My Apple Watch 2 detects the wrong swimming stroke

My Apple Watch 2 - automatically detects the wrong stroke each time. I'm swimming 2000m of freestyle and it says I'm doing breaststroke.. it get the lap count correct... also you can't edit the work out afterwards..is anybody else having this issue?

Hi

The following steps may help:

• If you have not yet done so, update your iPhone and Apple Watch to the latest software, starting with your iPhone:
  • Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
  • Update the software on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

• Reset your existing calibration data and calibrate your Apple Watch afresh.
  • Instructions for resetting and recalibrating your Apple Watch are provided in the support article below.
  • Resetting your calibration data will not erase your Activity history.
  • Calibrating your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy - Apple Support

You may also wish to consider using a third-party swimming tracking app. For example:

• Swim.com app:

• Information:

I have the same issue.  The only stroke I generally don't swim is breaststroke and that's what my watch says I swim.

Sometimes it will get some of my butterfly right, but it never seems to record my swimming as freestyle.  This is very frustrating.  I have been trying to get this figured out for months with no success.  It almost seems like Apple knows this is a problem, but they don't have a solution so they don't respond. 

On the other hand, the upgrade with the new OS (4.0) for the watch and phone (11.0.2) have made split times available and it seems to accurately record when I break between swims or for sets.  That's pretty cool.  I just have to ignore the data on the stroke because it is always wrong.  Maybe that will improve with the next OS update.
