Yesterday, Pebble watch software was ~95% open source. Today, it’s 100% open source. You can download, compile and run all the software you need to use your Pebble. We just published the source code for the new Pebble mobile app!

They honestly lost me with the fitness platform they were developing with the hardware they tried launching before they got bought by Fitbit.

I’m too baked into my Apple Watch to use a Pebble today. I don’t have any of my old watches. I would not mind a circular Apple Watch. I loved the Pebble Round.

The founder explains in this blog post about the original failure of pebble, and why pebble shouldn't have focused on fitness.

They're coming back as a tool/toy for the enthusiasts who want to tinker.
