Bangle.js 1 is now discontinued. Bangle.js 2 is available here!

Bangle.js 1 is an open, hackable smartwatch. 

You can easily install new apps from the web or develop your own using JavaScript or a graphical programming language (Blockly). All you need is a Web Browser (Chrome, Edge or Opera) and you can upload apps or write code to run on your watch wirelessly! Bangle.js is waterproof and AI enabled and comes with Bluetooth low energy, GPS, a heart rate monitor, accelerometer and more.

Apps 

Because Bangle.js is entirely open, you can upload the apps we’ve already developed, create your own, or upload apps created by the online community.

Our app store (at banglejs.com/apps) is entirely free and open. We’ll never share your data with third parties or make your use of our apps dependent on third party cloud services. So far there are over 100 great apps including games, navigation and fitness aids, watch faces, spirit levels, QR code displays and more - and new apps get added weekly!

Please Note: Bangle.js is an affordable Smartwatch with entirely open software, designed to be trivial to write your own apps for.  While the watch is solid and well built, it can not compete with an Apple Watch costing 5x as much, and is not intended to. If you have any reservations we'd advise you to read some impartial reviews like this one first.
