Hi :blush:… is there an (particle-) app (as simple as possible) that can be used to setup the Argon‘s WiFi when it is deployed to some distant location and the person that installs it doesn’t have the device claimed? I think of everything that has to be done is putting the Argon to listening-mode, …

Wouldn’t the Particle app work for this process? Google Play Particle IOT Apple App Store Particle IOT If the device has not been claimed then the setup done bit needs to be set in the firmware are triggered from the Particle app to get out of listening mode.

A very good question. One of the objectives of BLE on the Argon was to help make the WiFi setup process easier by using BLE and not softAP. The problem with softAP is that the device can’t give feedback through the web page as soon as it tries to connect itself to the selected AP. A simple BLE UART…

Unfortunately, this isn’t currently supported by the Particle mobile apps. It’s something we def. want to add, but the work isn’t yet on our roadmap.

Is this coming soon? How do I have the end user connect an Argon to his existing WiFi right now?
