This improvement is in reference to the LAP button. On map view the lap button has another function +the lap button does not have the best touch, and sometimes, although we do want to lap, it is not done. My improvement is the following:

- when a lap has been done, karoo should make a sound (like wahoo) and maybe also a small vibration
- To make the lap, you have to press a few more time (hold the button down for a bit)

With this improvement we would be able to ensure that the lap has been made and we will avoid making laps when we do not want to.

Just to comment on this subject. My 2nd ever ride with the Karoo 2 (just a few weeks ago) produced a 2 lap ride. As I never do laps and am not really sure which is the 'Lap' button, I am at a loss to understand how that happened. I agree with Juan that the lap option should require a longer press and some form of noise recognition to confirm you have activated the lap option.

Hi everyone, we have not seen the request to make changes to the Lap functionality as it is now, but I am glad to hear your input and the reasons for them. I will be forwarding this to our team for consideration.

+1, not only a sound would be really useful when pressing the lap button, also I suggest to show the current lap data (power, hr, elevation, also miss the NP as well) into the laps field (the tab you get when you swipe up the lap menu).

Currently, only the last laps are shown but not the current one

Yes agree should have current Lap in lap drawer and a beep when lap is pressed. And always make the lap button do a lap. It doesn’t when on the map screen.
