Over-the-air device firmware update

The mobile apps provide support for over-the-air device firmware updates (OTA-DFU). These allow for seamless updates to the Thingy firmware application through the Thingy mobile application.

When there is a new feature or a bug fix in the Thingy firmware, you can use the mobile application to connect to Thingy and replace the current firmware with the latest firmware application.

In this view, you can see the name of the firmware package file, as well as its type, size, and version number. In addition, the currently connected device name is also displayed in the view.
Important: Currently, the iOS app contains a bundled firmware package with every release that is hardcoded within the app.
