Alright the latest update brought us auto pause during workouts when stuck at traffic lights. Thank you!

But now can we work on the eat/drink alert to show during workouts now?

Thank you!

No alerts during workout - this is a long lasting issue, reported it though official bug report once or twice, never got any feedback. Does not look it's being on the list to be fixed. Disappointing…

I have just started using workouts and I was having the same issue. I think I know why. Regular activities counts up e.g 0 to 60 mins. where workout counts down e.g 60mins to 0mins. Eat and drink alerts are counted up to say every 30 mins. Must be that the device is not programed to calculate count downs for every 30 mins. It is the only answer that makes sense I get all other workout alerts like over or under power zone.

Regardless of the reason: hydration and fueling during any activity is important. And during an exercise, when pushing hard, it’s easy to omit. With this bug Edge, as a training device simply does not deliver what it promised (ie remind to fuel).

I agree with you 100%. Garmin needs to fix this. I live in Tucson, AZ and in the summer forgetting to drink can bite you in the butt hard.

Sent a fix ( they call it an Idea)request to Garmin support. We will see what happens. If you have not already done one might think about doing so the more "voices" might get some action. Here is a link to Garmin Support where you can submit ideas www.garmin.com/.../
