    Tried to use this app today. Did not record anything. Swam 2200 yards. Disappointed!

    This app can count kickboard laps! How does it do that?

    Not accurate at all with my Apple Watch 3. I’ve tried it three times. Read all the directions and it just doesn’t work.

  • Awful

    Was doing my workout, moving along fine. I check the watch for a 2nd time, towards end of workout and entire thing is gone. It just shut off mid swim and all the data was lost.
  • Great App but needs refinement

    It’s easy to loose count of laps swam during workouts. Lap Swim records and provides the count on the watch face during the swim, then sends a the related data from the watch to the phone when done. That’s where it needs work. The STOP and SAVE buttons are nearly impossible to find by rotating the crown.
  • I Really Can’t Get This App to Work

    I like the idea of this app but the Apple watch interface is completely confusing. It’s also really unattractive. I need instructions please
  • Best swim lap tracking app

    I’m a recreational swimmer who tried a number of swim lap tracking apps and by far found Lap Swim to be the easiest to use and most accurate. I start it, dive in and it just works. Highly recommend.
  • Best Lap Counter I’ve Found

    I have a short pool, typical for Florida. This counter has exactly what I need, laps and time, shown in large and easy to read fonts. It is accurate where other counters have failed or didn’t even allow for length below 10 yards. The developer is extremely responsive.
