Howdy folks... I'm a novice swimmer and this morning I swam laps for 800m ... yet my 935 is telling me that I swam 1100m. Reading the forums, I see that there's a bunch of suggestions listing all the "rules" about how you're supposed to swim in order to get the laps to be counted properly. I'm flat out just keeping my head above water... changing my swimming style to make it more convenient for my watch is ridiculous.
As it stands now, I honestly have no clue about whether I'm getting better because my watch is a random number generator in terms of distance. Am I better to use the Open Water Swimming activity and rely on the GPS?
FWIW, my wife swam beside me the whole way and her Apple watch recorded the times and distance perfectly. Frustrating.
