We've made a lot of improvements over our first version. Added iPhone support (finally) and a framework that allows multiple apps and watchfaces to run simultaneously.
- brk 15y agoDoes it work natively with iOS, or does it require hacks like jailbreaking? I bought one of the other programmable watches (forget the company name, I think it's a YC company?) that initially claimed iOS support, but the caveat was you had to jailbreak your phone and install some random stuff. Wasn't really feasible for my application.
- erohead 15y agoPebble works natively with iOS 5. We are that YC company!
- brk 15y agoThanks, but I was thinking of InPulse. I bought like literally the first one (still have it somewhere if anybody wants it).
- kefs 15y agoDid you watch the video? This is inPulse (see 0:23) Also, for skimmers, it's under PROJECT BY: > Eric and his team have been designing smartwatches for 3 years. Their first product was the inPulse smartwatch for Blackberry (www.getinpulse.com). inPulse has been covered by Engadget, The Verge, Gizmodo, NYTimes and more.
- brk 15y agoNo, I didn't watch the video until your comment. I prefer to skim a page to get the relevant info, most video demos go way too slow for my preference and waste a lot of time on bits I'm not directly interested in. If this is from the inPulse group I would have honestly expected that to be more prevalent on the page instead of a casual mention in the video. This was presented, IMO, as if the "Pebble" was an all new thing... No mention of inPulse, Kickstarter campaign usually implies "new stuff", etc.
- drivebyacct2 15y agoSlightly off topic but I wanted to repeat this sentiment. Do not ever include information in video or video-demo only. I simply do not watch them. I watched this one because it's gorgeous and I knew I had to pledge, but I almost never ever watch videos online unless I'm on YouTube/Vimeo/Netflix.
- ryanhuff 15y agoMaybe they added it after you skimmed the kickstarter page, but they mention InPulse in text. "Eric and his team have been designing smartwatches for 3 years.
