SwimGear: Swim Gear Tracker

When should you replace your goggles? How many swims before your cap needs a wash?

SwimGear logs every use of your swim gear, from goggles to caps to swimsuits, and tells you when it is time to replace or wash each item. The next time you are torn between buying new and squeezing out a few more laps, let the numbers decide.

■ Log today's gear in seconds
Tap 'Used today' on the home screen, tick the items you took to the pool, and you are done. Pick several at once, and if you forget, open the calendar and log it on the day it happened.

■ See replacement timing at a glance
Every item gets a ring gauge showing how much life is left. Green while you have plenty of room, orange past 80 percent, red when it is time. One look tells you where things stand.

■ Count by uses, by time, or both
Set a replacement cycle by number of uses (say 100 swims), by period (say 6 months), or both at once. With both set, SwimGear goes by whichever comes first.

■ Recommended cycles built in
Goggles, silicone caps, lycra caps, one piece swimsuits, bikinis, jammers, ear caps and nose clips: pick a category and a typical replacement cycle is filled in for you. Adjust it any time to match how you actually swim.

■ Wash cycles that fit your routine
Decide how many uses or how many days should pass between washes, and SwimGear lets you know when the moment arrives. Tap 'Washed' and the counter starts over.

■ A daily nudge you can trust
Get a notification at the hour you choose, listing gear that is close to replacement and gear that needs a wash. Turn reminders on or off and change the time whenever you like in Settings.

■ Cost per use
Enter what you paid and watch the cost per use drop with every swim. That expensive pair of goggles may turn out to be the best value in your kit bag.

■ Statistics on your swimming habits
See how often you have been in the water over the last 6 months and which items you reach for most, all in simple charts.

■ Photos so gear never gets mixed up
Snap a photo or pick one from your gallery for each item. Even three similar pairs of goggles stay easy to tell apart.

■ Works offline, stays on your device
Everything is stored on your phone. No sign up, no login, nothing sent to a server. Moving to a new device? Export a backup file and bring your history with you.

■ Made for swimmers who
- Swim at least twice a week
- Wonder whether foggy goggles mean it is time for a new pair
- Notice swimsuits stretching out and colors fading
- Want gear to last without giving up on hygiene
- Like knowing, in numbers, what swimming really costs

Light and dark themes are both supported. Removing ads is a one time purchase that stays with you.
