Swimming: During swims I get a huge peak in the detected strokes/stroke rate at each lap/intervall.

During swims I get a huge peak in the detected strokes/stroke rate at each lap/intervall.

I think or more guess this is due to the watch buzzing to signal me the intervall (in my case 100m) is finished) and the buzzing is counted as multiple strokes.? Anyone has the same phenomenon? Some way to 'switch it off' without actually disabling the intervall notification?

Good I am not the only one

I have checked - this issue occurred exactly at the 30^th of May this year. Before that (even on the 29th) I only had very small (but still noticeable) peaks. After that always these huge spikes

The 15.19 update was around that time - so maybe I updated at the 29th or early on the 30th

It is a known bug, also happens in other types of activities where a stroke rate is measured, such as rowing. See the 955 series forum,

In my experience it is not related to the buzzing, still happens when I turn vibration off.
