Gadgetbridge, an app to use your smartwatch without the proprietary brand one.

This is the biggest reason I don't own a smartwatch yet. I want to own my own health data, and not have it locked into Fitbit or Google.

How does this work? Does it have specific supported devices or any smart watch?

[–] cyberwolfie@lemmy.ml 8 points 6 months ago

Specific supported devices, but the list keeps growing.

I use a Xiaomi Mi Band 7. Works pretty well for my needs.
