Feature Request: Custom Alerts (HR, Power, etc.)

It would be nice to have alerts (visual and audio) as to things like:

• High HR
• HR (above zone for a certain time period)
• Power (below zone)
• Power (above zone)
• Power (above a zone or specific number for a certain period of time, e.g., "Alert me if I do >450 watts")

There are other options... such as high/low cadence. 

There are so many ways that this could be useful -- triathlon, TT, road racing.

Garmin products have a feature similar to this.  But they mainly seem to be triathlon focused (e.g., appear to be largely focused on steady state efforts).  Karoo could quickly exceed Garmin's capabilities here.

  This would be a great app to set up custom nutrition and hydration alerts. I could stop wearing my watch.

  Just came from Garmin world into the K2 ecosystem. This is definitely an area I miss on my Garmin Edge.

  • Ability to create custom alerts (with audio) (by time or by distance) 
  • Ability to set HR Max alert (with audio). This is specially useful as most of sports tracking devices (watches, cycling units..etc) have this capability and this is a must have to avoid us from dropping dead on the side of the road.

  Is there any product manager from Hammerhead looking at this? I just hope no one gets a heart attack from lacking this feature.

  Any news here ? I definitely agree with these considerations. Especially during structured workout outdoor, is indispensable to have audio alerts for signaling when power goes far from desired target. It was definitely one of the most disappointing findings when I switched to Hammerhead and it should be relatively easy to incorporate. I'm actually very surprised to see that this post hasn't received any follow-up

  Yup no follow up... I guess Hammerhead is not so different that the other big boys out there... Once a brand grows to a certain dimension then it seems they stop listening to their customers.
