Uhoo Manual

Your uHoo will prompt you when there is a newer version of Firmware to apply to your

1.

uHoo, because the uHoo is battery powered and not normally powered on it can only
do this once it has made a call and communicated with the server (uHoo is powered
on) and it will show this window at the end of a video call. Firmware updates may
include new features or firmware fixes. It is strongly advised that you always keep your
uHoo up to date as it may become incompatible with later releases of the App. The
Firmware update will occur at the end of the next call, after you have agreed to an
update it may take up to 3 minutes to download from the server and apply, during this
time the uHoo will be inactive (you cannot make calls) and the Doorbell light will
remain on for the duration of the call. You can force the update immediately after you
have agreed to the update by just making a video call, answering it with you app and
then hanging up then the update will occur.
Your uHoo will most likely want to do its first Firmware update once you have done
