ReConf v1.1.0: Firmware Version Display and Update Notifications
Overview
The keyboard configurator “ReConf” has been updated to v1.1.0. The main additions in this release are firmware version display for the connected keyboard and update notifications when a newer version is available. Changelogs for both ReConf itself and the firmware can now also be viewed from within the app.

Version Display
The sidebar’s bottom-left now shows two lines of version information:
- ReConf vX.Y.Z — the version of the configurator (app) you are using
- Firmware vX.Y — the firmware version flashed on the connected keyboard
Previously, only the keyboard-side version was visible, and it was displayed under the name “ReConf,” which was confusing. The two are now clearly distinguished.
Update Notifications
When the connected keyboard’s firmware is older than the latest version, you are notified in the following ways:
- A toast notification pops up at connection time
- An update dot appears next to the version display in the sidebar
- An “Update available” badge is shown on the Settings screen
No notifications are shown when you are already on the latest version. The design principle is to draw attention only when an update is needed, so it never gets in the way during normal use.
Changelog
Clicking the version display in the sidebar opens a popup showing the changelogs for both ReConf and the firmware. You can check what changed in each version directly from within the app.
Understanding Version Numbers
- ReConf (app) — follows semantic versioning:
major.minor.patch. The minor version is incremented for backward-compatible feature additions (this release: 1.0.0 → 1.1.0). - Firmware — managed as a 16-bit value and displayed as
vMajor.Minor.

You can explore the UI in demo mode even without a keyboard on hand.
