You need to download the DFU of the firmware version that you'd like to install, for example pinetime-mcuboot-app-dfu-1.6.0.zip

NRFConnect

Open NRFConnect. Swipe down in the Scanner tab and wait for your device to appear:

NRFConnect 0

Tap on the Connect button on the right of your device. NRFConnect will connect to your PineTime and discover its characteristics. Tap on the DFU button on the top right:

Select Distribution packet (ZIP):

NRFConnect 2

Browse to the DFU file you downloaded previously, the DFU transfer will start automatically. When the transfer is finished, your PineTime will reset and restart on the new version of InfiniTime!
