In our last competition, the 60-meter event was held twice. In Athletics.app, once as a sprint event and once as a custom event. Competitors asked if it was possible to organize the second attempt based on the results of the first attempt. Is this possible and how, within an hour?

Definitely!

That sounds like a preliminary round with a final, in which everyone qualifies for the final based on their time.

Add a 60-meter and a 60-meter final for the relevant category, in their events.

Then create two Startgroups: one for the 60 meters and one for the 60 meters final. In the transition rules for that Startgroup, set 0 as the number of heats winners who can qualify and 999 as the number of fastest times who can qualify.
As soon as the 60-meter results are in, you can click on "Determine qualification to final" in the startlist. You will then see that everyone gets a "q". You can then go to the final startlist and make a division based on time. Athletics.app automatically takes the time from the previous round and makes a division based on that.

That is one possibility, but the problem for me is that they are two completely separate events.

There are competitors who only participate in the first attempt (you could remove them from the startlist), but also competitors who have only registered for the second attempt. You cannot place these in a final round.
