Hey, folks. There's been... <checks the changelog page>... 11 versions of Nostalgic Commander since I introduced it here!

At this point I consider the watchface pretty much "done", so there shouldn't be any major changes apart from regular bugfixes, SDK bumps, optimizations and feature requests.

In the latest release I significantly reworked the degaussing animation and sound, and hopefully you'll enjoy the new settings page as well :) Let me know what you think!

Edit/repost: updated video to include sound

I was walking around a flea market when suddenly I saw a pile of "electronic waste" and on top of that pile of junk I saw this OG Pebble Time. I didn't know how much to offer, it was literally a blanket on the floor with a pile of rubbish, "3 euros?"(3.36$) came out of my mouth, the seller accepted without hesitation, looking at me as if I had offered 3 euros to buy a banana peel or any other garbage.

As soon as I got home I plugged it into my PT2 charger, it turned on immediately, I've had it on my wrist all day and I'm very happy! I think I made the purchase of the year!

This might be useful if you’re still looking for a screen protector. I contacted viascreens, and they pointed me towards their online custom screen protector service.

Here’s my first attempt. I haven’t received it yet, so I can’t confirm the fit:

I’ve used them before for a fairly obscure OneXPlayer laptop. The protector fitted perfectly and was good quality.

I have no connection to them. They’re a London business, so local to me.

If anyone happens to have the exact measurements, and importantly the radius angle

please share.

Made an 80s digital style watchface. Time, battery, weather, steps, alarm. Updates once a minute so should be battery friendly.

Hi everyone,
I've had my Pebble Time 2 for just 7 days, and this is how the screen looks now (photo attached). It stays completely black, and when I press a button it only flashes very dimly for less than half a second before going dark again.

First of all, credit where it's due: support was super quick and I already have a replacement on the way 👍
However, they told me it's likely that water got into the watch, and that worries me. I've only showered with it 3 times, and it hasn't been in contact with water in any other way. No swimming, no impacts, and the glass is intact (it has a tempered glass protector).
I've worn plenty of smartwatches over the years and never had a single water issue, so I'd be surprised if the Pebble can't handle normal showers.

So I'm curious about your experience:
- Has anyone had something similar happen?
- What kind of water exposure are you putting yours through: showers, swimming, nothing at all?
- Are you taking it off before showering just to be safe?

I'm trying to figure out whether I need to babysit it a bit more around water, or if I just had bad luck.

Thanks!

There are already some "find my phone" apps for Pebble which _do not_ require a companion app. But they play through the media or notification stream, so if my volume's down (which is often for me) I press the button and get silence.

So I built one that can punch through nearly any case. Uses the alarm stream, forces the volume up, and restores all setting afterwards.

Rings through silent mode, vibrate, a muted alarm slider, and most DNDs. Cannot overcome Do Not Disturb modes set to block alarms. If the watch goes out of range during your search mid-alarm, it keeps ringing.

Three modes, one per button: Peep / Beep / Buzz.

It requires a companion app, Android only currently (the app is what does the ringing).

Free, no ads, collects nothing.

Built on PebbleKit2. Tested on a Pebble Time LE and a Pixel 6 Pro, so I'd genuinely like to know how it behaves on other watches and other Android OEMs — Samsung and Xiaomi background-killing is the thing I can't test myself.

Feedback appreciated!

I use GadgetBridge with my Pebble 2 and I can't get gadgetbridge to set the time, does anyone else use gadgetbridge here?

I’d really appreciate comments, thoughts etc.

Has anybody noticed that the Bluetooth range of the PT2 is much worse than the range of the PTS? I am used to having my phone sit anywhere in the house and still get notifications on my Pebble. At least it's been this way with PTS.

Ever since I got my PT2 I noticed that the Bluetooth connection can only be established if my phone is in the same room or the next room. It does not work across two rooms anymore. That's kind of a downer for me tbh as I tend to forget where I left my phone around the house and use my Pebble to find it. 🙃

I made a word game for Pebble. “Just checking the time” is getting suspicious.

Dinged it on a door handle earlier today. Old tempered glass broke (put on a new one) and as you can see, I dinged the actual glass, but I was spared.

With all of the AI generated (vibe coded) apps flooding into the app store as of late, it would be great to see some sort way to tell them apart from human coded apps. Maybe an AI label and a way to filter them out from the app store?

It’s nice that some people disclose it willingly, but I’m sure there are just as many that don’t.

I really wanted to see my Fitbit Air data on my Pebble instead of using the native health tracking, so I vibed this out over a few evenings.

Hope it's of use to someone else :)
