My guess is that Pebble team is still not fully ready to expand channels. In the US i think only Best Buy is carrying it in physical stores.
Upgraded to v1.13. All notifications I enabled on the iPhone show up on my pebble, as in ALL! I had to disable notifications from my Google+ account or my wrist would have been vibrating all day! No complaints about the upgrade, except maybe all the hoops I had to jump through to get it. Also, I'm still having problems with connections to my HTTPebble app. Some watch apps still disconnect often...
For those of you guys receiving 2 notifications even though only one is sent and prompted by/from the source. You can delete the other pebble connection registered on your bluetooth list. The recent Update seems to make a duplicate of pebble's connection name. I was wondering awhile ago that i always get 2 text messages though only 1 message was sent by the sender. The culprit was that the iphone was connected to 2 pebble connection under bluetooth after all.
Yes, notice this one also. There are 2 pebble at my iphone bluetooth, the 2nd one has a LE suffix. But unlike you iam not recieving 2 notification. Wierd .
Hi @iseedots. Thats 150usd (shipping to PH is free). Then customs duties+taxes around 1.7k. So in peso, that's around 8.2k. There were a few people selling it for 8k and some 7.5k online, but right now its kinda difficult to score one locally. I ordered mine online because i didn't find a black one in Sulit.
I also got two BT devices paired for my pebble, and I also don't have that double notification issue.
I think you're supposed to have 2 pebbles attached to your iPhone's bluetooth, the "pebble": handles the watch faces and other apps, while the "pebble-LE"; handles the rest of the notifications. I read this somewhere while i was trying to upgrade to v1.13 but, for the life of me, I cant find the link to the article. Sorry.
+1 Sleepdoc. I paired the LE part when I upgraded to the newest version, when I enabled iOS7 notification compatibility.
Here's a direct quote from a CNET article: "The new Pebble software update also unleashes Bluetooth LE connectivity, which has been latent in Pebbles. Pebble connectivity has been made, previously, via a standard, higher-bandwidth older Bluetooth connection. Smart Bluetooth, which is in the iPhone 4S, 5 and 5S and is becoming standardized through Android phones slowly but surely, is useful for a lot of fitness trackers and devices with background syncing, but according to Migicovsky the Pebble will keep using both forms of Bluetooth at once for the time being." link to the CNET article: Pebble reboot: Smartwatch gets iOS 7 upgrade and new SDK with apps, but no new hardware | Wearable tech - CNET Reviews
Good day guys, does pebble work on note 3? I've read somewhere its having issues and also will there be pebble 2 coming out? i dont like galaxy gear because of its battery life and its not waterproof
No issues naman. Sometimes, you'd need to restart the pebble pero bihira lang, like once per 2 weeks or something. Works great with pebble notifier and pebble dialer.
Found out that the Pebble Dialer sometimes causes the watch to hang because of the quick change in font size. Just wait for it a bit. The Pebble will fix itself after 3-4 mins
Hmmm. Thats pretty weird. Because when im connected with these 2 pebble, i always get 2 messages both for a text message and notification prompts on the watch. I already deleted the old "pebble" connection and left the pebble-LE alone. Is there a way to have it back on my bluetooth list?
Update. "Pebble" connection now appears on my BT list. All i did was i "forget device" the pebble-LE and paired my phone once again with pebble watch. Text message doesnt show twice on the watch anymore. So its probably just a bug on my case.
hi guys, planning to buy one. is this advisable for heavy users(knowing that 5S has short battery life)? does the bluetooth connection affect your battery that much?
As per experience, it doesnt affect the battery of my iphone that much. I can still last a day with a single charge on moderate texting, occasional surfing, few minutes of calls and games and bluetooth on the watch for the whole day. Pebble uses a low energy bluetooth functionality. So it wont be a battery hog as most may seem to think of.
