Open Water Swim

I’m a senior woman who rediscovered a passion for open water swimming six years ago. Having the Open Water Swim app last season and this has been a motivating and inspiring way to log my swims and track my distance and pace. I’m way ahead if my total mileage and also distance each swim stats from last year at this time. Also, I often swim alone so in a funny way it’s like having a companion that recognizes my effort.

I love this app. I use it all the time when I swim or surf. It saves all my information into my phone & linked to Strava. Plus it also saves my watch by turning on the water safe mode (even though this happens automatically with other apps, but this way I’m sure it’s on)! Also, it’s not as expensive as some other apps, but does the same tasks with quality. The only thing I’m still trying to figure out is how to display my distance in yards rather than miles (like 2000 yds instead of 1.25 miles), I’ll figure it out eventually. 😊⌚️👍🏼

Went out today for my first swim with Open Water Swim App and it worked really well! Stats like pace and distance seem much more accurate than other apps I’ve tried and it was good fun to be able to share a beautiful visualization with friends and family. It was also eye-opening to see how much I swam off-course. Will definitely return to the post-swim stats and maps to gauge progress. Overall, really pleased and recommend highly.
