What people like

- Fast and helpful customer support team
What they complain about
- Stroke detection misses kick sets often
- App crashes and loses workout data
- Support ignores your help requests
Awsome
I use this every day. I swim a mile every day. This is the best app with an Apple Watch for tracking your swim I also use the pace setting when I'm doing pace workouts. This is way better than anything. The Apple Watch comes with.
terrible for Apple Watch
App does not save custom workouts, only pushes them to Apple Watch. then the tracking j. the watch does not work - rest timer completely broken, lap tracking broken, randomly closing app to home screen
Crashes
Twice now the app has stopped logging after three laps. It remains in water mode, but I can’t determine how far I’ve gone. Please fix.
Linked accounts
After I got this app setup I spotted the link accounts tab, so clicked it and noticed I could link Strava, I thought great so linked it, great! But I can’t see anywhere in this app where I can sync Strava info over to it! Which I thought was strange considering I have “linked” Strava and swim.com and there for still have to input my swims manually which is kind of annoying after linking them😞
Vudu
App syncs much faster now but it doesn’t give active or total calories. It has access to everything. I can see my calories in the watch but it’s not syncing or showing in the app nor in the rings area
The best swim tracking and analysis app
This app is my ‘go to’ swim logging and analysis app. I have used several independent apps for tracking and analysis, in addition to device specific iPhone apps. The highlights include: - Excellent, detailed view and presentation of activity analysis broken down by intervals, or lengths. - Allows correction of incorrect lap counts and details made by devices. Although requiring some mathematical calculations of time to make correct adjustments. - A good, simple, and clear interface, allowing quick access to ‘You[r]’ previous activities. Presenting a good basic summary, separate from coaching and promotional posts. - Good integration, logging activities from all devices. - The Apple Watch app is one of the best fit-for-purpose swimming apps, along with the Apple fitness app. Although, this is not my primary training device. I haven’t used the ‘Coach[ed]’ activities, a lot. However, the collection of activities that can be sent to your device is decent. It could allow more functionality in searching and finding activities. This app doesn’t charge a prohibitively excessive annual subscription fee. The downsides: the app has no iPad interface, and there is no browser interface for browser analysis. Nb: the app collects a lot of personal data, although necessary to support the functionality, I’m not sure how much this is used outside of the personal analytics functionality.
Not Syncing
I’ve been trying to use the app but it’s not syncing with my iWatch Fitness app. I tried logging manually all my swims but still it’s not connecting and not tracking the activities. I also requested for help through the website without any response. What a bummer!
Better but not great. Weak appleFitness integration
Update March 2025 Positives: On Watch info is much better now. Using crown can switch between 2 main screens 1. total lengths swim and average pace / 100 swum (not including rest like AW app) - time swum and current heart rate 2. Interval distance and pace plus heart rate (not sure if max or average in interval but seems to be average) 3. swim.com app on phone is very good to track each element of each lap (except kick/drill) To be improved: 1. Getting to drill mode while in water clunky and basically useless because one still has to go through the eject water cycle and touching screen with wet fingers is difficult at best. Getting out of drill model has the same issue with the risk of stopping or pausing by accident. 2. Unfortunately does not manage kickboard / kick tracking like the AW app. Not sure why not. That would largely eliminate the need for drill mode. 3. Apple fitness integration is ok. You have to use swim.com app for detail but in Apple Fitness at least rings are measured for calories and exercise time. You won’t find interval information there anymore only a cumulative figure and the weak average pace (including rest)as well as distance, heart rate over session etc. Added functionality requested: 1. In the interval session it would be great to have rest time for next set as well as turn-around time / repeat on so I know when to start. 2. Current and max interval heart rate would be really good to to track effort 3. Kick(board) tracking like the AW would be great. I loose a few hundred meters each session without this. I’ve not used the coaching section as I have a coach with team!! Can’t comment on that. So up to 4 stars for me. Update Jan 2023
Buggy and zero tech support response when you create a ticket
The app appears to double count some strokes leading to misleading distances. I created a trouble ticket, sent them the verification code that was generated to validate myself and then….nothing. Sent them a follow up email and….. nothing. The app apparently is only as good as the support behind it. Right now I wouldn’t recommend it.
Used to be better :/
And when i say used to, i mean a few weeks ago it was better. it suddenly stops recording my workout randomly, sometimes it won’t show me how much time i have left in my rest for a set leaving me to basically guess, and it’s not always accurate on how many yards i actually swam, it’s often 25-50 yards behind. i will say that by the end of the workout its usually correct but during the workout its often wrong. this morning not only did it stop tracking my workout, the app exited and i lost ALL of my progress for that workout. idk what happened but im taking a break till these issues are fixed.
