New 'look and feel' removes the 'command line' logger interface, which was incredibly useful. Also doesn't automatically reconnect when the device power cycles. Also only shows a handful of notifications, instead of the entire history. Have to compile an old version from source to get these features back. Bring back the console!!! it was a great debugging tool

Hi, the console is available in the nRF Logger app. Click the top right icon after you connect (added in 3.0.3). But indeed, it doesn't allow to send a custom command without configuring a button. We'll add it in the next release. Thank you for the feedback. You may also use nRF Connect, which allows sending any command or store them as macros.

Doesn't work on Android 10 on a pixel3a: doesn't find any devices. I disabled/re-enabled location permission as suggested in prior feedback but nothing. The "connect" button just brings up a dialog box that immediately states "No device found", it didn't really have time to scan.

When scanning for a Bluetooth device, dosent find one when using mobile phone, (updating scalextric arc air firmware), this is a simple fix if your tech mided, instead of downloading the nrf toolbox download the nrf for mobile as when scanning for the scalextric arc air set it will definitely find which will enable you to update your scalextric arc air set,

What’s new

In this version we fixed a bug causing some chunks received from devices with MDS service to be prematurely deleted before they were sent to nRF Cloud.
