First - this thing is a great piece of hardware.

Second - have you read your guide? your guides lead to guides that lead to guides and now I have an app on my android in chinese, outdated firmware that I'm still trying to figure out how to update, like 4 different pieces of software and multi-page read-me's on how this is somehow all suppose to be easy...

Particle Photon (the complicated version - install node & particle-cli): particle update
the end - or just flash a sketch from their web ide with the latest version of the firmware picked.

Redbear duo (the simple version): I literally don't know where to begin.

Somehow I managed to get all this going a few years ago... I was expecting after that much time for the process to have been simplified, but its worse! I got the RBLink cause I wanted some expansion options - which apparently means I need software written not by redbear.. and your versions don't match up btw: "STM32 ST-LINK Utility v3.9.0.exe" as "linked" to from ST-LINK Utility Which version was that again? Zadig? Unsigned drivers?

I'm sure someone with some knowledge is going to rip me a new one at how simple it really is and that I've been looking at old/wrong instructions... just keep in mind I got here from the link(s) on readbear.cc that send me to the kickstarter page AND the github page... PLEASE simplify this process.. I ran out of ibuprofen.. not kidding, my head actually hurts right now. what should have taken 10 minutes wasted the 2 hours of time I gave myself to fiddle before work and I still don't have something that works. Simplify this mess and you'll be golden - keep it complicated, you might as well just put a big sign on your site (with a link to another site) that says 'Degree in pain management required, signature required with parental consent'
