Workout count down alert in the last 5 sec (Fenix3 - Fenix 5)

Hi everyone,

I started using fenix watches 3 years ago. I started with Fenix 3. I configured a custom workout for my TRX exercise. it's basically 1 min active and 30 sec rest. In the fenix 3 , I used to get alert in the last 5 secs of each rep.Now I bought fenix 5, and these alerts are not working. Tried to configure the metronome but it still didn;t provide what I'm looking for. It's more hectic I'd say.

Anyone can help or advise?

I think there have been a few reports of this since the last firmware (7.60) was recently released, although it has been working fine in the past. I'm not sure if the alerts fix in the latest firmware addresses this. https://forums.garmin.com/forum/on-the-trail/wrist-worn/fenix-5-5s/1305906-fenix-5s-5-7-93-public-beta

I'm not sure why there is any difference , But I don;t think that I have configured anything in the workout. This feature was really helpful and it's really annoying that I can't get it to work. Apparently the software is still under testing, so I'll wait until it's rolled out.

I have noticed the 5 sec alerts on workouts is not working in 7.60 also. Is there a way to report it?
