Can I see my stats on my Versa 4 during an exercise?

[hawkec]

I am thinking of buying the Versa 4 but thought I remembered a few years ago that it didn't have a good display for the running activity. 

Does it show distance, pace and time at once? Or can you toggle between them as you run? Also the actual time? 

And as an aside, what does the display show when swimming?

Hi there, @hawkec. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. I'm glad to hear you're interested in getting a Versa 4! 

Regarding your inquiry, please note that you can tap the screen to check different stats during your workout. 

On Google Pixel Watch series, Sense series, and Versa series, you can also customize the stats shown on the screen:

1. On your watch, open the Exercise app.
2. Swipe through the list of exercises to find the one you want to customize.
3. To customize the stats:
   • On Versa 4—Swipe up to see the exercise settings. In the Show stats section, tap Top, Middle, or Bottom to choose the stats you want to see.
4. Return to the exercise screen:
   • On Versa 4—Swipe down until you reach the exercise screen with the Play icon.
5. Tap the Play icon to start the workout.

As for the swimming activity, please see How do I track swims with my Fitbit device?

thank you for the info.
I read the manual but still can't see the detail - can you tell me what
stats are available to choose from for running, swimming and cycling?

@hawkec You will need to follow @MarreFitbit instructions and then you’ll be presented with options to set the stats you want to see. Here is what it looks like on my Versa 4 and you can toggle different stats on and off.

@hawkec Just to add, when you start a run for example, you would tap on the screen to cycle through the stats in the middle. The top and bottom stat does not change, but by following the instructions above, you can set whatever metrics you want to see. I have my top running stat as Distance and the bottom as Elapsed Time. For the middle, I have chosen to see Pace, Pace Average, Heart Rate, Steps, and Time of Day when I tap the screen.
