In the swimming pool it counts only time and calories but not distance!!!

While swimming it didn't count the distance only time and calories si I've stopped it and started again and it functioned but how do I solve for the future?

In my case, the same thing, when you make a pause in training it stops counting the distance

It seems to be a common issue.

A bug like this makes the watch unusefull for swimming.

After I experienced this bug I disabled automatic software updates.

I think this seems to be a problem with the algorithm

I noticed that after the restore to inital settings with latest software version (20.32) it over estimates laps.

With previous software always under estimated.

This probably deals with the way I swim but also with the algorithm.

So now I have to manually stop the session with the lap button, do the already counted laps, then start the session again.

The worst thing are the impacts on personal records that I have to manually reject in the Connect app after sync.
