Update: I followed the nRF Toolbox method here: http://www.espruino.com/Bangle.js#firmware-updates
It worked - kind of. The watch disconnected after every 1-2% of progress, with 0 bytes reported as received. After clicking on Retry, 50+ times, it finally got as far as 100% and then seems to have booted to 2V10.244 (according to About on the watch).
Surely it's not supposed to be this difficult/complex/frustrating? For anyone who is not in any way tech savvy, this kind of thing would be a deal breaker I would think.

I enabled the app loader firmware update on Friday - it was supposed to make this process a lot easier! I'll try and get a fix in for that today though.
What device did you use nRF Toolbox from? When I do updates here from an Android phone it just sits there and flashes in one go.

Hi Gordon,
nRF Toolbox did the trick (with the .zip file) on iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 15.1. It worked eventually, but it wasn't a simple one-click operation, as I've written in other comments.
Other than that, this is a great successor to the Pebble, and arrived just as my Pebble battery decided it couldn't cope any more!
So, since I wasn't able to upload from the original .219 firmware through the Firmware Update app on the /apps page, I thought I'd try the Web IDE flasher method.
I'm now stuck an a screen with:
SW RESET
DFU 2V10.219
CHECK STORAGE
NO NEW FW
BANK0 INVALID
BTN1 = REBOOT
And nothing will get me past that.
Additionally, when selecting the Bangle.js 2 board in the Web IDE Flasher - Flash Firmware page, I get the error:
Sorry, the firmware update has failed.
The error was: Unable to download https://www.espruino.com/binaries/espruino_2v10_banglejs2.zip
Please try again, or check out the Troubleshooting page for what to do next.
I had also tried downloading the zip and then going the Flash from File route, but I got another error about being unable to read the zip and then the watch showed a CONNECT ERROR.
Could someone please give me step by step instructions?
