Hydratation and feeding notifications in Hammerhead Karoo 2

I find this feature very useful, taking into account the new development options opened by Hammerhead, having a reminder and/or alert to hydrate and feed during the activity. This feature is important and very necessary for those of us who practice long distance cycling, and I consider it ideal for any cycling enthusiast.

There are other cycle computers such as Garmin (among others), which have had this tool for years, so taking into account the great competition between the different companies, the lack of this feature available in Hammerhead Karoo 2 makes it lose the appeal that brought us to buy this product.

  This is one of the features that extensions can address, both VinHKE and my reminder extension allow to set up alerts to trigger based on ride time, distance or energy spent (find them at https://github.com/timklge/awesome-karoo).

  Unfortunately, sideloading them on K2 still requires adb and is rather clunky. Maybe hammerhead will add an app store in the future or a browser that you can use to download the apks on the unit itself or something.
