I have been using this app for years and LOVE it.
Whether you’re an advanced or a beginning swimmer there are feature that you will love, including:
- Accurate timing
- Find your last interval at a glance
- No need to count laps - the app/watch will keep track of yardage for you
- After your swim you can review the advanced analytics and find out how you’re doing - watch yourself improve
- Smart workouts
- Historical data - look back through previous workouts to see how you’re progressing and you can make notes on the workouts to aid in your training program
- And if you’re really competitive, like me, it’s fun to watch the Leaderboard and try to move up in the standings
- I’m also super excited to hear about the new Open Water swim feature - can’t wait to try it!

After buy my Apple Watch I was looking for an app to swim in the pool that can count the laps, track my speed, understand the strokes, count the rest time in my trainings and then I found Swim.com, so I started to use it and since then I never leave it. I could see during this time (more than four years of use) how the app improves the accuracy of swim tracking, how they add things like smart workouts to be used the days you go to the pool to train alone, and now Open Water support... this app grew up a lot since the beginning. I participated in a couple of contests and could compete with a lot of people around the world that was awesome. I just waiting what else they will bring out from the hat like the magicians did, next time... and another thing... is free... just check it you won't regret

The perfect app for swimming. The option to set custom pool lengths allows any swimmer to start tracking their stats. What I really appreciate most about swim dot com is the feature to set weekly monthly and even annual goals. And local leaderboards. With my watch it tracks everything you need from times, heart rate, lengths number. 1/100% of set target. and lots of other stats. I've tried lots of swimming applications. this is hands down the best.

Hi, I am a happy user and embassador of your app (*****). However, I recently changed my Galaxy watch (#5 now), and there is no gear anymore. When I slide left to set the "last lap" metrics view, the app comes back to the main view during the swim, showing again the whole workout metrics. Can you fix that? As long as there is no gear, it is really uncomfortable to exit the waterproof mode each and every time. I appreciate your continuous improvements, so I hope you can consider that. Thanks S.

At 70 yo I sometimes ( no, all the time) need motivation in these times to get up and do something healthy Keeping track of my daily yardage and checking cumulative weekly, monthly and annual yards against others in similar age groups keeps me getting up early and driving daily to the Y. Having just learned to swim last year i can keep track of how my speed has been increasing. I’m still a tortoise but it’s getting better. Really place a lot of credit for keeping with this new hobby on this app. Just wish the app was better able to discern between my backstroke and breaststroke. Looks like I do a lot of breaststroke ( which I never do); preferred stroke is backstroke which I do a lot of. Other than that I have very few complaints bout this app.

I have used this app to record swims, manually, through my USMS FLOG, and from my Swim2 watch through Garmin Connect. Mostly this was seamless, but when it wasn't the support team was a big help. The support team is super. They are responsive and listen to suggestions well. This is the only app that I know of, where I can fix the mistakes that I made using my watch in the pool. I can also adjust when the watch reads my stroke wrong. This is the go to app for looking at what I actually did.

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 .

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 👍👍👍🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️

All I want is swim tracking. Strokes, rest times, number of laps and distance traveled. That's my old review. Latest upgrades, the graphics, the simplicity, well I can't give you 6 stars. I don't mind the adverts. This app has been free forever. And it's an important reason as to why I have a digital watch. Thank you.

For me the best feature is the automatic pause when I rest, because it’s so intelligent and I don’t need to press any buttons to tell my watch I’m taking a breather at the pool wall. This app does everything the native apple swim workout app does, including its big, red beating heart that tells you your heart rate. It measures lots of metrics, it allows you to select a preset workout, it’s the perfect pool companion!

I’ve used a number of apps over the past few years and the increase in crashes made me look for something new. Swim.com has proved incredibly reliable and extremely accurate.
I swim longer distances and having the confidence that not only will it track my swim, but not drain my Apple Watch battery or crash at the end of the swim if why it’s now it’s my go to swim app.

Easy to use and manually add my yardage. I have a iWatch but can't figure out how to use it with this site
When I click the Leaderboard, it only shows I've done 75yds so I'm obviously doing something wrong as my 3x per week swims are close to 7,500. I'm 67 yrs of age and since covid pandemic have been away from synchronized swimming so loving the pool again
Not techi but at least I can manually enter my yardage
Reported my pool as having changed names and it was quickly corrected! Thank you!

I think the app has gone through a long journey with many ups and downs and I jump down its throat a lot but since Spiraledge took over I can honestly say they are serious as a 49 second 100m in making an app that works. Their cooperation with USMS (which truthfully I dont get beyond the sheen of cooperation) says they are in this for a long haul and extremely responsive John Anthony is someone I would invest in if that was my thing.
They are investing a lot in the community of swimmers especially with the upgrade of the app’s capabilities. A lot of effort is going into the smart workout functions which basically lets you turn the app into your virtual coach in your workout.

Tracks and stores pool swim practice info. Tracks and stores open water swim info. Join groups and participate in virtual competition. Compare to other swimmers by age, gender and type. Filter results by pool, group, time period. Distance total and timed swims by stroke and distance. Download and follow practice sets from device during swims.

Bought myself a new Apple Watch to swim with.
Wasn’t sure which app to download to use the watch to its best potential..
This was the first one I’d seen with best reviews. The app is great, simple to use and gives plenty of stats/ Info. Can even tell what stroke your doing.
5stars from me. Happy Swimming =]

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!

Only complaint is there’s no option to NOT put in distance. Sometimes I just swim for “time” and don’t count the distance. App requires a multiple to place in the distance box. I just put in a random number and then in the notes I explain what I did on this particular training day. Other than that, app is easy to use and very useful, especially for me as a “returning swimmer”, so I can measure my progress. Cheers!

I’ve used swim.com since I got back into swimming after a long break from the water. I tried a number of apps but swim.com was the only one that did what I needed - accurate swim tracking, intervals, and the ability to include drill sets in sessions. The workouts now added are great and cover a range of abilities and objectives specific to you. With open water swim tracking now added as well as manual cross training activities too, it’s my trusty swim companion.

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.

I'd give this a 4.5 if I could. It's not a perfect app, there are some things that could be changed (a more direct way to get to your active challenges, for one). However, it works well with pretty much any fitness tracker out there, syncs nicely with Garmin/Strava. The monthly challenges are very motivating. Making the progress bar for the challenges a bit more prominent would be a nice change, too. All in all, though, this is a great app for us swimmers.

All I want is swim tracking. Strokes, rest times, number of laps and distance traveled. Initially I was having trouble with accuracy. I had terrific response from the app developers. I needed to learn how to 'turn' to feed the accelerometer enough data. I'm now doing a exaggerated kick off the wall after each turn. Tracking accuracy is now great. Thanks

Next thing Im going to annoy them on is to partner with swimmersguide.com so they become the repository for all the pools reviews in the world. Nuff said. Back to the pool.
