Comments on Thingy:52 for Android

★★★★☆ Dylan Reynolds · Jun 15, 2017

I have given it 4 stars because the magnetometer needs a calibration procedure. I am currently travelling north on a bus and The Thingy has done two full revolutions of the compass and telling me I'm heading east. Other than that, it's a great app. Oh, while I think about it, why no NFC support when there is an NFC antenna?

★★★★☆ Jeff Roetman · Jul 28, 2017

Nice app - the Thingy seems to be more robust and reliable than the Sensor Tag in my experience. A couple of things that are lacking in the Android app: - Fahrenheit option for temperature (only available on iOS right now) - Battery level indicator for the Thingy (this can be seen with nRF Connect app in a more manual method of checking the battery level). - Longer delay options for sensor readings (for cloud integration). - A humidity_update event option for IFTTT. I mention the longer delay for the sensor readings because I would like to feed data to IFTTT, but I don't need "real time" resolution. I am planning to look into a Raspberry Pi option for cloud integration.

It would be very useful to have a new function with the ability to record the raw data to a file for further analysis. Still very great app from Nordic!

Cannot connect using Samsung Note 8, Scan sees nothing even though I can scan tag with NFC fine, and can see it in Bluetooth settings and connect to it with nRF Connect just fine. Please help. I am happy to beta test if you email Reanimation XP at gmail.

This app is installed on motor style and is not able to find thingy device. The Bluetooth on the phone is able to find it though. This is Android 6. Not sure how to resolve this issue.

★★☆☆☆ Harry Oosterveen · Aug 11, 2017

Firmware update hangs or crashes. Menu items often don't respond, i.e., can only see the environment screen. Some environment values not shown, while others are missing in web interface.

★★☆☆☆ Don Haig · May 29, 2020

Initially the device wouldn't pair with my tablet. I turned the thingy off and on again, and it now seems to be working....except that it keeps asking me if I want to update the firmware to 2.2.0. When I select confirm, the app crashes.
