Good news for our Japanese Pebblers - Pebble Time 2 has received all certifications necessary to be used in Japan! Cost quite a bit of cash but we heard y'all really wanted to follow the rules 😀

One thing I love about my new @pebble is that you can easily control music playback, even during a workout On my Garmin, it was possible but required switching modes each time, annoyingly. To change the volume required 3-5 clicks, versus just one on the PT2 So much better!

Big PebbleOS update today! New in v4.9.171: - Speaker + Touch + RGB Backlight APIs (devs start your engines!) - 1MB app limit - new touch/backlight settings - new emoji (thank you artists!) - improved low-power behavior New SDK is now live ↓ docs links

Haven't posted much about @Pebble Index 01 recently (been...uh a bit in the weeds on PT2 shipping). But lots of progress has been made! Still need to order one? You can do that here 😉 We're in PVT2! Yes, 2 :) The first Production Verification Test (PVT) at end of March exposed two main problems 1) possible ESD damage during assembly was blowing out the BLE amp on some units, 2) a change we made to the mic waterproof membrane caused some units to fail audio testing. We fixed both with modifications to the assembly line. Things seem to be on a good track now with PVT2! When will my Index 01 ship? Our goal is to manufacture the first 2k units by mid-May and start shipping them out. It will take us roughly 3 months to manufacture and ship out all pre-orders, meaning we should be finished by July. As always, these are estimates. Delays may happen! Brushed Silver We are switching from offering a polished silver to brushed silver finish! It looks great - photo below, with lots more to come. Head to to switch colours. Alpha testers Thanks to some brave souls who've been using early versions of Index 01 and reporting bugs, we've crushed a ton of software issues over the last 3 months! Performance and reliability are starting to be really smooth on iOS and Android. Software improvements All open source, of course! - We added fully encrypted cloud backup (optional) - Local speech-to-text is working well, thanks to @cactuscompute + parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3! - You can optionally route audio or transcriptions to a webhook - enabling you to pipe recordings directly from your Index 01 to an agent like OpenClaw - Our lead engineer also added Home Assistant support (because she wanted it herself!!). - Added Beeper (text directly from Index 01!), music control (Android only), Notion, Apple Reminders and Google Tasks integration - Bring your own MCP server Still working on a lot of stuff - dramatically improved UI, more reminder app integrations (Todoist, and more. Tell us - what are you excited to do with your Index 01? Do you have a favorite reminder/todo/notes app that you would like to use with it?
