Yugh. That's horrible. But I guess we had it coming. Pebble is very hipster. Development "in the cloud". The configuration-pages for the apps are hosted-only, instead of on-device. Still the phone app must relay those messages to the watch, so if that protocol is available, it's possible to ignore the cloud.
