Personal news: I just got my reordered Pebble 2 Duo send to me and I discovered that it’s currently not possible to use it with SailfishOS.
I found GitHub - abranson/rockpool: Pebble client application for Sailfish OS but after Bluetooth paring the service is still not connecting to the device.
This is OT here, but there isn’t yet a thread for Rockpool on this forum.
@abranson has recently updated the Rockpool page on Openrepos saying -
The following features are not yet implemented: Support for Pebble 2 watches. The new models only support Bluetooth Low Energy, and Pebble's BTLE protocol is not implemented in Rockpool. Fitness features such as step counting and sleep tracking work on the watch, but the data is not downloaded to Rockpool so there's no long term data or graphs of your activity. The heart rate monitor is not supported, though neither is the watch that has it.
How well does Kotlin work on SailfishOS?
libpebble3 is a kotlin multiplatform library for interacting with Pebble devices. It is designed to do everything that a Pebble/Core watch companion app needs to do, except for the UI and specific web services.
Could the Sailfish community help to add one more platform to the library?
I also tried the official app in AAS with the workaround to switch Bluetooth from host to AAS.
I’m currently stuck at the app crashing and not finding the Bluetooth setting in AAS.
Well, not the best technology suited for Sailfish but yeah it’s doable. @flypig and @thigg “ported” java application and the procedure is well explained at the beginning of flypig’s diary
Pebble Watch Software Is Now 100% Open Source, including the companion app.
