'Best waterproof fitness trackers for swimming 2018 Fitbit Charge 3 The Charge 3 supports a range of fitness modes including running, swimming, cycling, treadmill and strength training. It\'s the true fitness band in the Fitbit line-up and it adds swim tracking to a Charge device for the first time. We found it to be pretty accurate in the water, although doesn\'t deliver an enormous amount of data from the pool. You get the number of lengths as well as time spent and calories burned – but remember to calibrate the size of the pool first. What\'s a little more frustrating is that you don\'t get a live count of your pool stats on the Charge 3 – you\'ll need to look to the Fitbit Versa smartwatch for that. Fitbit Flex 2 While the Flex 2 is no longer the only waterproof Fitbit you can buy, it is the most affordable option for swimmers. The Flex 2 is water resistant to 50m in the pool or ocean and brings a five-day battery life, LED light alerts and fancy accessories to the usual Fitbit features of activity and sleep tracking. It\'ll recognise the four main swimming strokes: freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke and butterfly. While you don\'t get a comprehensive collection of swim metrics, it will track duration, distance and pace for a basic breakdown. If you\'re looking for a basic fitness tracker that\'s good for the water, it\'s a good one to go for. Samsung Gear Fit2 Pro If you want a swim-friendly tracker that will let you review your pool or open water performance, Samsung\'s Gear Fit2 Pro gets our nod. The feature-packed Fit2 Pro still has that gorgeous 1.5-inch curved AMOLED display and now adds waterproofing up to 5ATM so you can take it for a dip. As far as swim tracking skills go, it\'ll record the usual metrics including lap time, lap count and stroke type. The big deal here is that Samsung has partnered up with Speedo\'s ON swimming platform giving you an alternative place to analyse and drill into your data. When you\'re out of the water, it\'s also in our opinion one of the best-looking fitness tracker/smartwatch hybrids to wear 24/7. Garmin Vivoactive 3 When it comes to Garmin, swimming smarts are a big part of the story. Pretty much every device in its line-up is 5ATM rated, and the Vivoactive smartwatch is a great choice for those looking for the best swimming experience. It\'s accurate and boasts a tonne of metrics for tracking distance, time, stroke, SWOLF, temperature, pace, speed in the pool and outdoors, too. Garmin Vivoactive 4 However, if you are set on a fitness band for swimming rather than a big ugly smartwatch, try the Garmin Vivoactive 4. The diminutive tracker can measure heart rate, tracks VO2 Max and is a surprisingly powerful workout partner that will auto-track the basics of your pool swim. Moov Now If you want the best fitness tracker for swimming then this is still the one to go for, in our view. More than just a tracker, the Moov Now comes with built-in coaching, which is designed to offer metrics on improving your swimming rather than just feeding back on it. Waterproof to 30m, the Moov app has a dedicated swimming mode that you turn on before you leave the changing room.
