Why Pebble?

Always-on e-paper screen (it’s reflective rather than emissive. Sunlight readable. Glanceable. Not distracting to others like a bright wrist)
Long battery life (one less thing to charge. It’s annoying to need extra cables when traveling)
Simple and beautiful user experience around a core set of features (telling time, notifications, music control, alarms, weather, calendar, sleep/step tracking)
Buttons! (to play/pause/skip music on my phone without looking at the screen)
Hackable (apparently you can’t even write your own watchfaces for Apple Watch? That is wild. There were >16k watchfaces on the Pebble appstore!)

Gadgetbridge and Internet Helper (piefed.blahaj.zone)

I get that this is a niche within a niche within a niche situation, but has anyone had luck getting apps that need internet working with the internet helper app? I am running graphene and the latest gadgetbridge nightly along with the most recent internet helper build. I can install and manage apps, push weather to the built-in watch app, etc., but regardless of what settings I've tried, apps don't seem to be able to reach the web. I guess my first question is does this work for anyone? If so, any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

Hmmm can't say I've tried this actually, I like gb for the pure offline capabilities.

Have you tried multiple apps? // which ones have you tried?

!pebble@lemmy.ml seems to be the active Pebble community. Might be worth asking there.
