I want to get a good fitness tracker and have looked at the Fitbits but they aren't for use in the pool. I plan to do a lot of water walking and aquatic fitness classes because of bum knees. I've been looking at ones for swim but would like to hear first hand from someone with knowledge about them. Any suggestions?

I don't use the fitbit, I use the Jawbone. Although it is Water resistant I don't use it in the water. Honestly, I'm not sure you would find a good one that would be able to withstand being submerged in water consistently. That being said, I am able to log my activity into the jawbone, which activity, the duration, and the intensity. From there it will estimate caloric burn. I'm sure the fitbit would do something similar. Personally, the estimated caloric burn and knowing I'm doing good things for my body and health have been enough. I will be interested to see what others have to say! Good luck to you! I get a new knee in December so I'll be back in the water again!

I know you said someone who has used them and I have not. But Garmin has swim watches. That's actually what they are made for so you might wanna look into them.

Choosehope I am also using aquatics for my exercise. I googled top ten waterproof fitness trackers ( not water resistant) and got a list of several mentioned on this site. I'm considering the garmin Vivosmart because it seems to have the features I like, including swipe screen technology. It looks nice too. Let me know which one you choose????

I use a polar FT4 and have used it for swim.

I have a Garmin Vivoactive. I love it. I have yet to use it in the pool, but it has a swim tracking function as well as walking, running and other cool stuff. I was torn between the Vivoactive and the 920xt. Vivoactive won because it was half the cost of the 920xt.

_{I have the Garmin Vivofit2. I hardly ever take it off. I do Water aerobics and aqua zumba. The Vivofit2 is good to a depth of 50 ft.}

I just got a Garmin Vivosmart and am liking it so far. I went with it specifically because you can wear it in the Water. So far I've worn it for a deep water aerobics class, a few showers, and washing the dishes.

I love my Garmin Vivosmart and also got it because I can go swimming. Fantastic!

I've got the Fitbit. And I use it in the shower, and the pool. I've done Aqua Zumba, and swam with it all summer with out any issues. ????
