Is there a way to see a more precise battery level with the Garmin Swim 2 on both the watch and the Garmin Connect App?

I am new to the watch, and as far as I can tell it only shows 20% increments of battery level, so it's very difficult to know how close to empty the watch really is when it's at 1 bar.  And I don't see where the Connect App shows the battery level at all.

I could be missing more precise watch faces or info cards on the app.

Thanks in advance for more info.

    There is no way to be more precise. There are watch faces what show percentage, but they still count by 20% increments only. This is a limitation. Also these 20% increments are not linear, sometimes it jumps very fast, sometimes it camps at 40% seemingly for ever. If you are at 1 bar (20%), you should charge the watch before any GPS or pool swimming activity. Using it as a watch only will be usually enough until the end of the day.

    Thanks for the info.  Obviously more battery charge/drain info would be better, but it's good to know how the device actually works.

    No, the Farmin swim 2 doesn't offer a more precise battery level on either the watch or the Garmin Connect app.
