Pebble Launches Appstore with Over 1,000 Apps and Watchfaces

Pebble announced today that its appstore with over 1,000 apps and "watchfaces" is now available for iOS devices. The Pebble appstore is broken down into six app categories (Daily, Tools & Utilities, Notifications, Remotes, Fitness, Games) to make it easier for users to find specific Pebble compatible apps. The appstore also recommends the best apps and watchfaces of the day, and saves downloaded apps so they can be easily installed to your wearable device at a later date.

Pebble users can access the new appstore through version 2.0 of the existing iOS app. The Pebble app is free to download and is compatible with all iOS devices running iOS 6 or later.

The Pebble blog notes that the Android version of the appstore is coming " very, very soon."

Pebble is also accepting pre-orders for its new Pebble Steel. The new smartwatch is made of stainless steel and features a Corning Gorilla Glass display. It is available in brushed stainless or black matte for $249. The basic Pebble Smartwatch is currently available for $150 via GetPebble.com.
