ClosedDo I have to be a good swimmer to track my swims with my Fitbit device?

Your Fitbit device records your swims even if you're a novice swimmer, meaning you tin can swim about 6 to 12 lengths of the pool without stopping to rest. If you lot're unable to swim this distance, you may notice inconsistencies in your swim data including some lengths not counted. As your swimming ability improves, you lot'll likely find fewer inconsistencies in your data.

ClosedWhy does my Fitbit swim data seem wrong?

Inconsistencies in your swim data may exist caused by whatsoever of the following:

  • You lot completed only a few laps
  • Yous stopped to residue multiple times or in the middle of the puddle
  • You stopped to residue for longer than 60 seconds subsequently completing a pool length
  • Yous changed your stroke type midway through a length
  • You swam with a kickboard or without using your arms
  • You swam less than the minimum duration needed for your swim to be automatically recognized
