this is awesome news. I loved the original pebble but moved to the apple watch after pebble's demise.

I am curious what people here use their smart watches for on a daily basis and couldn't live without, other than to check the day/time. for me it's just message alerts, timer, and media controls. just those 3 features on a e-ink screen would make me super happy.

I moved from Apple Watch to Garmin, so I’m not in the market for something like a Pebble, I value the fitness features too much.

But putting that aside, I’d say the essential features for me are notifications, timer, calendar, media controls.
