What is the bell sound?

[babygirlshuey]

Does anyone else hear a bell sound ringing during their run?

Half way bell??

[Jullaly Graduate in reply to Ripcurlrana71]

great minds and all that lol

[Jullaly Graduate]

i think it means you are half way through that particular run

It’s the half way sound... so if you’re doing a there and back again route (rather than a loop) you know when to turn round and head back👍

That's useful. I knew what it was but didn't realise that was the idea behind it!

I LOVE the sound of that bell! 🔔Halfway! 😂

My half way bell has disappeared. I've just completed week 2 and only heard it the first two runs of week 1. Any ideas how to turn it back on?

[nowster Graduate in reply to mitzybudgie]

I'll have to check, but I'm pretty sure it's part of the recording with the speech. The app has a single audio file it plays continuously throughout the run, silences and all! (I peeked inside about a month ago.)

[mitzybudgie Graduate in reply to nowster]

Thanks. Maybe I'll try a different voice then and see if that helps

[nowster Graduate in reply to mitzybudgie]

Who did you have at the moment, and which run was it? I'll check.

[mitzybudgie Graduate in reply to nowster]

Its Sarah Millican. I really like having her voice and initially the bell was there but not for week 2 at all.

Thanks

The half time bell is a separate MP3 file which has to be triggered by the app. It's not in the trainer voice's audio file.

Have you checked for updates to the app recently?

[mitzybudgie Graduate in reply to nowster]

I've just checked and the app is up to date. I'm doing my next run tomorrow so I'll see if I get the bell then.

Thanks for your help
