My app that I published 12 years ago is on there, hah.

> One other great thing that Rebble did was in 2017 - they archived and started hosting a copy of the Pebble Appstore, before the servers were shut down. New apps uploaded by developers since 2017 have also been popping up!

Aah, is this how all previous apps were saved and are now available again? That's pretty neat if so!

daemonologist•52m ago
Yes (and they've been available more or less all along from Rebble - they rebuilt and hosted big parts of the backend I believe).

Is that a lie? What about Garmin Watches?

Sure Google/Samsung/Apple Watches are not "Long battery life", because they are not "Always on e-paper screen", but I feel like Garmin Watches are.

Obviously some Garmin Watches are pretty expensive, like Fenix (I have not used it since I switched to Apple Watch), but there are ~200USD watches as well https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/741137/ with 2 weeks battery life, custom apps, screens, and even GPS.

You don't get 2 weeks battery life with GPS. That drops it down to less than a day.

What made you switch to an Apple Watch? I’ve been tossing up between a Garmin Forerunner 955 or an Apple Watch (I have an iPhone SE 2)

I can't find the quote in the original post, so I don't know the context of that statement.

But generally, Garmins don't allow developing and installing 3rd-party apps on their watches

Isn’t garmin connect IQ exactly that ?
