Disable Hydration Alerts during Workout

bill.cahill

It would be useful if the Nutrition and Hydration alert could be disabled during a workout.  Don't find it useful to be reminded to drink while I'm turning myself inside out on a 3-minute interval Slight smile

I guess one solution may be to create a Workout profile (vs Road/Gravel/MTB profiles I currently have).

Thanks.

    I would have thought someone would have replied by now and I was a bit unsure of the solution as I thought I might be missing something as I rarely use workouts unless weather is bad and I cannot ride outside.

    But all you do is go into your "activity profile". find "alerts" and disable the drinking and eating alerts.

    I tested it out on my ride today using a workout and the alerts never popped up.

    Once you have done this, then just create a new profile by copying the one you have changed the alerts and name it, something on the lines of "Workout" and then you would not have to disable them again.

    I too find them a pain and never use them, they have the annoying habit of always popping up at an impromptu moment and blank the entire screen out.

    And then you get the opposite when your phone is connected to the 530, you get a text message on your phone and all you get is a tiny unreadable message at the bottom of the screen, which eventually leads you to have to stop to read it on your phone or the 530 in case its important, but chances are its just spam.
