On my Apple Watch Series 3 - something new is happening, after using the pool swim for a year suddenly ‘lap count’ is not appearing on the watch. What do I need to do?

Apple Watch swimming lap count problem After the latest Apple Watch upgrade my swimming app is missing lap count. On average it’s 2 laps per 10 laps. When I complete my 40 laps, the Watch records 36-38 laps When I analyse the data, some Laps are 50s which is impossible for my speed. Others have way too long rest. I also inherited the Watch 6 recently after apple launched Watch 7. I reset the Watch & recovered by Watch for Watch 6. This new Watch 6 is experiencing the same issues

Make sure you have the latest updates on both your iPhone and Watch. Next, reset your watch by pressing in the crown and side button until you see the Apple logo, then release both.
