Release Notes for BeHear NOW Firmware (version 0013)

May 29, 2019

Note: Upgrade time for Android phones is approximately 10-15 minutes. Upgrade time for iOS phones is several hours (therefore, nighttime upgrade – with iPhone connected to charger – is recommended).

This firmware is applicable to BeHear NOW headsets with hardware version 1.0.0 and previous firmware release numbers 000F, 0010 or 0011.

Enhancements

Instructions for setting the BSP remain unchanged (view more information about BSP here).
