Exercise trackers are one of the best ways to control your health, activity and much more, but not everyone will survive a dip in the pool, a shower or even a particularly powerful rain.
That's why we've created a list of our favorite fitness trackers that, in addition to being great at tracking down all the elements of health and keeping your pulse and vital signs, are also waterproof.
Not all the devices on this list are great for tracking your swimming stats, but they're designed to go into the pool with you and will not start frazzling once you start trying to step on the water with them on your wrist.
This ranking is just exercise trackers, so do not expect to see other devices ready to use with water like the Fitbit Versa, the Apple Watch 3 or the Samsung Gear Sport on this list; You will want to consult our best smartwatch summary for anything a little more technical. [19659002] Now let's jump to the deep end so you can discover our favorite wat erproof fitness trackers that you can buy right now.

1. Moov Now
No need to splash with this cheap tracker
Waterproof rating: Up to 30m | Display: No | Heart Rate Tracker: No | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: Yes, over the phone | Battery life: Six months | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Great battery life
Economical price
Limited features
Without display
We love the Moov Now and it's not just because of its super price low . It's an affordable bracelet, but it's also quite capable with many fitness tracking features and a water-resistant design.
You do not have a screen in Moov Now, so you should look inside the application to get a breakdown of all your statistics, and there is no GPS here so you can run, but the six-month battery life makes up for it at least some of that.
In the pool, Moov Now will be able to track your laps, times, distance, pace and beats, although sometimes we have found that it is a bit temperamental. The lack of a screen to watch between turns is also frustrating when you have had to block your phone in a locker in your local pool.
The fact that it is water resistant makes Moov Now an attractive option for your next one. Fitness tracker

2. Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro
Second place for the latest Samsung rating
Waterproof: Up to 50m | Display: Yes, 1.5-inch AMOLED | Heart Rate Tracker: Yes | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: Yes, over the phone | Battery life: 3 days | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Impressive design
Spotify offline support
Awkward configuration process
Expensive for a fitness tracker
The Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro is expensive , but it is one of the best fitness trackers that money can buy right now and one of our favorite features is that it is water resistant. We loved the design of the Gear Fit 2 with its AMOLED curved and shiny screen, and everything is here in the Pro model along with a waterproof design.
You can wear this in the pool with you or even just use it in the shower when your eyes are cloudy in the morning, and you will not have to panic when you notice that it is still on your wrist.
The Gear Fit 2 Pro also comes with a good battery life and the ability to synchronize your Spotify account, so you can listen to music that you previously downloaded to the tracker by connecting a pair of Bluetooth headphones.

3. Huawei Band 2 Pro
Slim and has an impressive battery life
Waterproof rating: Up to 50 m | Display: Yes | Heart Rate Tracker: Yes | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: Yes | Battery life: 21 days on standby | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Reasonable price
Accurate step count
Classic application
Lacks innovative design
More affordable than the previous Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro, here is the Huawei Band 2 Pro which is also water resistant and ranks third in our best list of waterproof trackers.
It has a slim design, which means it's comfortable for the wrist and is packed with features that include a heart rate monitor, VO2 Max monitoring, GPS, step and sleep tracking. All this is combined with the best battery life we've seen in a tracker that has a screen, about a week.
During our tests, we did not find the Band 2 Pro to have the most accurate results we've seen in a fitness tracker, but it's still comfortable, affordable and easy to use.
Music, monitoring of physical condition and navigation on the wrist
Qualified Waterproofing: Up to 40 m | Display: Yes, monochrome | Heart Rate Tracker: Yes | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: Yes | Battery life: Two weeks | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Music without phone
GPS navigation
Maze-like menu system
Mediocre sound quality
In fourth place we have TomTom Spark 3, which we love it for its music integration that allows you to listen to your songs while traveling without your phone.
GPS tracking, a heart rate monitor and the TomTom navigation route specialization are also included here, and of course it is water resistant.
Swimming tracking in Spark 3 is not great, but it's solid and one of the many activities you can track with the device.

