    This is great advertisement. I might even buy one. One question tho, do you need bluetooth turned on always even if you dont want notifications to work and just use it as a watch?

      I am not sure actually. But you can disable the connection between gadgetbridge and phone, but still keep the watch paired with the phone: this way you dont get notifs.

      But completely disable bluetooth, i dont see a button for it at least.

      Edit: also sorry if it seemed like an ad, i just honestly wanted to share my experience with it :D

        Ahh, okay then this is fine too

        I didnt mean payed advertisement, i meant great exposure. Genuine experiences are worth a lot more than ads.

          Very true :) And I admit, I am bit of a fan of Pine64 and I hope to get more of their devices in future
