The micro:bit app is a necessary companion to the BBC micro:bit, a compact programmable computer. With this app, you can easily flash any micro:bit hex file to your device and access the Microsoft MakeCode editor for block-based programming. The app seamlessly transfers your program code to the micro:bit via Bluetooth, following a simple step-by-step process to pair your iPad or iPhone with the micro:bit.

Version 3.1 of the micro:bit app comes with several additional features:

  • A more streamlined pairing and micro:bit discovery flow
  • The ability to put the micro:bit V2 into pairing mode by triple-tapping the reset button
  • Retrieval of micro:bit data log files directly from the device
  • The ability to pair with multiple micro:bits
  • Option to select the currently connected micro:bit
  • Storage of HEX files within the app
  • Choice of HEX file for flashing
  • Exporting and deleting HEX files
  • Direct import of stored HEX files into the JavaScript Blocks editor
  • Rapid download from the JavaScript Blocks editor
  • Real-time monitoring of data detected by micro:bit sensors
  • Utilization of various micro:bit Bluetooth services in real time
  • Displaying messages on the micro:bit LEDs
  • Sending control commands to the micro:bit buttons and pins
  • De-bugging program code while it runs on the micro:bit
  • Using a simulated gamepad to send commands to the micro:bit
  • Viewing camera images for capturing photos or videos

In addition to facilitating more flexible management of program scripts and HEX files, a significant addition in Version 3 is the Monitor and Control page. This feature allows you to monitor real-time data from micro:bit sensors, send messages directly to the LEDs, and control micro:bit buttons and pins from your iPad or iPhone. The Monitor feature is particularly useful for real-time utilization of Bluetooth services and for debugging program code while it executes on the micro:bit.

Please note that the MakeCode code editor now requires iOS 13 or later.
