14 DAY TRIAL // Well-known for its wearable devices, Pebble has just made available a new firmware package developed for its smartwatch models, namely version 2.9, which includes a few new features, fixes, as well as improvements.
Specifically speaking, this fresh update resolves the excessive vibration when receiving iOS calls, allows changing display language back to English, and includes support for a new feature: Android - Actionable Notifications.
This new addition can be enabled from Pebble mobile application > Main Menu > Notifications > Notification Responses, and you can set up to five custom messages that are to be replied by SMS.
To be clearer, the next SMS received by your phone will be displayed on the Pebble watch along with a black-lined icon on its right.
Now, if you press that, you will either be able to select one of your templates or scroll through emoticons – afterwards, just hit send to reply to your contact directly from your smartwatch.
As for applying this release, first check your Pebble’s serial number, as the producer has provided 3 different files: one for watches with Serial Numbers (SN) starting with Q, one for devices with SNs starting with a numeral, and the last file for Pebble Steel devices.
Depending on your phone’s OS, install either Pebble iOS App 2.6 or Pebble Android App 2.2.1, save the package appropriate for your watch model on your smartphone, open it using the Pebble application, follow the on-screen instructions for a complete and successful upgrade.
With this in mind, from the links below, click on the one best describing your desired firmware version, as well as your device model and SN, and carefully apply the update on your Pebble SmartWatch.
