I believe that many people training for sports would benefit if these separate countdown options could be chained. E.g. so that the application would give a short beep after every stage and the user sets off the alarm after the last phase.

This function would allow to to formulate training sessions such as:
1. 2 min activity
2. 5 min rest
3. 4 min activity
4. 5 min rest...and so on

My old well served Timex Ironman watch has 9 of these stages and I'm using this function on weekly basis.

In addition to the code, this function would require only a 'Chain' button to the user interface. And of course, more stages (9 of them) would be nice!

I would like to see this function also as all the current timers cannot do this

Thank you all for your suggestions. I'm planing to do some major changes to the countdown timer. Unfortunately at this time I cannot yet say when they will be ready as I have some other projects too. But I will do it... eventually.

At the moment I'm having just several ideas, some of which have bee already mentioned. I wouldn't want to be to specific, in case I cannot implement them all. But I am looking into all the suggestions given here.

Cheers
