New-ish app for pebble smartwatch

Hey, not sure how big the number of pebble users is still, but with the techy aspects of HA being quite obvious, I wouldnt be surprised if there were still quite a few people keeping their pebble alive as well :slight_smile:

Anyway, I yesterday accidently discovered that there is a rather new app available via the rebble app store. Contrary to the other (old) apps it actually works, and doesn’t require legacy API access. Anyway, here it is:

It’s pretty simple at this point in time (e.g. the sensor list for me is completely unusable as some of my integrations create dozens of sensors), but a quick light switching or script triggering it’s working fine.

One thing that supposedly works, but for which I don’t have the HA setup to go with yet: “newer” pebble watches had built-in microphones, and the app seems to support that in combination with HA. Pretty amazing, as it completely circumvents the whole “how good does a mic need to be to cover a whole room” challenge.

Is there anyone in here who is already working with the app and has the microphone working with the new HA voice stuff?

that’s it, just an FYI :slight_smile:

p.s.: I have no connection to the person(s) who built the app, I’m just happy it exists

Hi there,
I did install it and connect successfully. I am missing some documentation somehow as all my sensors, lights etc are empty. Any advice?

And my microphone works it recognized my speech but never takes an action.
Need to dive deeper into this.

For the microphone to work you need the rebble subscription, there is unfortunately no way to send the recorded voice locally (within your own network) directly to HA for processing.

I mostly use it with scripts, that is the most reliable option for me from playing around with it a bit.
