Support Wristotle¶
Wristotle is free and open-source, built in spare time on real Pebble hardware. There's no company behind it, no subscription, no telemetry routing usage data back. If it's become part of your day, here are the ways to help keep new features and watch fixes coming — the free ones matter just as much as the paid one, so start there.
Free ways to help¶
All of these are zero-cost and take a minute or less. Honestly the most valuable thing you can do.
Star the repos on Codeberg¶
Codeberg surfaces popular repos, and stars are the simplest signal that the project is being used.
- ⭐ Wristotle Companion (Android) — the phone-side app
- ⭐ Wristotle (watch) — the
.pbwwatch app
Like the watch app on the appstores¶
Both Pebble appstores rank by hearts. A like takes ten seconds and helps other Pebble owners discover Wristotle.
- 👍 Rebble appstore — for microPebble users
- 👍 Core Devices appstore — for Core Devices / rePebble users
Other low-effort wins¶
- Tell another Pebble owner. Word of mouth in the Pebble Discord / Reddit / Mastodon is what brought most current users.
- File a bug. A clean repro at companion issues or watch issues — especially with a diagnostics bundle attached (Settings → Diagnostics) — saves hours of guessing.
- Suggest a feature. The feature-request tracker is open; voting/commenting on existing requests helps prioritise.
- Send a pull request. The repos are AGPLv3-licensed; contributions are accepted under the same terms. The How it works page is the entry point for understanding the codebase.
Buy a coffee¶
Only if you genuinely have spare cash. If money's tight or you need it for yourself, family, or anything else important — please skip this section. Wristotle is free forever, and a star or a like means just as much. No pressure.
If you do have something to spare and want to chip in:
Buy me a coffee Donate on Liberapay
One-off or recurring, your call — Buy Me a Coffee needs no account on the giver's side; Liberapay is ideal for a small recurring contribution.
Thank you¶
Every one of the above — star, like, bug report, comment, coffee — is appreciated. Wristotle exists because the Pebble community keeps showing up.
A specific thanks to the regulars on r/pebble — the alpha testers, the bug-reporters, the feature-request commenters, and the steady flow of kind, encouraging replies through every release thread. v1.0's headline features (confirm-before-send, contact aliases, per-alarm watch/phone routing, voice tasks) all came directly out of those conversations. The project's shape is yours as much as mine.
A quiet thank-you to the folks who've started buying coffees since v1.0 shipped. Wasn't expected; every one has come with a kind message, which is honestly the part that lands. ☕
