Add Milestones

A Milestone is a customisable alert within WhatPulse. You can use it to remind yourself to take a break every 60 minutes, or reward yourself with a cup of coffee every 5000 keys you type.

Open Settings > Milestones in the sidebar to see your milestones and their history:

  2. Click the Add button.
  3. Double click on the name of the new line item (so double click on "Milestone Name") and give it a name.
  4. Select the type of statistic on which you want to trigger this milestone from the dropdown box.
  5. Double click on the "Amount" and fill out the amount of the statistics you'd like to have this milestone trigger on.
  6. Optionally, click on the message icon in the milestone’s Actions column to enter a custom message.

That's all you need to set up your milestones!
