Not all of my swimming strokes get tracked

[Stog]

Santa gave my Versa as a Christmas gift and I love it for tracking my sleep.

Today I started back at my 4x weekly swimming class, and I see that for the most part it is measuring most of my laps. What it doesn't recognise is a swimming stroke which my instructor calls the KICK STROKE (where I am kicking my legs, but my arms are pretty immobile, stretched out in front of me, holding on to a float).

Today I actually swam 1,400 metres but because I did 350 metres of the kick stroke, my Versa only calculated 1,050 metres.

I realised the discrepancy right away, and guessed that when transferring the data to my Android, I'd be able to manually edit the lengths or metres (like I can edit the start and stop times of my sleep) but the swimming-session data on my cellphone appears not to be editable.

Might anyone suggest how I can go about rectifying this issue? Clearly, because the metres are not correct, my calories burned etc aren't correct either.....

Very grateful in advance for any suggestions.

Hi, you wrote:

In principle the Versa is "right" cause you do not move your arms during that exercise. The Versa counts your steps by the movement of your arms, e.g. swinging fore- and backward during walking. If you do not move your arms in this way, the Versa is not able to recognize it as steps.

Kuzibri, thanks, I already all of what you told me.

What I was looking for was a way for me to manually update/correct the number of metres I swam.
