With the new Samsung Galaxy s7 having come out with a phone that is waterproof, can fitbit make a smart watch that is very much like the surge but able to be used in the water. I am not talking about like water resistant, I mean a fitbit that is able to be used in a pool. One of the exercises it can have would be swimming. That way I don't have to take off my fitbit and I can monitor how long I have been swimming. I think that is a feature that needs to be used in the next fitbit moddle. People love waterproof stuff, that's why the s7 was so popular.

I have thought of that, but when I swim in a public pool I don't want to
leave it alone unless it is locked in my locker. I also don't want to carry
it because it slows my swimming. That is why I would like a fitbit that
would be fine to wear while swimming. It would just make life so much
easier.
