#2iOS only for now. Although they did tweet an Android screenshot on Friday. Consistently failing every deadline since Kickstarter days :/
However, kudos to the team, they deserve it for all the hardwork. I'm an early KS backer and they've delivered far beyond my initial expectations. Can't wait to check out 2.0 and appstore!

As long as they deliver quality content I'm fine with companies delaying things. I'd rather have awesome stuff built compared to meeting every deadline.

Except they said it would be launched today. And never gave a hint the android would be delayed. It's like saying we're meeting steve for lunch at noon, and then I show up at noon and say you can't come, it's only me and steve.

#5As the early adopter of Pebble in my group of non technical friends I was always the one that people came to asking how they could install more apps on their Pebbles, and I had to guide them through the process of downloading and installing from the website in Mobile Safari. Now that its a one touch process they'll be able to do it on their own.

Shit happens. They'll deliver.

#7Now if only Apple would approve apps to work with them. I have the integration done, it's approved and whitelisted by pebble for their MFI program, and Apple rejects it for not being in their MFI program. Thanks Apple.

#8So does this mean that all purchases on the iOS Pebble App Store have to go through the iTunes App Store and thus Pebble pay a cut to Apple ? Because iTunes App Store T&C say all purchases go through them, right ?

All watch apps in the Pebble App Store are free. There are no purchases in the Pebble App Store.
However: It's common for a watch app to require a "companion app" that runs on the phone. The developer can charge for their companion app through the iTunes App Store and/or the Google Play store. Then Apple/Google take their usual cut (and Pebble is not involved in the sale at all).

#10I wonder what % of their users are on Android. Everyone I know who owns a Pebble is on Android. Perhaps that is the minority?
