SwimSet - build & swim your set
· v1.1.0
About
SwimSet turns the set you'd scribble on the pool deck into a guided pool swim on your watch. No coach, no printout, no Training-API hoops.
Build your session in the free SwimSet web app (swimset.app): warm-up to cool-down, with live distance, time and send-off maths. Hit "Watch code", paste the code into this app's settings in Garmin Connect, then open SwimSet on your watch. Your set is waiting.
In the pool, SwimSet walks you through the set one rep at a time, with the current distance, stroke and send-off on your wrist. The watch counts lengths on its own; if it misses one (kick and drill sets are the usual culprits), press lap once to add it. There's also a full manual mode where the lap key counts every length, for pools and watches that never quite get along. Either way the swim saves as a native Pool Swim activity with the right distance.
And because the whole set is on the screen in front of you, SwimSet works just as well when you can't hear a coach on deck.
Free. No account. Works on Garmin watches with native pool-swim support.
Coming soon: the SwimSet phone app, which builds the set on your phone and pushes it to the watch over Bluetooth in one tap.
What's new
• The lap button now adds one length in both auto and manual mode. If the auto-count misses a length (usually kick or drill sets), press lap once and keep swimming. You don't have to switch to manual mode mid-swim anymore.
• Because lap now means "one length", skipping a whole rep has moved to the menu: press back, then Skip rep.
• Fixed text running into the corner window on Instinct-class watches.
• Manual mode is unchanged: one lap press per length, for watches that never count right.
Paste those over what's in the form and the spacing will render properly.
