Hi, thank you for the info. Yes, I keep my Pebble connected 24/7 and I noticed that before battery lasted almost two days, but now it hardly makes it to the night. I don't use Android apps, although I have installed a few. The only app I keep connected all day is Mitakuuluu2, which might be also the problem. It could also be the latest SailfishOS update. Since the entire OS is continuously evolving and most "useful" native apps are in a pre-alpha state, its hard to say what causes what when you have a dramatic change in battery usage.

In case it has to do with SkippingStones app, I wonder if this battery issue would improve slightly if it would operate as a daemon working in the background instead of having the app opened all the time?

The continuous BT connection between Pebble and phone should not be the problem either, as I used to have a bluetooth audio streamer connecting my jolla phone to my hearing aids 24/7 and it never drained my phone's battery, even when I was listening to music during long hours.

Anyway, I hope this app keeps being developed, as it is very useful for those who cant hear, access, or look at their phones during certain times of the day but we don't want to miss important IM/Text/Emails, etc.

Has anybody considered porting the Android app to Sailfish? Is that a proprietary app or they use open source? Thanks

It is proprietary. Additionally it won't work in the Android runtime as it doesn't support Bluetooth.

On the other hand the Store part is web and runs in WebView.

Hi.
I've sent the new Pull Request to main repository https://github.com/ruedigergad/SkippingStones/pull/5

New feature - "Show Name from adressbook for PhoneNumber in incoming call message"

Please check up how it works on your devices.
Package for test is here

Not working for me. However, since most of my contacts are imported, I can't access them in the phonebook (from the command line). Probably the same problem.

Talking about that, just found a PBAP Sailfish patch for obexd, may help with phonebook extraction.
https://github.com/nemomobile-packag...sailfish.patch

Also seems it is maybe already applied in 1.0.5.16?

Hmm. This is strange. Did you run SkippingStones from command line or using icon from screen?

Cool, thanks a lot.
Merged it but without testing it.
I don't have time for this these days so I was just doing the bare necessary, right now.

I've been using the app (the version in openrepos) for some time. It works very well so this is a thank you post.
Only issue for me is that when someone calls, the pebble keeps vibrating even if I took the call and am speaking which is a bit disturbing

I confirm this problem. I'm going to try to fix it.

vasvlad, I don't know if you can achieve this but:
When the phone rings and when you press the down button once, it will go to silence. Pressing down the second time will hung up/dismiss the call. (And what about picking up the phone? It is working on the iPhones though...)

I can't find how I can mute incoming ring
