v3.0-upd.1

v3.0-upd.1: fix issue. data needed for stroke count analysis was not properly written in fit file. otherwise same functionality as 3.0
v3.0:

Initial support stroke count (feature as beta, waiting for your feedback).

several changes in memory managment and process execution for better performance and stability.

do you want to colaborate? do you have a cool swimming technique (my goal is to properly detect strokes for each style)? then send me a FIT file containing all or some of the swimming styles. if each style is grouped in just one interval, it would be awesome.

coming soon:

- discard/resume/save menu on exit button

- summary window when paused (pool length, distance, ...)

later:

- automatic pause recognition

here is one of the good ones:

Yes, the top right shows 0 yards, whch is what shows in the acivity summary. Also at the bottom left under the stats tab it show as 0.
This also shows zero in my weekly/monthly totals.

yes, developer do not have access to those fields. we can just create additional fields.
but still you can open the activity in garmin connect in your pc, and edit the distance. this way, the distance will be taken into account in the monthly/weekly totals. that is what i do.

thanks, that makes sense now.

Unfortunately since update to version 3.0 I can't initiate activity. When I press start button, timer doesn't work and laps aren't recognized. Despite this, activitiy appears on Garmin Connect (only with recorded time).
Is there a chance to fix it?

hi,
this has not happened to me. i cannot figure out the reason why this is happening.
somebody contacted me yesterday via email with the same problem. for him, Restarting the watch fixed the issue.
maybe you could try to help me figure out the reason. it would be great if you could attach the files in folder apps/logs from your garmin.

v3.2

v3.2: display summary window when paused.

Awesome app. That's I was looking for.
One more thing that could be added is "skip lap". For example(pool lenght is 50m): I started new lap and at the midle of pool app increased distanse to 50m(because I have to do some extra moves) but I'm still swim this lap. In this case it will count two pool length instead of one. It would be cool to press button and it will undo this fake lap. This elapsed time will returned to my current lap and I can be finished as usual.
I'm not sure if my explanation is well, so please let me know if some additional data is needed.
Thanks in advance.
