Hey there!
Having just aquired the vivosmart HR, is it possible to use this app there as well?

hi,
actually vivosmart hr is not supported. but you dont really need my app, do you? the vivosmart hr already has a pool swim mode...

That's correct, but it lacks some of the features I find useful (manual lap counting as the automatic count is not very precise and cannot be changed in garmin connect afterwards; no heart rate monitoring, etc), so I thought I'll see how other apps perform. ;-)

i see.
well, sorry, i dont plan to add support for other watches. i have very limited development time, and i myself own a FR230. therefore i want to focus on that.
I wish i had a vivoactive hr! :)

Totally understandable, thanks for the quick answer!

For me it looks good. I hope that I will be able to test it myself in the near future. Of course I will let you know how it went. Keep your fingers crossed :D

I had quite a long break from swimming but I'm back. I was happy to notice it's already a feature "auto-lap". I see that stroke count also works very well. In general, this application works flawlessly durning my last sessions so hats off to you and thank you for you hard work :)
Although I have a few observation.
I noticed that after pressing the stop button (at the end of workout), the time still goes on until I save a session. Unfortunately browsing through menu takes a few seconds which are added to the total result (in sport like swimming those few seconds it's quite a lot ) On the other side, very often after training I'm able only to press only one button ;)
Second thing: Maybe more useful will be to swap "time of the day" with "total time" on the main screen (with summary).
I hope those changes will be useful for other users too.
Greetings

About the first thing: cool, great and very detailed observation. I will look into it.
As for total time: it was there till a couple of weeks. Lot of people were requesting time of day, and I just replaced it by a random field, being it total time. Now clearly I chose the wrong one: several users are requesting total time back. Therefore I will bring it back in the next version. I will delete something else :D
