Using Applewatch to swim in endless pool option
Currently no setting for endless pool option, any suggestion how and which are the best setting? the distance and calories feel inaccurate. Tks!

I submitted a feature request as should anyone who wants this.
I think the best solution is similar to how Apple Watch handles treadmills that don't have an option to sync with the watch: calculate pace and distance based on outdoor walks & runs and apply that to treadmill walks & runs. It's imperfect but it's reasonable. This option could work for all SwimSpas not just Endless Pools. The Apple watch would encourage the user to swim in a regular pool and then use that data for the swims in SwimSpas.

I use the “ open swim “ option so I get the pulse & time data. I agree having a setting analogous to treadmill running would be helpful
