I’ve been looking to replace my fitbit with a Pine Watch or similar. I wasn’t able to determine the Pine Watch’s compatibility with generic android apps from their website.
(And while I’m quite comfortable hacking on my own devices, they were out of dev kits last I checked.)
If you use one, can you comment on how well it integrates with the Android ecosystem?
In particular, I’d like to be able check my glucose monitor’s output from my watch. My CGM already provides a general android smart watch widget, but since the Pine Watch is kind of its own thing, I’m uncertain if it’d work.
If you can confirm or deny the functionality of general android widgets, that’d be super helpful for me.
If not, no worries. I’m just hunting for someone with hands-on experience to pose my questions to.
I switched to a PineTime watch from a FitBit about two months ago. I use a Pixel with GOS and no play services.
In my experience the PineTime is only good for heart rate monitoring and step counting, because so far that’s all mine has been able to do. The PineTime is nice for what it does and as a watch, but if you want more health monitoring look elsewhere.
