Pebble today announced multiple updates for its line of Pebble smart watches, introducing new messaging options and new health features for Pebble owners.
Pebble owners who use iOS devices are now able to reply to incoming text messages with custom messages instead of the standard canned responses. Custom text replies are available to all iOS users who have text replies enabled from a compatible carrier.
Pebble Health, the fitness tracking app Pebble introduced in December for Pebble Time watches, has a new API that lets Pebble Health stats be added to apps and watch faces. The health tracking feature is also more accurate and is able to show distance in kilometers or miles.
New Pebble Time Firmware 3.9 introduces incoming MMS messages with descriptive icons and text, and it introduces speed improvements for Pebble Time and Time Steel. There's also an improved Watch-Only mode, which introduces better power saving options when the watch battery is critically low.
The update is available through the Pebble Time iOS app, available from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

That being said, I still love my Pebble, it does everything I need and still lasts like 5 days on a charge :)
[doublepost=1454532960][/doublepost]Sure I'll just go swimming with my Apple Watch, heh.
Update: I just found out that only AT&T customers get the canned responses: https://blog.getpebble.com/2015/11/23/iosreply/
