Pebble was bought out by Fitbit, who got bought out by Google. I had the kickstarter Pebble and felt Eric did an awesome job. But really it was the Apple watch that killed Pebble in the marketplace tbh.
And, from what I recall, selling was the best option. They over extended themselves with the pebble color and steel and we’re going to go out of business anyway. I really miss my pebble though.
Although, what’s the worst that happens if Beeper dies in a couple months? Your bubbles turn green on iOS.
Media quality between platforms is finally getting addressed with Apple adopting RCS.
Only real gap is cross-messaging-platform end to end encryption, which is also on the roadmap for RCS. And if you’re really worried about security, handing over your iCloud credentials to a third party probably isn’t a great idea anyway.
I was interested in Beeper until I saw that it was run by the guy who ran Pebble.
Massive red flag for me. This’ll be abandoned just like he did Pebble…

Isn’t selling it abandoning it?
