Restoring the Pebble app on iOS with iMazing

Looking for download links? Go to the end of the guide (See downloads below)!

The Pebble app is no longer on the App Store.

No worries! If you have an Apple ID, you can install the app yourself by sideloading!

But if you have made a backup of a iDevice that has the Pebble app installed...

You can restore the Pebble app back into any iDevice you have!

Big thanks to the people at this reddit thread who discovered this!