Waterproof classification: Up to 50 m | Display: Yes, LCD color | Heart Rate Tracker: No | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: No | Battery life: 1 year | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Super long battery life
Small but color display
Without GPS or heart rate
No phone notifications
Although the Garmin Vivofit 4 is High on this list, keep in mind that it is not the most complete device. It does not come with GPS or a heart rate scanner, but it has a slim and attractive design that looks good on the wrist.
That design is also water resistant, and there are swim tracking modes built into the tracker so you can take this for some lengths in your local pool as well.
The Vivofit 4 is not expensive, it also has a long battery life up to a year before you need to replace the battery, and gets a color screen to look at too, which is pretty amazing considering that some trackers monochromes struggle to last a week.

Do you want something sporty? Try this Garmin
Waterproof rating: Up to 50 m | Display: Yes, color touch screen | Heart Rate Tracker: Yes | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: Yes | Battery life: 7 days | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Small for a GPS tracker
Good battery life
Uneven design
No swimming modes
The second waterproof Garmin We have highlighted in this list, the Vivosport is a touch more expensive than the previous device, but it comes with a built-in GPS and a heart rate sensor as well.
The design language of Garmin is very similar in all its devices, and we really like the appearance of this band, while the fact that it lasts a whole week with a single charge despite being full of range features High is impressive.
It may be water resistant, but we observed in our complete review that it is not excellent for tracking swimming and is much better for many other workouts that include cycling and jogging.

7. Polar M430
A running watch built for rain
Waterproof classification: Up to 30 m | Display: Yes, monochrome | Heart Rate Tracker: Yes | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: Yes | Battery life: 20 days | Compatibility: Android / iOS
Good battery life
Reliable and accurate
Not the best appearance
Annoying charging cable
Although the Polar M430 can be designed Mainly for runners, this watch will also be suitable for a variety of other activities, including daily step counts and even a little sleep tracking as well.
The water resistant design makes this one of the most suitable devices for when you're in the rain or if you want something you can use and do not have to worry about taking off in the shower.
You can track your location through GPS, there is a heart rate monitor and we are also impressed with the battery life. We also found the statistics of rhythm, distance, speed and cadence while running to be very precise.

Do you think you like the look of a Garmin fitness tracker? The Vivosmart 3 is more expensive than some devices you will see in this list, but it offers almost everything you might need from a band of activity.
The tracker will last about six days, depending on how much you use it, and it comes with a heart rate monitor that is placed on your wrist and a function called age of exercise that gives you another metric to try to improve when you become more healthy.
There is no GPS here, so if you want something to work and if you want to track your location, you may prefer the Polar or Garmin Vivosport over this product in the list.

Feature-light, but it's cheap and waterproof
Waterproof classification: Up to 50m | Display: No | Heart Rate Tracker: No | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: No | Battery life: 5 days | Compatibility: Android / iOS / Windows
Comfortable and lightweight
Funny software
The battery life is not dazzling
Feature-light
One of the Fitbit products more The economical that you can currently buy is also a superior waterproof tracker. This is the Fitbit Flex 2 and will track your steps, as well as your sleep and some other metrics.
There is a simple design and the functions are also limited, since there is no GPS or heart rate monitor here. To obtain those features in a Fitbit product, you must opt for something more expensive, such as a Fitbit Ionic.
Unlike the Fitbit Charge 2, this product is water resistant, making it the optimal tracker if you want to get something of the big name in fitness trackers that are cheap and will survive the bizarre trip to the shower.

10. Honor Band 3
Basic follow-up more will go in the pool
Water-resistant rating: Up to 50 m | Display: Yes | Heart Rate Tracker: Yes | Activity tracking: Yes | GPS: No | Battery life: Up to one month | Compatibility: Android / iOS / Windows
Swimming and sleep tracking
Extended battery life
Basic tracking
Without GPS
Another economic tracker here and we like Honor Band 3 for what it offers at its low price. There is no GPS and the application that you use with it is limited, but you can accurately monitor your heart rate and also have a long battery life.
We really like the design of this tracker and it has a clear screen, which is not always something that can be guaranteed in a band of economic activity.
This includes swim tracking and sleep tracking, so you may want it if you are looking for an attractive, economical and water resistant fitness tracker. .
