Como podemos leer,
Fitbit mantiene durante 2017 todo lo relacionado con Pebble, incluyendo SDK, Timeline, Firmware, apps, portal de desarrollador y la Pebble Store.
"Fitbit is going out of its way to keep Pebble software and services running through 2017. To be clear, no one on this freshly-formed team seeks to brick Pebble watches in active service. The Pebble SDK, CloudPebble, Timeline APIs, firmware availability, mobile apps, developer portal, and Pebble appstore are all elements of the Pebble ecosystem that will remain in service at this time. Pebble developers are welcome to keep creating and updating apps. Pebble users are free to keep enjoying their watches."
En cuanto a Health, seguirá funcionando normal, ya que es totalmente independiente de los servidores.
"After this update, Pebble Health will continue to work as it does today. Health API data is not dependent on cloud services—it will feed directly into the Pebble mobile app, Apple HealthKit, and Google Fit."
Además, se sigue trabajando para que la app de
Pebble se independice de los servidores para que, una vez éstos se apaguen, podamos seguir disfrutando de nuestros Pebble.
"Our first action to preserve the Pebble experience far into the future will be to update our mobile apps, loosening their dependency on a patchwork of cloud services (authentication, analytics, app locker, etc.). Expect this update in the coming months. The mobile app updates will ensure the operation of core Pebble functions, even with cloud services discontinued—they won’t break functionality."
También se trabaja para conseguir establecer cómo y por cuánto tiempo van a seguir funcionando los
servicios que dependen de terceros (el tiempo, dictado, mensajería...).
"We are currently evaluating Pebble features dependent on third-party services—dictation, messaging, weather, etc.—to establish if and for how long these experiences can continue on. Stay tuned here for any and all updates on this front."
Yo no sé quién está buscando alternativas a Pebble, pero...
¡ahora mismo está más vivo que nunca!
