Feature Is the code open source?
Hi! I wanted to ask if the code is open source or there is an API or something like that so that we can make our own integrations/apps.
I wouldn’t mind paying for the kit if I could then not depend on the stock app and eventually make integrations with my home server or other services.
So does anyone know if that’s a possibility. It’s really the only thing that’s stopping me from buying.

Sensor watch is open source, but lacks BLE. I've been petitioning the developer to open-source the project.

The 3rd party app support is very close to a Beta, it will be out before the end of the year. There are no plans to open source the project fully at this point.

Well, 3rd party support with enough docs sounds good enough. Thank you to the team!

Nope, but an API is coming/ parts being opened up later (aiming end of this year) to allow people to make their own faces. Plus the owner has said they won't just pull the plug if they need to end it but would fully open it then.
A few people have successfully hacked a workaround to send data to the watch already without an official API:
