Very limited app
MrWhiteSwitch
It's a great app because it's the only swimming app for Apple Watch. It's a very mediocre app for its capabilities. Its only usefulness can be found for encouraging complete beginner swimmers to maintain a consistent workout scheme. The free version of the app gives you heart rate, distance swam, estimated calories burnt and that's about it. The paid version (which will cost you a hefty $100 a year minimum) will give you more graphs about how your workout consistency and... well, estimated analytics of your swimming. To make short, the app doesn't do anything else important than justify the water resistance of the Watch 2 and log your swimming sessions. You have to tell beforehand what stroke you're swimming and the only thing the app detects is basically the distance traveled. It's advertised as a revolutionary app that will make you a great swimmer, but the pretty layout of the menus are simply not enough. As a competitive swimmer, this app is completely useless to me and would be for any even barely experienced swimmer. Complete beginners will find it useful as it encourages consistency in workouts and advice on how to improve strokes etc... If you pay the $100 yearly subscription. All in all very disappointed. I also have the Moov 2 wristband that provides with extreme accuracy in stroke detection, distance per stroke, precise times for each length, flip-turns etc... I was hoping to get the equivalent with this app for my Apple Watch but I will be sticking with my $60 wristband that actually gives me plentiful accurate feedback on my sessions.
Not reliable

In the last May update, when the watch touches the water the screen goes back to the clock app and MySwimPro does not record the distance. If you can eventually make it stay on the screen, there is no way to end and log your workout; the time keeps going and it says "Ending workout..." until you delete the app and reinstall it.
Great! but too expensive

I use the app with my Apple Watch and it's great for keeping track of my sets and times without having to worry about coming up with workouts or to keep track of laminated pages. There were issues with the app freezing and not tracking workouts properly but that seems to have been fixed with recent updates. My big complaint is still the price of the app. There are a very limited amount of free workouts and the rest is only unlocked with a subscription service of $20 a month or $100 for a year. Which seems like a bit much
Not worth it

App constantly crashes during my workouts. I brought the issues I was having to the attention of the CEO. Still doesn't work.
What the digital swimming community needs!

Great way to track my workouts and share them with other swimmers. Helps me stay motivated. Using with the waterproof Apple Watch 2 makes this app indispensable.
Need help

No review yet. Hope to get one soon. Just curious .. I have the series 2 Apple Watch. Am I able to actually exercise while swimming and take my Apple Watch with me while doing this ?
Most expensive

This app appears utterly useless unless you pay tons of money every month. This app is strictly for the rich swimmer. Useless.
Almost perfect!

The only improvement I would suggest is adding option for swim/ drill, stroke/drill, kick/ swim, etc for 50s and some combos for 75s.
Where are the instructions on how to use this?

I did my first workout but where is my data? Also it took about ten laps for it to start recording my laps accurately. I have gone online to try to figure out how to sync the iwatch with the app on the iPhone - nice looking blog site but does not share anything about using the iwatch or the app. The app on the iwatch was short on instructions so i had no idea how to end the workout or save it.
