At last…

Since the app was broken by the last (3.6.1) firmware update of the Pebble I had little choice… (So you can thank the Pebble team 😉 While I was at it; added some colors for Pebble Time owners, also added the much requested hide option.

Anyways, it was long overdue anyway. So enjoy!

Download Android app:

Download Checky for Android v0.2

Download Pebble app:

You can find it in the Pebble app store (link). Or search for “checky”.

Changelog:

Pebble

– Upgraded to version 3 of SDK (kept everything compatible with Aplite, for older watches).
– Changed communications to ignore faulty NACKs (this is a bug in the SDK).
– Colorized menus and lists.
– Removed local storage on watch (no point to it as you need connection to phone anyway)
– Option to hide unchecked items.

Android

– Upgraded android & pebble SDK
– Updated communication with watch-app
– Removed bluetooth check + permission, this is not needed, as communication goes through pebble-app.
– fixed faulty config (resulting in 2 icons)

Checky is a simple Android and accompanying Pebble application to view and manage checklists.

There’s already a ton of them out there, but none of them work exactly like I want them to (either on the Pebble or Android or both…)

PS: This is my first Android and Pebble app, both are severely flawed, I’m aware of it 😉 take it or leave it…

Android:

• Offline (no internet access whatsover)
• Uses external SD storage, making it easy to backup/copy or manually edit lists.
• Lists are simple text files, every row is an item, checked items start with a +
• app is very basic and could use some sprucing up (don’t count on it any time soon)

Download:

Download Checky for Android v0.1

Can you find it In Google Play Store? Nope, You’ll have to download it here. I’m too cheap to fork over the $25 registration fee…

Pebble:

• Editing (only checking and unchecking item), saved immediately to phone.
• True offline mode (optional) (eg. selected lists are kept locally on the Pebble (4k limit)) (* there is no editing in true offline mode)
  • long-press toggles offline caching.
• 5 items per screen (instead of the usual 3)

Download:

You can find it in the Pebble app store (link). Or search for “checky”.

You can download the original PBW v0.1 here .

 TODO / Wishlist

- better communication (robuster; use ids, commands, stack/queue)
- i18n
- clean up code / project
- put code on github

Checky
------
- update item should be acked (no way to know it was done now)
- error screen as separate window for list so save error can be recovered w/o having to reload list
- print text in list ourselves instead of padding
- list_menu_select_callback should only update one cell not whole list (this might be a Pebble limitation, update speed seems ok-ish)

Checky-Android
--------------
- dirty check (be)for(e) saving lists
- Update list after change of Pebble instead of reload whole list
- do not overwrite original file when saving (eg. rename old > create new > delete old (or keep as backup))
- Changes are not pushed to Pebble (you need to close the Pebble app to refresh)
- remove the onstartup code it should not be needed.
- 2x newline required after items (manual input?) (android 5 / Zenfone2)
