Google open-sources the Pebble OS


The source code for the Pebble operating system in now open, to support the volunteer community maintaining Pebble watches.

This is part of an effort from Google to help and support the volunteers who have come together to maintain functionality for Pebble watches after the original company ceased operations in 2016. This repository contains the entire OS, which provides all the standard smartwatch functionality – notifications, media controls, fitness tracking, and support for custom apps and watchfaces – on tiny ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. From here, we are hoping this release will assist the dedicated community and volunteers from the Rebble project to carry forward the support for Pebble watches that users still love.
