Mature software projects rarely stop developing one day, and the legendary Flipper Zero will be no exception. The developers of Flipper Devices reported that the official development of the firmware will continue by limited forces, but updates and patches will still be released, including thanks to the support of the community.
Flipper Devices considers the Flipper Zero software platform mature enough: the developers have implemented all the promised opportunities, stabilized the tools for creating applications and in December 2025 released version 1.4.3.
Doubts in the future of the project appeared after the interviews and discussions, from which users concluded that they completely stop the development. Flipper Devices revised the approach after a negative response and decided to continue working with fewer employees, focusing on the main resources on new devices, including the open Linux platform Flipper One.
New offers will now be accepted only through GitHub Discussions and review every week. Users will be able to vote for requests, and the team will determine priorities taking into account the results. Changes from third-party developers will also continue to take, but the check will become stricter.
Each update must undergo integration and regression tests that will open to community members. The developers will pay special attention to the generated AI code, which affects low-level functions, as well as changes in the interface and additions requiring the processing of documentation.
Flipper Devices has explained the new model of the audience, which exceeded a million users. A small team could not cope with the flow of requests, so the company turned off personal messages on social networks and postponed requests for further development of firmware on GitHub.
