Eventually I could not find any free Notes/ToDo app for Pebble. So I decided to create one. Sources are available at GitHub.

PebbleNotes is an SDK2 app (Android/IOs agnostic) which allows you to have your ToDo lists created in Google Tasks right on your wrist. It cannot edit or append items to your checklist, but you may mark any item as done or undone.
It supports both iOS and Android phones (well, must support; tested mostly on Android).
Currently it is in beta state, so expect some strange and nasty bugs (and please report them). Also note that many more features are still coming.

How to use it:
- Create some ToDo lists in Google Tasks using eigher GMail's "Tasks" window or from mobile version, also you may choose to use some native IOs/Android app (GTasks, GTasks HD, NoNonsenceNotes (android), many more...).
- Download and install PebbleNotes watchapp from Pebble AppStore (or from MyPebbleFaces).
- Open its settings, if they didn't open themself (in Pebble app: Watchapps -> PebbleNotes -> Gear icon)
- Tap "Log in" button and enter into your Google account. This is neccessary to give the app access to your ToDo lists
- Done! Now look at your watch - you should see all your tasklists. You may open one of them to see tasks in it, and you may mark tasks as done/undone with middle button.
Known problems
- When you update your tasks, the app will only notice it after reloading tasklist (i.e. open another one and return to previous, or exit program and launch it again).
- It is not recommended to leave tasklist window before it finished loading, as it may cause unpredictable behaviour. Will be fixed.
- I am not a designer nor artist, so UI is ugly. If you have any ideas on UI improvements, feel free to share them here.
- If your tasks contain non-Latin characters, these characters will not show on stock Pebble firmware. You may fix it by using custom firmware from PebbleBits, which also includes non-latin characters in notifications.
Upcoming features:
- Handling of nested tasks (in Gmail's interface they are created using Tab key)
- Offline mode, to allow browsing tasklists when there is no internet or even bluetooth connection; also allow you to mark tasks as done during offline and later sync them with Google.
- Displaying task details, including its description (thus this program was named "PebbleNotes"!) - Done!
- More clean UI (e.g. move status messages to top line of screen)
- Ability to clean finished tasks from list
- Stability improvements
Please feel free to report bugs or suggest new features. This is an early beta now, but must already be useable.
