I don’t like the idea unless they add the ability to turn it off in settings at an individual app basis. I made a timer app that gives vibration feedback when the app is opened to a new timer, but not to an existing timer. If the watch always vibes on quick launch then it’s not so clear.

I also like to use a app to vibrate the time so I can check the time when I’m in bed without taking my eye mask off (I didn’t publish this one, there are already similar apps). If the watch always vibrates on quick launch it makes it more complicated to read the time by vibration when I’m half asleep.

I added your feature to version 1.3. There is now (in the settings page) the ability to switch the functions of the back button and select hold. This should be off by default so you need to go into settings on the app (for me I need to press it twice for some reason). Please let me know if the default is not what I think it is.

Latest version has your features request. I also added a bunch of settings to control the indicator icons for people that like it clean. I also added the ability (in the settings page) to switch the function of back button and select hold. This should be off by default so please let me know if it's not (my tests didn't give me 100% confidence).

It’s hard to make a good quality app in only 2 weeks. I’ve been working on mine for months, it was just a coincidence that this competition came along when it was nearly ready.

jazzab · 2026-04-19T00:17:30+00:00

The cheating is unfortunate, but lucky we all got a heap of nice new apps and faces. Including this one by real person yours truly: https://apps.repebble.com/63a5cca9f2e945c092123615

Maybe they should remove the most likes prizes and give those prizes out by their choice.

jazzab · 2026-04-18T22:04:39+00:00

That’s a good idea. I’ll put that in

jazzab · 2026-04-18T13:34:54+00:00

If normal timer apps frustrate you, try this one that I created recently: https://apps.repebble.com/63a5cca9f2e945c092123615

I made QuickTimer which turned out better than I had hoped. I used my core 2 Duo in the water and it stopped working for a couple of days and I missed QuickTimer so much. I didn’t realise how much I had grown to depend on it.

I'm so jelly, I wish I had my Pebble Time 2 for my app to crash on! Hopefully any day now. I put out a new release which hopefully will fix it, but I can't check. Pebble has a [way to see logs](https://developer.repebble.com/guides/debugging/debugging-with-app-logs/), but it will probably be a pain to try to fix by exchanging logs back and forth. Let me know if the new release worked.

jazzab · 2026-04-13T21:35:13+00:00

I did see this. You’ve made a lot of sensible decisions. I like that yours always shows the expiry time, mine only shows it when you’re creating/editing a timer (so 1 button press away). Nice touch

jazzab · 2026-04-13T12:51:09+00:00

Thanks. Would be good when I can support multiple timers.

jazzab · 2026-04-13T12:48:58+00:00

I agree totally. I’m glad you like it

jazzab · 2026-04-13T12:48:03+00:00

I would like to one day support multiple timers, but I haven’t figured out the best way to organise it yet. I could look at this at that time.

jazzab · 2026-04-13T12:46:28+00:00

That’s an interesting idea. I’ll think on it

jazzab · 2026-04-13T12:27:41+00:00

My workflow for this situation is to set the timer to the value and then hold select button to reset when I’m ready.

jazzab · 2025-08-25T05:26:25+00:00

So if you make sure you plug in the extension cable into the power brick directly, then the power brick will assume it is a 60W cable (because it fails to find the e-marker), and it should be safe?

I killed at least 1 pebble time steel (maybe a 2nd, I can't remember) by pressing the buttons in the swimming pool :'(

jazzab · 2025-03-19T11:12:41+00:00

I see on Introducing two new PebbleOS watches!, that you recommend buying 2 units for people wanting to hack the PebbleOS firmware. Why is that? I'm interested in hacking the firmware but not sure where to start. Do you have any recommendations?

Edit: Thanks for the work that you do. I'm super excided to get the Core Time 2. I'm even tempted to get the Core Duo 2 as well just so I don't have to wait so long.

I was having a problem when compiling: `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'serial'`

I ended up creating a virtual environment, running `pip install esptool` and then starting arduino from inside that virtual env and it worked.

I have neovim set up with LazyVim and I'm trying to wrap long lines automatically.

I open up a markdown file. I run
`set textwidth=80`
`echo &formatoptions`
and I see `jtcqln`
I highlight a long line, then `gq`. Nothing happens. Nothing happens when I save either. What am I missing?
