I'm annoyed. I just can't get the #pebble2duo to connect to #gadgetbridge, whichever how-to i try. It'll pair, sometimes. But it won't stay connected for any length of time.

I want the #pebbleTimeRound2, but if it doesn't work with my devices, then it would be a waste. 😕

(And no, I don't want the original app. It's full of non-functioning apps and watchfaces, so I'm not very trusting of the app itself.)

Sigh. Back to my trusty old #HuaweiWatchFit2 I go.

Received my #pebble2Duo and beginning my first tries.

I'm looking forward to the day when we can convert the system language to French and also the units to the metric system.

Also I would like to keep track/history of the step counts. Somewhere. On a self hosted server maybe ?

What a pleasant come-back. Back from the dead, the old-new Pebble 2 Duo 💪💪💪

One of a kind, but hopefully pioneering a lasting saga.

I love the new watch and feel right at home with it - I guess it's really extensible customisation and the nerdy touches that do it for me.

Also, I'm finally back to a smart watch that only lights up when I need it to! The mechanism is a little odd - shake your wrist to make it light up - but any other smart watch has given me a high rate of false positives (lighting up in the middle of the night when turning around, NOT lighting up when I check the time early morning).

There's an SDK available to write your own (https://developer.rebble.io/sdk/), which is also provided via GitHub CodeSpaces if you don't want to run it locally.

Programming is done either in C (for full access to all watch features) or in JavaScript (for watchfaces, with limited access to watch features): https://developer.rebble.io/tutorials/js-watchface-tutorial/part1/

Lastly, the watch's operating system, PebbleOS, is open source, too: https://github.com/coredevices/pebbleos

While the Android app is still a little buggy, it's usable and has access to all Pebble watch faces and apps ever created.

The vibration notification is configurable and can be non-intrusive. The display is quite small, but emails, and text messages are displayed clearly and are readable.

The famous "Dick Tracey" feature is included, too - speak into your watch to respond to texts and emails. Voice recognition either runs on the smartphone or uses a cloud service.
