I swam a mile in the open ocean today. It counts my yardage, but I'm wondering why my fitbit won't count those yards toward my daily mileage also it didn't count my swim as active minutes at all. Just weird anyone else have this issue?

My Ionic counts my swims towards active minutes. So I dont see any reason why your Versa wont. Try restarting a couple of times and see if that helps

Restart your tracker

 

As far as adding your swim distance to daily distance travelled, fitbit just doesnt do that (nor cycling distance either). I have no idea why and I think it would be good if it did. It might be worth making a Feature Suggestion (I had a look but couldnt find one ) Feature Suggestions
