MeshCore OTA Repeater updater for iOS. If you know what meshcore is, and you know what a repeater is, this is the app you want. The app connects via BLE to a MeshCore Bluetooth companion node. It then allows you to select a repeater, put it into OTA mode via a login. Then you switch to the Repeaters WiFi connection and do a flash. PLEASE NOTE: this is for ESP-32 based repeaters only.
