    • To use the FixHub Web Console, you need a browser with Web Serial enabled. We recommend Brave, Chrome, Edge, or Opera as they include this functionality enabled by default.

    • Firefox (and its derivatives) and Safari don't support Web Serial at this time.

    • Plug the Portable Power Station into your computer, making sure the cable is connected to the power station's rear port (the side opposite the screen).

    • Ensure your cable is capable of data transfer. Otherwise, you won't be able to use the web console.

    • Navigate to iFixit.com/FixHub/console

Can you update the app or website to display the latest firmware release information for this device? When I plug in my hub, it only shows the current firmware version on the device but doesn't indicate if it's the latest. Unlike other options, I can't click on the box for more details. Additionally, I couldn't find any information on your website about the current firmware version or its release notes.

The web console page is: https://www.ifixit.com/fixhub/console

This is where you can browse through the current and prior firmware versions. However, I don't believe the packaged firmware (at least with CI/CD) is currently open-source at the time of writing. Yet you can see what is currently available here on GitHub: https://github.com/ifixit/fixhub (The commands here work if you're able to access the FixHub with either minicomp on Linux or PuTTY on Windows; you can determine which TTY device the FixHub is assigned to with the help of the FixHub web console, which reliably picks out the correct low-level serial device name for the FixHub.)

Same the settings tab is missing for me with no option to reset battery health calibration data after updating the firmware on the power station.
