I’m looking for any suggestions for smartwatch that it similar like Google Pixel Phones with GrapheneOS. Is there such a thing?
Big fan of the PineTime for minimalism and extraordinary battery life, but the Bangle looks compelling. Maybe once the PineTime dies.
PineTime is nice, wearing it right now.
PineTime is everything Foss but is only for simple stuff (notifications, time, media control, pedometer, stop watch.) Had mine for a couple of years now and it still gets updated 👍
There’s AsteroidOS but I couldn’t find any of the supported watches (all quite old IIRC) at a reasonable price.
Gadgetbridge with some proprietary watch is fine privacy-wise (I had an Amazfit GTR3 pro, I needed to register an account with the Zapp app and use it once, but then uninstalled it once I got the required password and used Gadgetbridge exclusively).
Bangle and the Pine Watch are low-res and IMHO quite ugly compared to alternatives from big brands.
Old Pebble if you can find a working one that someone will part with.
How about something more recent? :)
if it existed I would be using it. Garmin is the next closest not total crap “smart” watch.
Idk if it can be called a smartwatch, but I just found out about the sensor watch, and now I really want one. Basically a hackable Casio f-91w
I use the AmazFit Band 7, the last sensibly sized watch that exists it often feels like.
Weather fails to sync, but then it’s probably the least important feature on a watch. The only feature I really wish Gadgetbridge could do that even the official stack can’t is “nap mode”
As a narcoleptic person still recovering from major depression, I wish I could either press a button to silence the watch and set a “smart alarm” for 30 minutes. Even better if it would turn on automatically if it detects me sleeping during the day!
The only other thing GB can’t do is stand in for the phone-side ZeppOS API functionality, but who needs that, let’s be honest!
Fantastic battery life to boot. I have gone two weeks after forgetting to charge it while wearing it almost 24×7!
Also can’t push navigation to the watch, but tracking a route for a walk whole you have the phone with you works just fine. (Neither feature I need)
I’m using an Amazfit bip watch. Is full supported from gadgetbridge.
This. And battery life is amazing.
Have an amazifit too, just found out about this, spent the last hour configuring everything. Looks very promising.
Also, amazifit tools is complaining a bit about not finding zepp anymore but seems that everything still works, including Tasker integration