Excellent app for swimming
This is an excellent app for open water and pool swimming. Good Apple Watch app with relevant metrics . Would be better to have full integration with Apple fitness app so full swimming data is synced across. The UI could also be updated in line with WatchOS 10.
Always glitches out
I find that if I even take a second to pause it will skip on to the next interval
Just needs to capture kick sets
I was looking to find a better app to apples workout that captured the time you swam against the time stopped. Which is does excellently with this app. However it does struggle to recognise activity without me moving the watch during a kick set.
Disappointing, tried many times.
This app is just not good. I have tried it numerous times over several years. It never picks up kick, even when it’s built into a guided workout. You really can’t veer off course from a workout or make edits on the fly. The laps counter and yardage counter is always off and I find that the calorie counter is extremely off from most other apps.
Good, with flaws
I have this and MySwimPro on my phone and watch but now am using only Swim.com. The other app will not let me use it without subscribing to the coaching service. This app has as much analytics, though I don’t use most of them. But, there are too many glitches when I use the app that distract from its benefits. It frequently and almost predictably miscounts my laps. The watch display freezes when I am trying to read it. It’s good, but has room for improvement.
All fixed
My previous issues with the app were actually WatchOS related. Now that everything is working properly, I have no complaints. The app keeps track of my swimming including rest time. It’s nice to be able to track my progress throughout the year. Thanks to swim.com ‘s quick and responsive support team!
Poor tracker
Warning: negative report. I swim daily. It is not tracking, gets stuck, fails to record accurately. While I love the idea of getting my USMS practice schedule uploaded to my watch, it doesn’t work. At this rate, I am printing out my workouts and taking them to the pool daily. I would love to have the support, and it’s not worth the annoying feelings during a workout.
Very good, some issues
I’ve tried multiple swim apps and this has been the best at tracking my swims on my watch during the swim. Would like it if the interval time was a bit larger for readability (I like to glance at watch on my turns), but otherwise works great. One thing that bugs me is that often when uploading my swim to phone, it wipes out my movement activity on the watch as if I didn’t work out at all. My movement will literally drop a few hundred calories. Would be great if this was fixed!
Unstable from time to time
In general very good. But I’ve had experiences where the app logs me out and won’t respond; or can’t upload workouts from Apple Watch.
Won’t let me change my birthday
I haven’t tested it yet, but I am a younger swimmer. My Apple Watch does track my swimming distance very well, me and my family have had problems with Apple fitness.But that’s not the point, I try to change it to my birthday but I won’t let me. Even though the app says 4+ kinda confusing but yeah
Great app enjoy using and seeing the data breakdown after my swim / very helpful.. thanks
Great website to use for logging and viewing my swim stats
Frustrated
App was fine for long time. Recently stopped tracking swims. Submitted a request for help twice. No responses Just tried deleting and reloading app. Hopefully todays swim will be tracked
Good
I like this app lots. Lots of details
Where are the GPS maps for OWS
This was a good app but recently the map function disappeared for current and past OWS. Please bring it back. I have written two requests to customer support with no response.
Works pretty good, but needs some adjusting
I’ve used this App for a while now and I’ve noticed it doesn’t recognize when I mix kick board laps in with my intervals. I seems like the app misses the turn and just keeps timing the last lap. I also noticed it didn’t sink my calories burned for the swimming session.
Excellent App and customer support
After 3 years of using this app, I can say it covers all the needs of the swimmer and it keeps evolving and adding functionalities. Unmatched and highly responsive customer support makes it even better.
Distance
This app is terrible half the time I’m using it it gets the distance wrong terrible
I like it
The only issues is that it does not register my kick sets in a pool unless I swing my one arm a few times each 25. I would give this app 5 stars if it just counted my kicks. I like that it gives me my average 100 time based on my movement and not just the overall workout time divided by the distance swam. This results in much more accurate 100 pace during workouts. No other problems at all.
Difficult to navigate and use
The app provides no way to filter workouts and includes virtually nothing for the beginner level. Incorporation with watch is problematic, too. No way to easily pause the workout. Better to use the open swim option and try to figure out a workout on your own the old fashioned way.
Works most of the time
I like the app and it does a decent job tracking my yardage (and I love that you can do drill sets). My problem is that every 2-3 swims the app just closes / stops / crashes and loses track of my workout. It’s SO frustrating to swim and have it crash (sometimes multiple times during a workout).
Great app for swimmers!
This app works. I am not sure where all the complaints come from. It counts laps, yards/meters, shows heart rate in one place. The new redesign on AW is just perfect. Especially the color coding. The stats on phone seems to be a little “cluttered” but still show all that is needed. This review comes from a guy with over 40 years of experience swimming. To developers, keep up the great work. Thanks!
