NO, Fitbit HR is not even shower friendly, it can get wet, but it i not recommended Only thing I dont like about this model, but the waterproof one I had which was a Garmin was entirely inaccurate on my calorie burning, off by as much as 1500 calories a day. This one is within a few hundred.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No! Do not wear this on the pool or shower/bath. The tracker will be ok for wearing in mild to light rain but you don't want to get it soaked.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.NO! The Charge and Charge-HR have a built-in barometric sensor which tells the device how many flight of stairs you've done. There is a small port in the Charge for this sensor which would allow water in if you were to wear it while swimming. I haven't checked the warrantee but I would guess that it excludes water damage.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not advised by Fitbit. Splash proof only per the recommendations. However, there are several stories around the web of people wearing them in the pool to no ill affect.. but if you want it not to break, I would advise against it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I wouldn't recommend it. I tried it with the basic Charge and, after time, the display started to erode. It got to the point where I just couldn't read the display. I needed to login to the app to get the info. I replaced the Charge with the Charge HR. Now, I don't even wear it in the shower.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's water resistant but not water proof. It won't work in a pool.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No not at all. I wish they were really waterproof.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, this item is not water resistant.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Read their marketing info. Not only is it not pool proof, it is not shower proof.
I would recommend:
