My new Watch counts laps when my arms are moving. But when I do kick board intervals, the watch counts it as resting time. (ARGH!) I assume this happens because my arms are holding the kick board and not moving. Is there anyway to correct this in the Activity data or app? (I thought the app used GPS during swims.) Is there a work around or a third party app that will record my pool time accurately?
During swimming the watch uses the accelerometer to measure your movement so if you're using a kickboard the watch thinks you've stopped because you're arm with the watch on isn't moving.
Here is the most popular 3rd party swimming app on the app store;
