Auto Rest function for swimming pool

Hi , i was happy with that function on my F7 pro, so far i still using it in my F8.

The issue with F7 pro was its take couple of sec (5 to 8 sec for me) to detect you stop, so your final lap time is impacted. but i was fine with that at the end

On F8 , seems they improve the detection time to be I guess around 3 sec or less, but maybe too fast now!!!

as almost each time I turn, the auto pause is activated even if I'm swimming, so each turn I'm losing 3 to 5 seconds that impact a lot my final lap time. 

I  got better results to move first out of water, after turn, the arm I'm wearing my watch, but this is still troublesome ....

  • I quickly stopped using auto rest when pool swimming, unless I’m not bothered about accurate set times, for those same reasons. I’m not sure what can be done as we all move differently when swimming. A bit like the OHR, a fix for some will likely negatively impact others. A workaround to avoid having to remember to enable/disable auto rest is to create a separate Pool Swim activity and have one with it enabled and the other not.
