      @mando Agreed to this, i think it should be optional function to enable Notify out of zone

        @mando I prefer not to have them and during testing myself and several testers voiced their concerns/displeasure over this feature. I think we are in the minority as many users requested this. I would never use this. Hopefully we will have the option in the future. I will keep pushing.

          @Brad_Olwin there is room for this in longer parts of a workout where you might drift away from your target in either direction. But for short intervals it is useless, as you never can switch your pace / HR or whatever in a second just to make the watch happy.

            @Brad_Olwin with you in this one. I hope you can push this one through. Was so happy that Suunto did not had these alerts before.

              @mando yes. I did my first structured workout today and my watch buzzed every single time I went in and out of a zone. It was awful! Plus, I’m rehabbing a knee injury and had walk/run intervals set and I never knew if it was buzzine the start of a rest or just a change in zone so I was constantly checking my watch. I want to be able to toggle the feature on or off as I can see it’s use if I’m trying to do a specific pace.

                I absolutely agree. The constant alerts from intervals then also laps is just too much for me….Please make this an option.

                I know we can put the watch in DND but there really should be an option to turn out of zone alerts off. Just like we already have with auto laps.

                  @deserthike20 @MotherRunner @aiv4r @2b2bff @mando I will convey this to Suunto but I may set up a poll or something here to help gain traction on this. The more that want a change the better chance we have. I will enquire on the field test site first to see if this is planned to be optional and get back to you here.

                      @tobstar since last firmware, you now have the option to disable activity notifications, look for this in the options menu before starting the activity, as they cannot be modified after activity has started.

                        @herlas on latest firmware of Suunto Race 1 there is no option for this. I can only disable all notification completely (sound or vibration). There is still no option for disabling only target alerts.

                        Watches constantly vibrate during the workout and it is very annoying because I cannot differentiate target alerts from interval/lap alerts to track my intervals.

                        It would be very good to see an option to disable target alerts in future updates.

                          @Stanislav-Kuzmin this has been implemented in April already.
