You may set up your workout, choosing your goals for your sport’s session and the pool length: the length of the pool is used to calculate the distance you covered. It is good to notice that you can set any pool length on your Apple Watch unlike other types of waterproof watches which restrict this choice, actually limiting the device’s use in many swimming pools.
\nIt is important to set up your swimming workout before starting your activity and when you are outside the pool: once in the swimming pool, your hands will get wet, the touchscreen will be off and it will be harder to use your Apple Watch.
\nYou would also pause your workout while you swim. Normally to pause it in the dry land you have just swipe right and tap the pause button. Once in the water, where the touchscreen is disabled, you have to press the Digital Crown and the side button at the same time.<\/p>\n
