whiskerwire_ companion 0.3.5 is available now on iOS and Android! This update fixes a problem where locally-stored firmware updates were not being correctly loaded, preventing offline updates (or updates when the firmware host is down), and a minor visual issue with the Material Design buttons.

whiskerwire_ Companion 0.3.3 has been submitted for Android! This release fixes connectivity issues on Google Pixel devices running Android 16 and improves error handling for connection issues.

whiskerwire_ companion 0.3.2 is out now on Android! This restores access on the Google Play Store, fixes a CVE in our base libraries and is built to support 16KB page size alignments. We'll be getting access to a test device with known issues to try to resolve the BT connection issues on Pixel soon

So, Google have taken the whiskerwire_ Companion app for "inactivity"... While we're trying to push and test an update to fix Pixel devices. Very weird. We're working on resolving it!

Very happy to announce that we will be back at the Confuzzled Dealers Den in 2026, across Saturday and Sunday. Come along, buy some badges! Maybe we'll have a new model by then... Stay tuned 👀

Congrats to the winning bidder who got a Pawsome Digibadge+Pin bundle, donating £180 for the charity!

Thank you again to everyone who came by the @whiskerwi.re table at Pawsome today! (And Wild North last week). We did very well at both and I'm sorta blown away by the support. If you missed out on a Digibadge, keep an eye out in tomorrow's Pawsome charity auction...

Also! We're at Confuzzled next week! Come see us, the new SERVAL Digibadge model (a portrait LCD!), our new range of PUPPY pins, pride stickers, and double-clip lanyards (perfect for Digibadges).

Digibadge owners! We've finally got an update for you, available now on iOS and Android! This update includes a firmware update for all models of whiskerwire_ Digibadge, fixing a myriad of issues, adding new quality-of-life features, and dramatically improving connection stability.

In light of the state of the... well, everything - We're going to be focusing on Bluesky as our primary social platform from here on out. We'll still be crossposting on the old place and handling support requests there for the moment, but the goal is to fully move here eventually.
