You can swim with it, but it can't track sessions like the TomTom Spark 3 , the Garmin Forerunner 735XT ($319.99 at Amazon) , or some other Forerunner 735XT Firmware 9.60 available for download. Welp, I thought that Garmin had buried any firmware updates for the FR735XT long ago, but hey presto! this evening Garmin Express informed me that version 9.60 was available.
