Fenix 7 swimming. Has anyone else had any issues with pool swimming with the fenix 7? I just swam for 40 mins and I logged hr OK but no distance! Pool length was set to 25m.
On default settings I think.

It's OK to complain about the swim distance problem that Garmin acknowledges they are working on, but to say it is a bad watch and that Garmin is going downhill is ridiculous. It is an amazing watch…
I swam again later and the watch correctly recorded the distance I swam (800 yards). I did a soft reset before I began swimming. Additionally, I went into my Apps in Garmin Connect and removed the swimming App, then reinstalled it. I have no idea if that helped or not. I have used the Garmin HR Sapphire 3, Garmin 5X Plus, Garmin 6X pro Solar and now the 7X Solar Sapphire. this is the first time I have had this problem. I have learned to hold on to my previous Fenix so that when I send in my new Fenix, I'll have something in the meantime. The fenix is not just a tool. It is a companion!
Today I tried using Pool Swim and I had the same problem. Garmin - Chris is there any solution? or I should try using my warranty?
Hi Chris. I am willing to send info but I can't workout how to send you a private message. Highlighting your name isn't working
If you hover over his name, a menu should appear.
Same issue on my new 7x saphire solar: swim pool workd fine for 1 week. Today suddenly without any change of any setting, no pool distance detectet during my 1hour swim session. Manuel Drill workd, but any automatic detection returned 0 meters. I can provide link to my recordet acrtivities if you want?
Maybe one difference to the last swim where distance worked: Battery is at 10%...maybe thats the only difference i can notice.
Will load the watch today evening, and restart it, i hope that will solve that issue.
Also no swimming distance. And music quility is crap. Concedering a refund or replacement
