Charge 5 - swim function stops during swimming

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I have a Charge 5 and I normally swim 80 laps. Lately the Charge 5 stops while swimming in the middle of a lap. I am especially worried as - apart from not counting the laps right - it then also releases the water lock and that might affect my fitbit. Any help?

It won't hurt your watch if the water lok turns off. 

The water lok just shuts down the heart monitor because Fit Bit says it is not accurate when wet.

My Charge 5 is not always accurate in the lap count. I can tell because I always swim an even number of laps but sometimes it registers an odd number.

Not the best swimmer's fitness watch.

Good to know that I don´t have to worry about this, but still it makes no sense that the Charge 5 suddenly decides that I have swam enough. It stops the exercice sometimes at 10 min, 30 min,.. in the middle of a lap without particular reason.
