Google has decided to share the code for the now-discontinued Pebble smartwatch, a beloved tech icon. Pebble’s founder, Eric Migicovsky, is working on a new smartwatch using PebbleOS, adhering to Pebble’s core principles. The move follows Google’s acquisition of Fitbit, Pebble’s parent company. The open-source initiative will allow enthusiasts to modify and maintain their Pebble watches. Migicovsky is developing the new smartwatch with features like an e-paper screen, long battery life, and a simple user experience. The project, sign up available on rePebble.com, aims to bring a classic smartwatch experience back in a fresh and innovative way.
