Pool Swim tracking

COROS watches support and automatically detect 4 major stroke types in Pool Swim mode including Freestyle, Breaststroke, Backstroke and Butterfly. You can easily change the pool length setting on the watch to meet your need.

Distance is measured and detected when you make a turn. If you don’t use a flip turn, please make sure to include arm movements that are substantially different than stroke movements during the turn.

The pool swimming tracking algorithms are equipped with machine learning mechanism. As a result, please make sure that your strokes and turns are as standard as possible for the first 3 laps. This will affect how the watch tracks the remaining laps of your pool swims. In addition, please don't start the Pool Swim tracking until you are actually in the pool and ready to swim. Please complete warm up activities before starting this mode. 

If your watch can’t accurately measure the distance, please try the following steps.

  • Swim a lap with the correct pool length setting. For example, 25 meters.
  • Change the pool length to 50 meters and finish a lap.
  • Change the pool length back to the correct length, 25 meters, and finish a lap.
  • This should calibrate the watch and fix the distance issue.
