I was able to pair it with GadgetBridge by pretending it was a Colmi V79. Most of the functionality worked - I was able to see heart rate, steps, change some settings etc. I've requested GadgetBridge support which should make it possible to get notifications etc.
Proper GB support and this is seriously attractive.

Get a BangleJS2 and you won't need to charge it on a bus.
2 weeks between charges. GadgetBridge is the mobile app. It's more expensive, true: £76. The battery is replaceable, though, so you might have to buy fewer.

Pretty wild that the author didn't set up app notifications. Getting specific notifications from specific people on my wrist is a big part of the reason I use a smartwatch. But to each their own.
It'd be pretty cool to get a significant use case of my pricey pricey Garmin for ~CAD$40.

I'm the author. I've now set up notifications on the advice of just about everyone. It's pretty cool!

Happy to say the latest nightly does support notifications. My wrist is buzzing with action!

A phone for the price of a couple of pints? £16? Two pints? Very London of him to assume that’s the price of a couple of pints. Actually unreadable.

This article was right up my alley. I've been considering buying a cheapo smartwatch. I suppose this one couldn't be used as a mp3 player for jogging though.

Heh, of course it has a knock-off UI too.
Please check in with an update after 6 months.

I just looked that up, that is insane. As described "Spartan" but really cool

Oh, your user name. Now I get it.
Does this mean it's basically fully supported with the core features, including hands-free? Thanks for being the type of person that adds device requests to the repo, I only browse for devices already fully supported.
Is there a dedicated profile in GB or are you still spoofing the 79?
And for the most important question of then all - Does 2048 come with the standard 4x4 grid only or is there optional sizes for those long, chill games of

What do you mean, specific notifications? Like an allowlist or something? Where, in android, the companion app or GB?
I'm genuinely confused.

Not if you order 50 or more!

Most Garmin watches do this and they offer a modern featureset.

Love it.

I really like the Interactive Relationship Graph on your site. Reminds me of when I used to work with graph databases and could visualize all the information in the database as a handy graph of nodes and relationships.
