now that we’ve cleared that out of the way, I think it’s important to ask ourselves the question of where this confusion comes from? And of course, the Apple Watch—being a smartwatch and all—has a metric butt-ton of features that you can use on dry land as well. ✅ PROS Have you used the SportCount LapCounter?
