Why We’re Bringing Pebble Back
Eight years later, you still can’t beat a Pebble

** It's happening!! **
We managed to convince Google to open source PebbleOS. Took a while, but they just did it today! github.com/google/pebble
With that, we're bringing Pebble back! I blogged about it - ericmigi.com/blog/why-wer...

I was on a flight without internet back from HKG on Saturday. After we landed, the woman next to me 'they shot another person in Minneapolis'. My heart sank...
These horrific events prompted me to post my thoughts as a Canadian in the US right now.

(I wrote a draft of post in early 2025. I picked it up and decided to publish it today, hence why it is more about ‘me’ than the current horrific news of the day)

Just posted my latest podcast episode - my chat with the Clicks Communicator founders.
We got into fav BBM memories, why a physical keyboard makes sense in 2026 and what the plan is for software (unlocked bootloader??)

If you double click Index 01, instead of saving the memory it does a web-grounded Gemini call.
I use it occasionally to look something up while reading or watching stuff, the answer pops up on your Pebble (or other watch) a few seconds later. No need to get out of the moment!

working on a piece about Pebble and its ecosystem versus what supplanted it and put together this header image of a handful of apps/faces and it just makes me irrationally angry at Google and Apple for how badly they've both blown cultivating ecosystems of wearable software

In a time when so many tech execs want to consume the world it’s really refreshing to hear @ericmigi.com ask “what if smart watches were fun?”

iPhone Pebble watch users will finally be able to reply to all notifications! At least in the EU...thanks to the DMA
Someone sent me more details about Apple's AccessoryNotification SDK - it will be region locked to EU. But the upside is that it has an API for responding to notifications, finally!
