How do I make my Sense to vibrate each 5 minutes during Elliptical?

How do I make my Sense to vibrate each 5 minutes during my Elliptical exercise? I've tried everything that I can find and nothing has worked so far. My Versa2 would do this (and it was awesome).

Hello @SteveRhoads and welcome to the Help forum.  Try this.  Choose Elliptical on your Exercise app on the Sense.  There is a tiny "^" at the bottom of the screen.  Swipe up until you get to Laps.  Choose Auto count/Set rule.  Choose minutes.  My Versa 3 has 5 minutes as the default.  If yours says 5, then you should be set.  If you have to spin the wheel choice, you might need to tap on the number you choose to confirm it.  As you back out of the menu, it should say Edit rule/5 minutes.  Keep backing out until you can start the exercise.  Note -- there are other settings in the menu like heart zone notifications (they drive me nuts so I never use them) and the settings to customize your top middle and bottom stats.

I hope this helps.

Thanks! That did it - but the intensity (already set to "Strong") and duration are so much weaker and shorter than my Versa2 (and my attention span) that I was not noticing that it was happening.

Is there a way to increase the duration of the notification? (and how long was it on the Versa2 - that was perfect)

@SteveRhoads   To the best of my knowledge, we can't change those settings.
