Pebble Time gets update to let Android users initiate text conversations

Using your Pebble Time before you’re allowed to reply to messages sent to you first. Now, Android users can start text conversations through the Pebble Time watch without pulling out your smartphone. The latest update introduces this new Send Text app, which Android users can access if they have the latest Pebble Time app on the phone and the latest software for the watch. If you have both, you can then just dictate the text to the watch or select one of the pre-written messages to send. It’ll show your contacts alphabetically by default or you can pick your favorite users to send messages to.

Pre ordered Pebble Time smartwatches begin arriving

People who pre-ordered the new Pebble Time smartwatch on KickStarter are starting to receive their kickstarter edition watches in the mail, sometimes even before receiving a notification email and tracking number. The Pebble Time began shipping out the last week of May and once most KickStarter orders are fulfilled, the company will begin selling non KickStarter editions. The Pebble Time Steel is coming to market next month. Users on Android will be able to install and explore the device right away by downloading the new Pebble Time app. iOS users will have to wait for the app to be cleared at the iOS App Store. Stay tuned for a full review of the new Pebble Time and its corresponding OS once we get our KickStarter edition.
