    I'd love to have eating reminders like Wahoo and Garmin head units can push! Either audio or textual notifications would be so helpful!

    You will be able to set milestones by distance, time or Location using the Auto-Lap feature. 
     For complete details, please see: Karoo 2 - Auto-Lap
     
    Also, as the POIs on the Route can be seen on the TBT cue sheet, you can also consider this as a reminder to eat and Drink once you approach the POI.
     To know about this feature, please see: Dashboard - Adding Points Of Interest (POI)

    Hi Lee,

    thanks for the inspiration on potential workarounds! Will check on the lap by time idea. Even though this only works if you dont use the lap feature for training/interval purposes!

    But nevertheless, I still believe this is a useful and common future on all other devices than the K2. Might be worth considering for the future ;-)

    The auto-lap feature could be something to solve a simple stupid software add that hammerhead already should have done since the amount karoo users that requested it and by the far time they are begging hammerhead to implement this feature.

    I think most of the greatest adds will appear from sided load apps, created by users who are programmers and enthusiasts (like ki2 per ex.)...otherwise, if we are waiting for hammerhead to listen our needs, we can wait sitted.

    Cheers

    @Tiago what are „sided load apps“? Apps added to the Android device? Is there something to see what apps might be relevant to add to the Karoo - kinda k2 app store?!

    @Jewl Kay yes! You can also install aptoide or other android stores to install .apk (like strava, komoot).
    Hammerhead could add an alarm or reminder...it looks so simple to us but too hard for them 😴

    @Andrezj - can't tell if it was you that developed it, or whether it was just an excellent find, but the Karoo Reminder app looks to be exactly what I was looking for
