New page

= Firmware versioning for companion apps =

BLE defines a standard service (Device Information Service, DIS) that allows BLE devices to expose informations about them : hardware version, software version,...

Companion apps will use these information to detect which firmware (or fork of a firmware) is running on the Pinetime they are connected to.
