Flipper Devices says development of the Flipper Zero firmware will continue, albeit with a smaller internal team and greater reliance on community contributions.
The announcement comes as the gadget maker decided to focus on building new devices, like the Flipper One open Linux platform, for which the company turned to the community's help to complete development.
There is also the newly launched Busy Bar device, designed to help people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) reduce distractions, slated for open sale on July 14 in the U.S., U.K., Europe, and Canada.
Flipper Devices stated that the official firmware for the Flipper Zero portable pen-testing device will still be maintained, but full-time feature development is now over.
Flipper Zero Firmware 1.0, the first major stable release, was announced in September 2024, following three years of development. The latest official stable release is version 1.4.3, available since December 2025.
