This release adds support for 15 new and 8 experimental devices. The charts, workout details and device list also get a refreshed design.
Zepp OS devices can now sync music, maps and voice memos to Gadgetbridge over Wi-Fi (no Internet access), and navigation instructions are available on more devices.
There are also many improvements to workouts and Health Connect, and fixes across many of the supported devices.
This release adds support for a wide range of new smartwatches, headphones, scales, and other devices. Garmin support receives a particularly large set of improvements, while the dashboard gets more flexible widgets and charts gain several new health and fitness metrics.
There are also improvements to navigation, workouts, weather, notifications, and device reconnection, along with many fixes across the supported devices.
We recently noticed that the main F-Droid repository, where you normally search for apps to install, contains what appears to be a duplicate of Gadgetbridge.
The app in question (which we won't link to, to avoid adding to the confusion) is listed with the same name and icon as the real Gadgetbridge app, while its author, description and screenshots are different.
We have no reason to believe that this was done with malicious intent. However, we did not review the changes introduced by this app and we think this is a good opportunity to share a few words of caution.
This release adds support for a wide range of new smartwatches, fitness trackers, headphones, bike computers, and other gadgets. Garmin, Huawei, Xiaomi, and Health Connect integrations receive numerous improvements, while new charts, navigation support, and device controls make Gadgetbridge more useful across a growing number of devices.
As Gadgetbridge continues to grow, so does the community of people contributing to it, and the range of tools they use. Recent advances in AI-assisted software development and reverse engineering have created new opportunities for contributors, but they have also raised important questions about code ownership, legality, licensing, quality, and long-term maintenance.
This post introduces our new contribution policy and the expectations we have for everyone who contributes to the project.
