Audible countdown and 'last lap' info during HIIT and other workouts!
Really need a 3..2..1..BEEP! Countdown during interval workouts. These workouts should also autolap at each step, so you can see 'last lap' info (pace, HR etc.) for the high intensity section you just did, while you recover (for example).
This would put iCardio a serious step ahead of competitors such as Endomondo!

There is a Zone Audio Alert (chime on zone changes) setting, which could replace the beep, but i don't find it too reliable, as sometimes (music ?) it is not audible. It should have its own volume setting.

Yes, This could be useful. For the moment I use the APP "Seconds Pro" to signal interval transitions and do a normal "outdoor run" with all Voice feedback turned off in Digifit. (Nice)
The Voice Feedback is triggered by "Zone Change" on configured intervals, so assuming one has 2 intervals with same zone, then no Voice Feedback is generated.
Also i noticed that HR messages like "Below target zone" sounds no matter what configuration i use on "Run Voice Feedback Controls", apparently there is an option missing to turn this of in "SPOKEN WHEN TRIGGERED"
So clearly the function of a Interval Timer is not integrated very well in Digifit, there should be a "Beep" option when one configure interval workouts.
Apparently Digifit has another opinion on this, since they didn't took action on this idea.
