The company is seeking volunteers to try the new hardware, software, and mobile apps. The most interesting detail about Core Devices starting its beta test program is that it’s not limited to those who preordered the new watches. Migicovsky revealed that the company’s new iOS and Android mobile apps are also designed to work with older smartwatches, including the Pebble Time (both the Steel and Round versions) and the Pebble 2. If you still have any of those models on hand, you’re encouraged to join the beta program to put the new app through its paces. Even if you don’t have any interest in testing Core Devices’ new hardware or software, this is great news for fans of the original Pebble watches who have had to rely on sideloading old versions of the company’s mobile app to keep them running after Fitbit ended support back in 2018.
