Metronome available for custom app?

Former Member over 9 years ago

I'm planning to build an app for my 920XT but I want to know if the metronome functionality is available for a custom build app?
Also I've seen that there are some requests for using the metronome during swimming. Might that be possible if used by a custom app or data field?

Regards,

There is no API for the built-in metronome functionality, but you could use the Attention module's playTone() function to play one of the predefined tones on devices that support it. You'd have to develop your own configuration system, and if you wanted to record the activity and display activity data you'd have to build that out as well.

As Travis said, you have to do it yourself in an app.

With a CIQ recording app, you also have to do things like auto lap, pause, auto pause, manual lap marks, etc (based on what you want to support) in the app itself.
