This is the companion (and installer) app for Dashboard for the Pebble smartwatch family.

All toggles can be re-ordered using the Android app. You can also schedule a toggle to occur at regular intervals using the Pebble SDK Wakeup API by using the Events screen.

This app uses the Device Administrator permission. This is used to enable the ability to lock the phone from your Pebble watch.

Using this app you can control:

Wi-Fi
3G/4G Data (requires root)
Bluetooth
Ringer mode
Auto Sync
Wi-Fi Access Point (Tethering) mode
'Find phone' sound
Lock Screen (after granting Device Admin status)
Auto brightness

You can also view:

GSM Network name
GSM signal strength
Wifi Network Name
Phone battery level
Phone free space

Other features:

Notification when the phone has fully charged
Quick start to a toggle of your choice

Note on permissions:

Location permission is requested related to making Hotspot toggle work on newer Android versions (if you don’t need that feature, just revoke/not-grant location if you want). This is also what draws in GMS and causes the NonFreeDep AntiFeature.
INTERNET is used for fetching the text in the 'Developer News' card on the main screen

Anti-Features:

NonFreeComp (the application includes non-free components):
⇒ The app contains libraries of Google Mobile Services.

Download Source Issues ChangeLog

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).

Google Mobile Services© (Development Framework)
Google Mobile Services in terms of the Android library refers to Google Play Services, a proprietary background service and API package for Android devices which is not part of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). The library does not contain those services (i.e. it usually requires the Google Framework, often referred to as „GApps“, being installed on the device), but allows an app to communicate with them. Be aware this usually goes along with transferring at least parts of your personal data to the Google network.
