iOS newtmgr app evaluation

Hi,

We're working on a basic iOS (and later Android) app to do some of the 
tasks newtmgr does, but via a mobile app you can download in the app 
store. It's intentionally limited for the moment, but you can monitor 
stats, tasks and perform firmware updates in a common dual bank setup. 
The most useful feature in my opinion is that you can live 'stream' the 
stats, so you have a wireless window in the current state of the HW.

We'd like to have a couple testers for it before we release, and I can 
add a few people to TestFlight for feedback, but I'd really like to 
limit it to people who have the time to provide some feedback. The code 
will be open source once published, and we will contribute this to the 
community, but to get it into the app store we need to kick the tires in 
first. Ideally, community involved in expanding the app would be 
welcome, but we've made a first pass at putting something together.

If you have the time and interest in evaluating this, and some Swift 
experience would be even better, please reply here or email me the 
address associated with your Apple account and we can add you.

Kevin

PS: Everything is currently based on the 1.0.0 tag to keep things 
consistent across users.

Fingers crossed as part of your contribution you separate the newt lib to a
dependency (cocoapod?) that can be resused!

Re: iOS newtmgr app evaluation

You should both have access to the app now.

The important thing is that you are also on the following tags for the 
core repo and utilities:

1. newt core is *mynewt_1_0_0_tag*
2. newt tool  is* mynewt_1_0_0_tag*

Inside the app, the key useful feature is the 'play' icon in the top 
right hand corner. Clicking that enables streaming of stats. You can 
also click it in a specific stats group to see BLE stats tick live, etc.

Please let us know any feedback, ideally with screenshots and detailed 
info, etc.!

I'm limited to how many hours we can pour into this since it's done as 
paid work via an external individual, but we'd like to contribute to the 
project and this seems like a good way.

Best regards,
Kevin

Perhaps it's a limitation of the group mailing list ... no images here 
either, but not a huge problem.

For the firmware uploading process, what I don't like today is the very 
manual process that requires some previous knowledge. You first have to 
upload your image, then reset, then select the new image and click 
'confirm' (or revert) and then reset again. You will also see an error 
when confirming since the return code is not 0 but it's still a 
non-error I believe, though it's been a while. I just think this could 
be easier for customers (one click updates ideally), but I'm afraid the 
entire update process and the various edge cases around it (failed 
transfer, failed confirm, etc.) were a bit hazy, and this underwent some 
fairly active development just before the 1.0.0 release so it was hard 
to keep track of the changes 100% of the time.

The more eyes that look at it the better an eventual release will be, 
though, so thanks for testing!

Re: iOS newtmgr app evaluation

Hi Jacob,

The images didn't seem to have made it through? Any feedback would be 
appreciated if you see some things to improve, though ... we were really 
hoping for some concrete feedback especially on the firmware update 
process, but at worst we'll have to publish it as is and work any issues 
or improvements out in a future update.

Thanks for taking the time to look, though, and glad you found the stats 
useful. I think being able to stream live updates of the stats is a very 
useful non-intrusive wireless debug tool.

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

I am very interested in evaluating this. I do not have any Swift experience but I am always working on different demos for various events and would love to test this out.
My Apple ID/email is aditi.hilbert@gmail.com <ma...@gmail.com>.

thanks,
aditi

It's intentionally limited for the moment, but you can monitor stats, tasks and perform firmware updates in a common dual bank setup. The most useful feature in my opinion is that you can live 'stream' the stats, so you have a wireless window in the current state of the HW.
