Speedo Launches Swim Training Platform For Garmin Users

One month after Apple unveiled a new version of its smartwatch that integrates more fluidly with a training app called MySwimPro, swimsuit maker Speedo has unveiled a rival platform in hopes of leveraging its already established community of swimmers.

Speedo U.K. in recent weeks has rolled out a beta version of a platform called Speedo On, which enables swimmers to track their workouts through an integration with waterproof fitness trackers. The beta is currently only compatible with Garmin and Misfit, but Speedo plans to add more devices soon. It’s also a web-only platform at the moment — not an app.
