Overview
Firmware updates improve the performance of your Entagged device by upgrading its internal software. Keeping your firmware up to date ensures your device runs smoothly and protects against bugs and errors.
It is good practice to keep your firmware up to date. That being said, we do not recommend running a firmware update at/right before a shoot, unless the update relates to an issue you are currently experiencing with your Entagged device. You can see what updates and changes are included by tapping on the firmware update.
Here’s how to perform a firmware update:
- If there is a firmware update available, you will see a red notification badge in the bottom left corner of the app. Follow it to get to firmware screen: App menu → Entagged icon in bottom left → tap on your Entagged → tap “Firmware”.
- Scroll down and tap to start the update.
- Important: Make sure to keep your camera awake for the whole duration of the update by half-pressing the shutter button. If your camera goes into standby mode and the update stops, simply turn it on again and restart the update.
- Once complete, a checkmark will appear.
Should your update get stuck, please refer to this article for troubleshooting steps.
The Takeaway
Updating your firmware keeps your Entagged running smoothly with the latest improvements and fixes and ensures you are best prepared for your upcoming shoot.
