    I’d like to not include rest periods in my total time and average paces. What’s the best way to do that?

    Also, I find that the last lap of a set isn’t counted until I pretend to push off again. Is there a way to have the lap count once I end the set instead of having to push off again?

          just wait, have you ever tried? every time you finish a tub and don’t leave, watch takes 5-7 seconds to count it.
          For resting time, I take laps but I know…it’s not the best choice. Maybe…later we can see watch we saw in movescount, with autorecognition of time of pause 😉

            When you do a lap for the rest how do you manage in Movescount/ Suunto app?

            I use auto pause but the main problem is I don’t know the rest time and sometimes drives me crazy.

              I don’t take pause. When i do, for example 10x100m with series recovery till 2’, I’m starting with the activity, suppose we get to 100m in 1’40 ", I press the lap and we will repeat it once I get to 2 '. And so on: the following at 100m, arriving at 3’40 ", I press lap and I will repeat it at 4 ', starting again.

              In MC is yet clear, in SA laps are coming 😉

                @Saketo-Nemo this seems to produce correct intervals in the Suunto app. My manual laps are off, ex: a 200yd interval may show in the manual section as a 175yd lap and a 25 yd lap. I guess this has to do when the last length is counted and when I press the lap button. The app probably does something in the background to create a 200yd interval which is what I meant to have done in the first place.

                  Thank you very much, so you don’t use auto pause and autolaps? You use it like I was used to use my Garmin.

                  I will try it that way. The lack of laps in Suunto app was driving me crazy.

                    @Saketo-Nemo when do you press the lap bottom? When you finish straight or do you turn and press lap?

                      No autopause, no autolap.
                      Press lap at the end of a serie and when i start again

                        how do you auto pause on pool swims? I don’t see to have that feature in my Pool Swimming options

                          @Saketo-Nemo when I press lap at the end of an interval, it doesn’t count my last length. See example in my screenshot below. The screenshot shows a 200 meter interval (~218 yards) but it counted the last length of 25m (27 yd) during my “rest”. Does that happen to you? The only way I can avoid this is by waiting about 5 seconds and then my last length is counted. 877e0832-8727-4699-b958-e86faf2bdb9b-image.png
