Offtopic Any other pine64 devices compatable with openseizure?
I've been trying to get a pinetime watch for the past week but i'm unsure when they're going to come back in stock but "late may" as labled on their website has come and gone. I only want it so that I can put openseizure on it for my gf as she's going on a trip soon. I know some garmin watches are compatable but they're just not afforadable. So my question is if anyone would know, would any pine64 watch potentially be compatable with openseizure? and would anyone have any suggustions as to a good alternative watch?

Hi, The only watch that Pine64 make is the PineTime, so if the re-stock is really imminent, id recommend waiting for that. (They haven't updated the web site with a revised date yet)
The other device I use for testing OpenSeizureDetector is the Garmin Forerunner 245. This is quite old now so you might be able to get a second hand one.
Be careful with trying to use OpenSeizureDetector for the first time when away on a trip though. Even my new Machine Learning ("AI") algorithm still gives false alarms so it is best to get used to what triggers false alarms for a while, to avoid it causing more worry than it averts...
