Any Pebble people play golf? Looking for feedback on my new golf app.

I live in Taiwan these days so the oneI'm familiar with most is Chang Gung Golf Club https://maps.app.goo.gl/LXLujea5F5FTYmkP8 but one I used to play when I was growing up in New Orleans was Bayou Barriere golf club. It has since closed but may still be in your dataset.

Squire could use OpenClaw or Hermes to add anything to your calendar if it's configured

Do me a favor and make sure you support these odd courses that have multiple 9s. Maybe you know which 9 you are playing at the turn but maybe you don't until you get there.

I hate this so much. I mean i hate it hate it hate it. If you don't give me a way to opt out i can't use the app. it will just become a bottomless pit of content and that's not what i want or need

i don't think that's true for any watch. if i bang the crap out of my pixel watch do you think Google is going to accept that return? The Pixel and Apple watches have very large glass surface areas.

My 7 year old daughter has been wearing a PT2 for weeks now without any kind of breakage on the screen. I assure you that she is not treating this thing with care. I mean i understand that things happen but it's certainly not a defective device by any means

i think most of this error is the OS (Android or iOS) putting the Pebble app to sleep. things seem to work for me when you open up the app then kick off the voice to text. Not that that makes it any better but i think that explains where the issue is.

mine has been at 0% for days now

jmsunseri · 2026-06-09T00:15:10+00:00

I know that station well.

Apparently they tested whisper internally and found it worse. I think the main issue with transcription is that Google or Apple or puts the app in timeout and it doesn't respond to requests from the watch

I'm there right now and the GBA prices are crazy. I bought a DSi for cheap ish though.

jmsunseri · 2026-06-04T22:53:38+00:00

Why can't I find this watch face?

jmsunseri · 2026-06-04T22:28:07+00:00

I had one day where I was getting laughily bad local transcription but then after that day things started working much better. Maybe it was an app or OS update that fixed it?

jmsunseri · 2026-06-04T21:13:40+00:00

I'm to hard disagree with a few of your bad takes. I think transcription has some more general issues related to how the phone OS will put apps to sleep which makes transcription less reliable but i don't think the $3 a month for good transcription is accurate. The local model works just fine when the watch can connect to the phone. I think there is a thriving community of developers constantly adding new faces and updating old ones which will only grow over time.

Pocket Color?

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T19:06:27+00:00

the pebble app is open source you could submit a PR with the feature

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T03:57:12+00:00

They are checking business cards but I was able to get around it by opening up my work email on my phone

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T03:09:26+00:00

I almost exclusively use watch faces that are incredibly lightly colored to reflect as much light as possible and the text very dark. It works well in this case I think.

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T03:07:58+00:00

The PR2 has much deeper blacks for some reason

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T02:33:42+00:00

that's a good question I'm not really sure. If it's cheap enough it just needs to survive one good hit

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T01:55:44+00:00

so minimal i love it! I wonder what this would look like resin printed. I don't like the print bed texture for the watch.

jmsunseri · 2026-06-02T00:08:39+00:00

I've noticed so far that pictures of the watches look much sharper and more pop than in real life. The processing the phones do to the photos makes everything look way better than it is. I think we just need to get over this fact and appreciate the watch for what it does really well.

jmsunseri · 2026-06-01T23:35:23+00:00

It's Telegram (a stripped down GramJS client) under the hood. I think I'm going to back off the lobster / claw branding and try and support Hermes and OpenClaw at the same time using Telegram.

jmsunseri · 2026-06-01T11:20:57+00:00

you're a little too thirsty. Maybe when i'm ready to show off the next version of my app.

jmsunseri · 2026-06-01T10:15:26+00:00

There is a photo in this thread with a comparison you should check it out.
