Love the app

Thanks speedo! Simple, efficient, practical. Best swim app. I have tried a lot of them but this one is excellent!!

Perfect swim app

This app is great for setting realistic and fun goals. It makes recording sessions beautiful and simple. It does exactly what it says it will do and it does it well. If you want more features, pay for it. This is one of the best free apps out there.

Wont show Sunday workouts

I got this app tonight, so I logged all my swims for the month (that Ive already done). It will log swims I did on Sundays, but it wont let me edit or view them. I can see all my other swims, though. How weird is that?

Good, but bugs

I enjoyed using the app to track my swims and progress, but i shouldnt have been kicked out multiple times. Good until the bugs were exposed.

Nothing Works

100% bugs on every single feature. Not a single thing works. Nice job to your reputation here speedo.

KISS

Keep it simple. The visual design is great, but the code doesnt work. Heres why: You are trying to do to much with the resources assigned to this project. DO NOT try to catalog every swimming pool in the world and make it very difficult to add a workout if the pool is not in the database. There is a great 50 meter pool in Eugene, Oregon named Amazon that is not in the database. It is the best pool within 200 miles. Everyone knows this except for Speedo! Let people enter there own pools. Make sure that a workout that took place THREE DAYS AGO can be entered and updated ANY TIME. Again, KISS.

Problems with app need to be fixed

1) Overview doesnt show all swims and when you click on a day where it seems you dont have a swim logged, surprise the swim you actually completed shows up. 2) Couldnt edit a swim to record sets. 3) The feedback feature under tools bombs out the app. Other than those problems, I love the app. Also, it would be nice if when you logged a swim it gets recorded to the Misfit activity log. I deleted a swim on Misfit because it got recorded as basketball, so when I logged a swim in Speedo app, I didnt get credit.

Motivating but slightly cumbersome

The goals made me want to get back to the pool. Integration with apples health kit is awesome. Setting durations is a little odd. It assumes youre logging your workout at the exact time me you start.

Tracker

Wanted a way to track my swims and see improvements in distance and time. Have been using the app for 3 years now and can see one years progress. The improvement with the update helped see the year better

Speedo

Loving it!

Horrible

Used to be a great app. Now its just horrible. Havent been able to log my swims for a couple of months now. Always says "Service Update. Were having a few problems with the service. Weve been notified of the problem and are busy fixing it." My phones always updated so I dont know whats happening.

Poor App

Speedos prior app was much better. Each work out contained a drill set which was linked to actual videos of the drills. These workouts have no drill set. A handful of videos are available elsewhere in the app but they are very basic and, as not integrated into the work out, are cumbersome to use. I recommend finding a different app.

Disappointing

Why in the world when logging a workout can you only record in lengths of a pool? The app absolutely needs to provide options to record workouts in yards/meters and breakdown the workout but sets. This inability renders this app completely useless and is embarrassing for A company whose core customers are operate in yards/meters. Also, the workouts provides are close to useless, as they dont provide useful instruction beyond a total distance to shoot for per workout.

Swim-focused app fun and user-friendly

This is the best app Ive found for training that is swim-focused. I like that I can record total distance, time, and sets. I also really enjoy the distance challenges, Im 10 swims into a 26 mile challenge and Im able to compete with my fiancé and friends. Its not a necessary feature, but it enhances tracking and makes this app unique.

Great app

Helps me see my progress and challenges me to be better each day...

Awesome update!

The new addional stats and their presentation in the dashboard is a work of art. Way to go Speedo!

Why can’t I enter distance in yards/meters?

The app is a really good way to keep myself accountable and track workouts long term. But I (and I suspect anyone who has ever swam competitively) don’t track distance in the number of lengths. I track it in 1000’s of yards. So every time I enter a workout, I have to calculate in my head the number of lengths it was. The app should have an option to enter either by lengths or by distance in yards or meters.

Fantastic

This app is even better since the last update; now it has a month calendar view which is what I was looking for in the first place. I use it to track how often I swim and how far. The only thing thats not perfect is that it doesnt remember my custom pool so I have to type it in every time. I love the map goals feature!

Error

Love the app and just updated but still getting error when trying to update logged swim: Expected status code in (200-299), got 404". Please fix, thanks!

Pretty Good to record Swims

Ive been using this app since Oct 2014 and its been pretty good- it would be nice to be able to add a pool like our neighborhood swim team pool thats 25m. I have to use the Add a Note feature every single time I swim here as it doesnt remember Ive been here and its not in the list. Also, the integration with my fitness pal is sketchy especially when my fitness pal app updates. Overall, its a great start.
