  • Google has apparently rolled out Pixel 7 support for the Pebble smartwatch app.
  • The final update for the app also makes the decade-old smartwatch brand compatible with future Android devices that support 64-bit apps.
  • The update also improves the reliability of the app's Caller ID function.

The owners of the pebble device will be happy to hear that it is getting a new lease on life. The update to the Pebble app allows it to run on future phones with exclusive support for 64-bit applications.

After the acquisition of the company, support for the app was discontinued. Much of the effort to keep the brand alive was attributed to the Rebble team.

A few days ago, a member of the group revealed via social media that the updated version of the app for the phone was available. Four years after the last update, the app was able to function in some way even though it had been shut down. Improvements to the reliability of the caller ID function can be found in the new update.

Rebble's efforts made it possible for the pebble to keep going. The launch of the Pixel 7 and the Pixel 7 Pro left 32-bit apps out in the cold. The last remaining source of power for the app was cut off so that it wouldn't run on the best phones.

The challenge for 32-bit apps is getting more common. The latest release of the Pebble app makes the device compatible with the Pixel 7 series and ensures that it will be supported on future phones.

You can download the latest version of the app from Rebble. It is signed with the official keys of the brand. It shouldn't be as hard to install apps from the Play Store.
