Pebble Developer Blog

Into the Future

In the months since our last community update, we’ve been setting the table for the Pebble ecosystem’s next major transition. We’re working hard to make sure Pebble users can keep enjoying their smartwatch experience for as long as possible. We’re happy to share the progress made so far with Pebblers today as a part of our continuing efforts to honor Pebble's legacy, ecosystem, and functionality.

We're pleased to announce that Pebble.js has now been published as a Pebble Package. Pebble.js lets developers easily create Pebble applications using JavaScript by executing the JavaScript code within the mobile application on a user's phone, rather than on the watch.

Greetings, Pebble Devs, from our new home at Fitbit!

After last week’s announcement and Dev Blog post, we wanted to share the latest about what the Pebble community can expect from our team’s migration to Fitbit, and what it means for Pebble’s software and services. We want to give you as much detail as possible about our short-term game plan and vision for the future.

Dear Pebble Devs,

We want to thank each and every one of you for your incredible contributions, feedback, feature requests, support, and—above all—friendship these past four years. Because of you, the Pebble smartwatch experience was phenomenal for over two million users in every corner of the globe. We’re closing a chapter today as Pebble shuts down hardware operations, but want you alongside us for a new adventure with Fitbit.

Things have been a bit 'quiet' recently, but we're back with another fresh Pebble SDK! In this release we've included one of the most frequently requested APIs, exposed the raw HRM sensor value, released PebbleKit 4.0, plus added an exciting new BLE HRM mode.

We're incredibly excited to announce the first public beta of the Pebble SDK 4.2. This is the first time that developers can experience the new 'Emery' platform which is specifically created for the upcoming Pebble Time 2.

The latest 4.1 releases of the firmware, mobile apps and SDK bring support for the new Pebble 2 smartwatches, which have started appearing on the wrists of developers and reviewers around the globe.

If you’ve been living under a rock, or have just been sunning yourself on the beach for the past week, you might have missed the launch of Pebble OS 4.0. This new version introduced some fantastic new features, such as the updated health app, timeline quick view, app glances, Rocky.js and a new system launcher.
