You can set alerts for each activity, which can help you

of your environment, and to navigate to your destination.
Some alerts are available only for specific activities.
There are three types of alerts: event alerts, range alerts,
and recurring alerts.
Event alert: An event alert notifies you once. The event is a
specific value. For example, you can set the device to
alert you when you reach a specified elevation.
Range alert: A range alert notifies you each time the device
is above or below a specified range of values. For
example, you can set the device to alert you when your
heart rate is below 60 beats per minute (bpm) and over
210 bpm.
Recurring alert: A recurring alert notifies you each time the
device records a specified value or interval. For example,
you can set the device to alert you every 30 minutes.
