I bought the Amazfit Bip because the format came close to what Pebble was, but I still miss third-party apps and the timeline UI, which made so much sense on a device that focus mainly on telling the time and upcoming events.

Hopefully the folks working on Rebble will make a nice open-source OS that can be ported to other watches out there.

I have a Bip and it is really great, except for the GPS which takes 10 minutes to get a lock and no 3rd party apps.

Everything else is perfect. Although I try to track my runs with it, so it is sadly a big hit against it.

Make sure your aGPS is updated and also that your time is correct (timezone ). I had the same issues ( not 10 minutes but not instant ) , now am getting fix in seconds.
