I think you’re right, that does like like what they mean.
Perhaps Apple should write ‘GPS will only provide distance when you do freestyle’, if they want to use it as a synonym for front crawl, as ‘a freestyle stroke’ is a little indistinct.
Or better still, just put front crawl!
I mean in terms of distance and a potential map of the swim…
I definitely swam further than 0.11k!
Does that just mean front crawl, then? I thought freestyle incorporated all the main strokes…
Cheers for your answer, by the way 👍
Open Water Swim: GPS will only provide distance when you do a freestyle stroke.
That is a quote from this page;
Yes freestyle is generally considered to be "front crawl",in Apple speak.
Hi all, is there a way to get better tracking for Open Water swims on the Apple Watch? Cheers
