# Getting started with InfiniTime 1.0
On April 22 2021, InfiniTime and Pine64 [announced the release of InfiniTime 1.0](https://www.pine64.org/2021/04/22/its-time-infinitime-1-0/) and the availability of PineTime smartwatches as *enthusiast grade end-user product*. This page aims to guide you with your first step with your new PineTime.
## Firmware, InfiniTime, Bootloader, Recovery firmware, OTA, DFU... What is it?
You might have already seen these words by reading the announcement, release notes, or [the wiki guide](https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Upgrade_PineTime_to_InfiniTime_1.0.0) and, you may find them misleading if you're not familiar with the project.

**OTA** and **DFU** refer to the update of the firmware over BLE (**B**luetooth **L**ow **E**nergy). **OTA** means **O**ver **T**he **A**ir, this is a functionality that allows the user to update the firmware how their device using a wireless communication like BLE. When we talk about **DFU** (**D**igital **F**irmware **U**pdate), we refer to the file format and protocol used to send the update of the firmware to the watch over-the-air. InfiniTime implement the (legacy) DFU protocol from Nordic Semiconductor (NRF).
## How to check the version of InfiniTime and the bootloader?
Since September 2020, all PineTimes (devkits or sealed) are flashed using the **[first iteration of the bootloader](https://github.com/lupyuen/pinetime-rust-mynewt/releases/tag/v4.1.7)** and **[InfiniTime 0.7.1](https://github.com/JF002/InfiniTime/releases/tag/0.7.1)**. There was no recovery firmware at that time.
The bootloader only runs when the watch starts (from an empty battery, for example) or after a reset (after a succesful OTA or a manual reset - long push on the button).

### From InfiniTime 0.7.1 / old bootloader
If your PineTime is currently running InfiniTime 0.7.1 and the old bootloader, we strongly recommend you update them to more recent version (Bootloader 1.0.0 and InfiniTime 1.0.0 as of now). We also recommend you install the recovery firmware once the bootloader is up-do-date.

### From version > 1.0
If you are already running the new "1.0.0" bootloader, all you have to do is update your version of InfiniTime when it'll be available. We'll write specific instructions when (if) we release a new version of the bootloader.
### Firmware validation
The bootloader requires a (manual) validation of the firmware. If the watch reset with an updated firmware that was not validated, the bootloader will consider it as non-functionning and will revert to the previous version of the firmware. This is a safety feature to prevent bricking your device with a faulty firmware.

### Setting the time
By default, InfiniTime starts on the digital watchface. It'll probably display the epoch time (1 Jan 1970, 00:00). The time will be automatically synchronized once you connect on of the companion app to your PineTime using BLE connectivity. InfiniTime does not provide any way to manually set the time for now.
