Feedback on beta Bangle watch

Posted on
  • Initial feedback (AKA my greedy wishlist):

    • Settings app should live at the beginning of the apps list, or let the user order apps as desired
    • Connection between Gadgetbridge on phone and Bangle is flaky - it keeps dropping out (but usually eventually reconnects)
    • Gadgetbridge widget on watch should change to show connection state

    That's it so far. It's my daily watch now since my Asus Zenwatch 3 just stopped working (good timing). I like it :-)

  • Update - connection to Gadgetbridge on phone is very flaky, and quite often doesn't reconnect without manual intervention (me going to settings on the watch and selecting make connectable "no", then make connectable "yes"). This is with a Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact phone.

  • Thanks!

    There's a 'sortorder' field in the JSON. Just tweaked this so in future it should live at the top.

    Do you think you could try removing the Bangle.js from gadgetbridge and re-adding without Pairing? Is that more stable?

    Also, I seem to remember there's an option for automatic reconnects?

    Gadgetbridge widget on watch should change to show connection state

    Sounds like a good idea. I've just added an issue for this
