Hands-on with Pebble Firmware 2.5; iOS 8 users get better notifications<article>
<section class="page">

Pebble users are getting a few new goodies in Firmware 2.5, including a much better way to handle notifications on their smartwatches.</p><p>
Dealing with notifications on
Pebble used to a hassle. If you had multiple notifications stacked up, you could only wade through them by repeatedly tapping the down button. This often required multiple taps to get through a single message, and if you dismissed a notification on the watch, it would still show up in the notification bar when you took out your phone.</p><p>
The latest firmware update eliminates these nuisances, at least for iOS 8 users. Now, each notification has a little “X” next to it, lined up with the middle button on the right side of the watch. Tapping the “X” dismisses the entire notification, and also removes it from Notification Center in
iOS 8. Pebble then shuffles you on to the next notification, or returns you to the clock.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2687111/hands-on-with-pebble-firmware-25-ios-8-users-get-better-notifications.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
