About

A plain countdown timer for any activity, with a beep and a vibration at zero. Garmin has no simple countdown you can drop on a data screen, and the native eat and drink alerts stop firing during structured workouts. This field fixes both. Set a length from 1 to 240 minutes in settings, add the field to any data screen, and it counts down while your activity runs. At zero it beeps and vibrates, then starts over if repeat is on. It keeps alerting inside structured workouts. Good for fueling reminders, run/walk intervals, time-boxed warmups, sauna sessions, parking meters, or knowing when to turn around and head home. Features: - Timer length from 1 to 240 minutes - Optional repeat for recurring reminders - Tone and vibration at zero, including in structured workouts - Works in any activity that supports data fields - No phone, no network, no account, and no special permissions Works on Fenix, Epix, Forerunner, Venu, Vivoactive, Instinct, and Edge devices that support Connect IQ data fields. Free, with no subscription and no account. From RiversideArt, maker of UTC Zulu Time Seconds and Plain Power watch face. If you want scheduled eat and drink alerts with carbs-per-hour targets, our paid Fuel Coach field does that and keeps working inside structured workouts.

What's new

Minor update. The field can now ask once if you want to rate it.
