Why the *** does Garmin not credit intensity minutes for swimming? Even with Hrm swim

Likely because your heart rate is not getting high enough. Check your HR zones.

Not the case .. it dosnt even count with higher heart rate .. but the activity gives credits for restitution.. its not new .. have always been like that . Hr zones are correct

What data you have in this activity statistics?

In my opinion @philipshambrook is right, intensity is to low and your heart rate is to low.

Show us heart rate zones split for this activity.

For me almost all of your activity heart rate would be in Zone1.

Today i set my maximum heart rate on 120 for swim activity .. no count .zones are set for 120 ( just to see if i had any difference)simple Dosnt count for pool swim .. but then again .. todays gym work gave 78 minutes for a 2 hour workout with a average hr on 118 .. but think i will upgrade to a HRM - Pro .. have your guess got activity minutes on a pool swim or are you just guessing

But it gives time for restitution..

I get intensity minutes with to without a strap so perhaps try using the wrist heart rate. I do not have a HRM-Swim. I have HRM-Pro+ but not sure that would make a difference.
