A: OpenSwim Pro has 32GB of MP3 storage. The estimated capacity can vary depending on the file size of your songs. Here's a breakdown for your reference:
Regular Quality Songs (around 4 MB each): You can store approximately 8,000 songs.
High-Quality Songs (around 8MB each): You can store approximately 4,000 songs.
What music file formats are compatible with OpenSwim Pro? Does it support Bluetooth music transfer?
A: OpenSwim Pro offers broad compatibility with various audio formats, including MP3, FLAC, WAV, AAC, M4A, APE, and WMA. However, please note that OpenSwim Pro does not support Bluetooth music transfer. You can upload your music files directly to the headphones using the included 4-Pin Magnetic Charging Cable. For detailed instructions, please refer to our "How-To Video".
Does OpenSwim Pro automatically disconnect from a Bluetooth device when switching to MP3 mode?
A: No, OpenSwim Pro maintains its Bluetooth connection even when you switch to MP3 mode. This allows you to seamlessly transition back and forth between your music library stored on the device and Bluetooth streaming without needing to re-pair your headphones.
What is the battery life of OpenSwim Pro in Bluetooth mode vs. MP3 mode? Does battery life vary depending on use environment (land vs. underwater)?
A: OpenSwim Pro offers up to 9 hours of battery life when using Bluetooth mode and up to 6 hours of battery life in MP3 mode. This is consistent regardless of whether you're using the headphones on land or underwater.
Does OpenSwim Pro come in different sizes?

Additionally, we advise against using OpenSwim Pro in seawater. If your headphones come into contact with salt water, soak them in fresh water for about 30 minutes to remove salt.
Can I charge OpenSwim Pro with the OpenSwim charging cable?

Can I use OpenSwim Pro in seawater?
