Android beta app: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/coredevices.coreapp

What should work in the App 🤞

• Connection to Pebble Time 2, Pebble Round 2, Pebble 2 Duo, Pebble 2, Pebble Time Series (Time/Time Steel/Round), and Classic Series (OG/Steel) watches. All watches require firmware > v3.x to connect.
• PebbleKit Android apps may work (this depends on the companion app, subject to modern Android OS limitations around Broadcasts)
• Everything else you would expect!

What isn’t working or built yet 🤦

• Send Text app
• App Localization
• Calendar invite notifications
• Remote timeline pins

Important

If anything isn’t working, and it isn’t listed above as not working, please report a bug in the app! Try to connect to your watch before reporting, so that the app can fetch watch logs (cycling airplane mode on the watch if required to get it connected). We might not get back to you, but we read every report.

Known issues/bugs

• Bug reporting takes 2-3 minutes sometimes (it’s uploading a ‘coredump’ from your watch)
• Pebble 2 Duo will not keep time if you shut it down. You will need to reconnect it to your phone to get latest time.
