23,000 Devices Shipped! Quick Start Guide for Flipper Zero
Many backers have already received their Flipper Zeros, and their number is growing by the day. At the time of writing, 23 thousand devices have already been shipped! We're getting a ton of feedback from users and it's amazing. Unfortunately, there is still a considerable number of backers who are waiting for their deliveries. In this post, we will tell you how it's going so far and give an update on shipping and production schedules. We are also providing a guide on the first launch and initial setup of your device.
This is a manual for the first launch of Flipper Zero: it explains how to update the firmware, install databases to an SD card, and more. Please read it carefully before using your Flipper Zero as it's a rather advanced piece of hardware, and many things may not be obvious. Read the First Start section of the documentation for more details.
As a safety precaution, Flipper travels in the box in transport mode. In this mode, power is supplied only to the internal clock of the microcontroller. You can read more about the different power modes in the Power section of the documentation. To turn on your device, push and hold the :back: button.
