noticed something ... odd ... yesterday.

 

I was in the pool yesterday, manually started Swim mode and had a pleasant few laps. Checking my stats when I got home imagine my surprise... as well as 30 mins swim, I'd somehow walked almost 3000 steps at the same time.

 

Given I'd explicitly told the Sense2 I was swimming that surprised me.

Steps are counted 24/7 regardless of what you do. Swimming involves wrist motion and that is detected as steps. Can't help it.
