Download the hex file from the hexfiles directory and copy it on to your micro:bit.\n2. Download the APK file or clone this GitHub repo and build it yourself\n3. Install the APK on your mobile device\n4. Pair the micro:bit to your phone (It is recommended to use the \"nRF Connect\" app from Nordic for pairing)\n5. Connect to the micro:bit by clicking \"Connect\" (this might take a few seconds!)\n6. Once the connection is established the micro:bit should show a smiling face.\n7. Use the DPAD controls to steer the [:MOVE mini](https://www.kitronik.co.uk/5624-move-mini-buggy-kit-excl-microbit.html) and have fun! :)\n\n\n## Disclaimer\n\nSo far this app has only been tested on a Google Nexus 5X phone with Android firmware version 6.0.1.\n\nThis software is for educational and private use only. \n\n[:MOVE mini](https://www.kitronik.co.uk/5624-move-mini-buggy-kit-excl-microbit.html) is designed \u0026 manufactured in the UK by [Kitronik](https://kitronik.co.uk). \n\n“BBC” and “micro:bit” are trademarks of the BBC.
