- Phone: download the new APK and install it over the old one – settings are kept.
- Windows: close TJ1GD Remote X6100 and run the new MSI installer – it replaces the old version, gateway settings are kept.
- Raspberry Pi: when the app says “Bramka ma starszą wersję” (gateway is out of date), download the new card image and write it as on the first install (guide), then set the gateway up from the phone.
