Swim Lap distance not accurate

Pool length is set correctly but the distance tracked at the end of the workout is way off. The time tracked was correct as well.

Yes. It is. It's rather poor tracker for swimming.

Didn’t have any issues with my Charge 5. Bummer!

@Kugs my Charge 6 underestimates my swim distance my a lot. One time (my last swim) it was only 1 length difference. Every other swim session was always several lengths short. It doesn't help there is no lap breakdown to see when things went wrong. This isn't swimmers wearable.

Yeah it's a little frustrating,  @Kugs. This morning's plan was to swim 40 lengths, I did 42 figuring that if the Charge 6 short-changed me a bit, I'd still have 1 km total  but it only counted...39!   Had the same result last week so it seems to be consistent but there's no way to calibrate the watch to make it more accurate..
