Is my Versa 2 waterproof. It shows swim as one of the activities but I'm a bit wary of going swimming wearing it.

Hello @Lostindalrymple and welcome to the Community.  The Versa 2 specs say that it is water resistant to 50m.  I know people who swim daily with their Fitbits.  There are also users posts who reported that their Fitbit stopped working after swimming.  Fitbit currently recommends NOT wearing your Fitbit in the shower, because soaps, shampoos, and conditioners can weaken the seals.  If you've been wearing your Fitbit in the shower, then you might want to avoid swimming.

@Lostindalrymple If you're past warranty and swimming ruins it, you're on your own. Under warranty, it should be replaced. The seals are known to weaken over time. My whole Versa 2 face fell out.
