How do I properly track a water aerobics class with my Luxe?

What do I have to do before entering pool for water aerobics class?

Hi, @Kitsyru , I would recommend using the exercise app on your Fitbit and tracking it as a “swim”.  Using the swim exercise shortcut automatically turns on the water lock on the Luxe.  The water lock does NOT cause it to be more water proof - that is a misunderstanding!  The water lock DOES prevent splashing from activating your Luxe and potentially pausing or ending your tracking.

Once your session is finished double tap very firmly on the screen until you see the symbol indicating your screen is unlocked and then click the flag to finish tracking.

Once your activity has synced to your app, on the opening, Today screen, click on the exercise tile and then click on your swim session.  Then you can “categorize” your exercise (if you are on iOS -on Android click on the pencil icon).  Start typing “water” into the search box and “water aerobics” should pop up.  Save/log  it, and job done!  You will have a record of your Water Aerobics session saved to your activity log, with timing, heart rate etc.

This sounds a bit complicated, but only because I have written out all the steps.  It all only takes a moment.
