3The Timeline Feature Can Help Organize Your Day
The Time gets Pebble’s latest timeline interface, which lets users instantly check past, present and upcoming events in real-time right on the watch face. The timeline allows users to receive notifications, calendar events, weather, sports scores, breaking news, missed calls, app alerts and more in one place. The Time features tactile buttons so users can operate the device by feel.

With battery life up to seven days, the Pebble Time can give users the information they need for a long time before requiring recharging. The watch uses a magnetic USB cable for charging its 150mAh battery.
7Fitness- and Sleep-Tracking Compatibility
The Pebble Time can be used in conjunction with an activity-tracking app from Jawbone, Fitocracy, Runkeeper or Misfit so that users can track and record their walking, steps, bicycling and sleep hours to monitor their health and fitness goals.