Watch app completely failed to track
No matter what, I could not get the Apple Watch app to track my swim today. It’s the first time I swam in 2 1/2 years, and I’ve use Swim.com a lot in the past on both Samsung and Apple Watches. For whatever reason, it just would not track. The display would go back to the watch face leaving the water lock active, and there was no display of any swimming done. I un-water-locked the watch launch the app, it was right back to the default screen where you start your workout. I tried this a few times and gave up. Ended up using Apple Watch, but I was already partway into my swim, so I only got part of it recorded.
Great motivator
Joining challenges keeps me going back to swim. Updates are slow but great for tracking swims.
Wouldn’t recommend watch app, workouts good though
Good concept, but watch app is very buggy. Wouldn’t let me “end workout,” then just crashed, deleting the whole workout I’d just done. Watch UI mostly unhelpful with having to unlock water mode to get any details about the set. App is fine if you’re just using for workout library
Missing functions, frequently down
I like the workouts since I am a masters and prior competitive swimmer. The long distance workouts are great. However, there needs to be a way to search by distance or coach. The workouts are loosely put into categories (IM, Free, etc) but often not really representative of the categories. Please get Garmin support so I can get the workout to my watch. The app is often down and can’t get in. If doing maintenance, please don’t do Saturday mid mornings since that is a prime time for heading to the pool for a workout.
Works great for me
Used today , I usually used the apple swimming app but this gives more detailed information plus I like the way it automatically pauses if you have to stop , just one thing to be aware of and that’s you need to give the app permission to access apple health once that’s done your swim data also appears in your apple activity .
You ruined a great app!
Since the update, the Swim app does not update Apple Watch workouts for days and sometimes not at all. What happened??
Good, but a little wonky with stroke detection
They’ve made some good improvements to the app over the last few years. I like the drill setting, and how it’s easy to edit workouts. However, stroke detection needs work. I’m a pretty experienced swimmer, with really good form, but it still thinks my butterfly is freestyle, and sometimes thinks my backstroke is breaststroke. I’m not sure if this is a bug with Apple Watch 8 (stroke detection was better on my series 5). It is good with lap count, but could be improved in recognizing sets better…even tho I do flip turns and long sets, it still divides sets into smaller sets. Still, I do like the improvements they’ve made in the last few years. Keep working on it.
Nope
Has some nice features. But it can’t recognize when I’m kicking. Seems pretty basic for a swim training app. Even the Out-of-the-box Apple Workouts app is more accurate. I’m using a series 10 watch, so an older model can’t work any better.
Overstating Distance
Apple Watch SE owner since October 2022. For some reason the app is overstating my distance in the water today I did 500 yards the watch record of 1200 yards however using the native activity app that comes with the phone My distance was recorded accurately. Any ideas?
Excellent and highly recommended
I tried other apps but this is the best so far. It doesn’t miss laps ( unlike others), easy to use. It shows a lot of features that other apps have only on subscription. I honestly love it and helped improve my pace and distance. Overall great.
please fix bug
after updates as 5.4.9, the app is crushed whenever i tried to access the specific club information.
Not loading stats
More accurate than iSwimStat, and I compare it with a couple others but this doesn’t load quickly. It takes hours or even days to show up even though I refresh many times. Not sure if I’m using it correctly. Synched with Apple Watch.
Does not sync
Tried using it with my Apple Watch but it couldn’t tell when I ended a lap and I had to manually advance to the next drill. Didn’t log as a workout either in the swim.com app or apple workouts. Love the idea of getting workouts on my watch but not helpful if I can’t track my progress. Easier to just print out a workout and stick it on a spare kickboard.
App tends to lock up when using upload button. Had to delete and reinstall app each time it happens.
Use only the done button helps
My Primary Swimming app
After using a few apps for my swimming this one is my absolute favourite by far. It gives me the data I want and also recognises the change in stroke when I’ve gone from Freestyle to Breaststroke. Honestly I don’t find any faults with this app thus far personally. Thank you for designing this app for us all guys 👍👍👍🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️
Doesn’t Track Breast Stroke
I used this for a couple months.It always showed half my swim time as rest time. Support ignored me after one response. Switched back to apple workout app that tracks everything as active time.
Stopped uploading to Apple health
I like this app because it’s the only one I know of that lets me edit back in my kick set yardage after the workout is done. There is no choice for a kick set in the editing section so I call them a drill. App worked well until recently then suddenly stopped uploading data to Apple health. After about one month an update was released and now everything is working properly again.
Initially good
Initially this seemed a good app to have on my phone. Now it keeps crashing my iPhone and loosing all the current data
This app was working great….
However after updating to apple watch 8 it’s not importing my swims t the Apple activity tracker …..
