Smartwatch Tools for Pebble for Android
The app needs to be open on the phone before it'll work. Kinda pointless since I can just open what ever I wanted on the phone anyway if that's the case. This seems to be the case with these remote control apps, not necessarily the devs fault, but a limitation of the pebble software.
I wanted to use this to start and stop recordings during a meeting, but it does not activate from my pebble time. It does work in test mode through the app on the phone though. RUBBISH!
Shows "disconnected" no matter whether the watch app is installed or not
I was expecting more from that app. I.e to have a full dialer, but it can only call one number. So you can get more for your buck.
Really easy to setup, all I need is setup the official Pebble app first. Looking forward more features from developer.

This tool has some promise and is definitely a good idea. Unfortunately it's very crude at this stage, only letting you pick three actions your watch can perform, one for each button. I'd really like an app on the watch with an actual GUI which allows me to pick, then perform the action. It does function for me with the phone app running in the background. I really wanted to be able to set my phone to silent mode remotely with my watch. Unfortunately the volume control action (which is only up or down, not both...) does not function with my phone (Note 2). I'll keep it around for the useful feature of ringing my phone remotely to find it when I've lost it, though.
