How can I update my Briiv firmware?

All Briiv units that are connected to WiFi via the Briiv 2.0 app should pull through any new firmware updates automatically on an OTA (over the air) basis. 

Units which don't pull the update through may need to be updated manually instead, but rather than sending your Briiv back to us we've made a Briiv Firmware Update Utility. This means you can update your Briiv firmware yourself at home, giving you access to all the latest features and bug fixes. 

To use the Utility you need to use a Chrome browser, and your unit must have an integrated cable. If you have a micro-USB removable cable, the Utility won't currently work for your unit. You also need a computer with a USB port. 

1. Plug your Briiv directly into your computer using the USB cable (do not use a hub)
2. Open the utility https://fivecreate.github.io/Briiv2.0.github.io/ 
3. Choose your platform (original Briiv, or Briiv 2/2Pro)
4. Click connect
5. Select your port and click connect
6. Click Install Briiv
7. Click install
8. Remain on this page with the browser window open and visible
9. Wait for the firmware to update. This can take up to two minutes
10. When the party popper displays your installation is complete! 
11. Your unit is now up to date. You can unplug it from your computer and return it to its usual power source. 

NOTE It can take upwards of five minutes for the firmware update to show in the app, so don’t worry if it’s not there immediately. Your unit may also need time to apply the update, so after returning to its usual power source you should leave your Briiv unit and app for around five minutes. 

You can check the firmware version by going into the app and pressing and holding on the unit name. The firmware version will pop up and should now be up to date.
