Pebble Update Adds 'Do Not Disturb' Mode
Pebble Update Adds 'Do Not Disturb' Mode
The Pebble smartwatch just got a nice update that offers a "do not disturb" mode and better support for notifications and alarms.The update comes just a month after Pebble received a major overhaul for iOS 7 users, including full notification support.
The new update tweaks iOS performance, sending notifications more quickly from iOS to the Pebble. The update also improves how notifications work on the smartwatch. You can now easily choose if you want to receive all notifications on your smartwatch, just phone calls or turn notifications off.
This notification control plays well with the biggest feature, a new "do not disturb" mode that lets users set a period of time when notifications will be off. This is great for people who sleep wearing a watch and don't want to be roused by a vibration on their wrist. As someone who sleeps with my Pebble on a nightstand, the vibrations in the middle of the night can still be a nuisance, so this is a great new feature.
Pebble also improved its alarm app and now you can create multiple alarms, toggle an alarm to be on or off and edit existing alarms. There's also a new "snooze" alarm, for people who want to put off dealing with their alarm.
To update to the latest version of the Pebble firmware, just open the iOS or Android app and click the update button when prompted.
