    Get a smartwatch, replace the stock companion app with Gadgetbridge.

    Watch talks to Gadgetbridge, Gadgetbridge talks to watch. All over Bluetooth.

    Gadgetbridge has no internet access, up or down. It cannot send out any of your data. It remains sandboxed on your phone.

    You can totally uninstall the stock companion app.

      I notice FitBit isn’t supported though.

      Although that’s understandable. The wife had one and it wouldn’t talk to the official app reliably either.
