About this app

The nRF Programmer allows users to upload precompiled firmware samples from the nRF Connect SDK to your Nordic Thingy:53 over Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE), without connecting to a PC or external programmer. This allows you to easily test out different applications and updating firmware without the need of having physical access to the device.
Quickly install precompiled sample apps on your Thingy:53.

Could not connect to thingy53 device. Always displays an error no location permission and no prompt to enable location permission. And I'm stuck with an unending circular progress searching for device. The app is not useful yet.

We fixed downloading the packets. The issue was caused by moving the repository to a different location. Sorry!
