A mobile electronic device including: a movement detection sensor; a positioning module; a processor; and a memory, wherein the processor determines whether the device is moving on the basis of a first tentative determination result obtained by determining whether the device is moving based on a value obtained from the movement detection sensor as well as a second tentative determination result obtained by determining whether the device is moving based on positional information detected by the positioning module, and, upon determining that the device is moving, stores the positional information detected by the positioning module in the memory.

A wearable device for tracking swim activities of a user is provided. The wearable device may include one or more sensors configured to generate sensor data, and based on the sensor data, the wearable device may determine swim metrics such as swim stroke count, swim stroke type, swim lap count, and swim speed. The determined swim metrics may be filtered based on one or more swim periods during which the user is likely to have been swimming. The wearable device may determine such swim periods based on the sensor data and/or the determined swim metrics.
