    I have a Kestrel Sportsman AB that is on version 1.49. A friend of mine has an Elite that is on version 1.53. Is my Kestrel up to date?
     
    Also, i just checked mine. i had an old version of the app. there is a whole new app and when i connected it updated immediately. check your app version.
     
    After I reinstalled it the software version is 298

    When the Kestrel connects to the app it goes through the authentication process, checks firmware and hardware, and then it's ready to use. No mention of an update needed.

    That’s the old app or at least a different one. I downloaded this one and mine updated immediately which was a nice surprise cause I have only ever done it via my pc.
     
    Interesting I am still using the black and yellow app. Had no clue there was a different one. I just went and updated mine but don’t have a clue what version it updated too.

    I’ll have to look into the new app.
     
    I downloaded the other app, connected my Kestrel Sportsman AB Link and ConX and now when I want to check for updates it gives me this message. I've tried it on 2 different wireless networks and still no luck.
