Detailed Description

Controlling the vibration motor.

The Vibes API provides calls that let you control Pebble’s vibration motor.

The vibration motor can be used as a visceral mechanism for giving immediate feedback to the user. You can use it to highlight important moments in games, or to draw the attention of the user. However, you should use the vibration feature sparingly, because sustained use will rapidly deplete Pebble’s battery, and vibrating Pebble too much and too often can become annoying for users.

Note

When using these calls, if there is an ongoing vibration, calling any of the functions to emit (another) vibration will have no effect.
