Are their any plans to improve the swim tracking on the band itself? Because it is massively lacking in capability. I used to have a Samsung Fit and it sadly died and they discontinued the product. Forcing me to switch to the Inspire. On the Samsung band itself I was able to see my calories, heartrate, lap count, time, and lap intervals. So I know the ability to make that happen exists. Seems like the fitbit design engineers are just lazy. I shouldn't have to look at the app on my phone to get the lap count. Also having your phone around water is not smart.  The heartrate tracking can be seen on your band for the other exercises, why not the swim? Please work on this.

 

Moderator edit: clarified subject.

A warm welcome to the forums @filmgirl83.

Thanks for providing the details about your suggestion regarding Inspire 3.

I would recommend that you vote for this idea in the Feature Suggestion board of the Community, since this section is regularly monitored by the team of developers.

@filmgirl83 those features (on-watch laps counting) have been also removed from latest models so I wouldn't expect change of direction from Fitbit. If you want to track swimming then Fitbit is probably the worst choice for that purpose.
