Elevation notifications, similar to distance/mileage notifications possible?

Former Member over 8 years ago

Hi all

On my Fenix 5s I have notifications set so every 1 mile I run I get a notification it's a been a mile in distance and the time. I also have a custom alert for every 45 mins to refuel.

I'd like to have an elevation notification for every 500 meters gained, I get a notification. Is this possible? I see run settings -> Alerts -> add new -> elevation but this is only for 'high alert' not for meters gained.

Any suggestions please?

The High Alert is only the first of the elevation alerts. If you keep going, you will find alerts for ascent, descent, etc.

thx - yes I did that however, it appears these are only alerts for when you reach those elevation points. I'd like a recurring alert every time 500m is gained. Is this possible?

You should test the assent/dissent alert. I took that to mean a notification every "1000 ft"
