Pebble Smartwatch SDK to be released in April
Pebble has announced that developers will soon be able to get their hands on a proof-of-concept SDK for its popular Kickstarter project, the Pebble Smartwatch.
Eric Migicovsky, the creator of the Pebble watch, uploaded the products latest update (No. 34) to his Kickstarter campaign page.
He announced to developers that decided to release the SDK "into the public during the second week of April."
This popular Kickstarter project raised an astonishing $10 million (£6.2m) in 32 days selling out of its 85,000 available pre-orders.
The Pebble Smartwatch was shipped out to Kickstarter backers back in January with many features such as e-mail, text and tweet alerts, weather checking and more. Not to forget, it also tells the time.
Pebble will be releasing the software developer kit that will allow developers to create their own "watch faces," experimenting with the multiple app technology.
In the video, Migicovsky, explains that, "theres a high chance that 99% of the APIs will change," whilst they work towards the finished SDK.
Migicovsky has also announced a firmware update (v1.9) next week changing the way users will interact with Pebble, "with this new version Watchfaces are now at the bottom of the window stack."
