You can check the InfiniTime version by first swiping right on the watchface to
open quick settings, tapping the cogwheel to open settings, swipe up until you
find an entry named "About" and tap on it.

#### Bootloader
The
[bootloader](https://github.com/JF002/pinetime-mcuboot-bootloader/releases/tag/1.0.0)
is run right before booting into InfiniTime.
It is easily recognizable with its white pine cone that is progressively drawn
in green. It also displays its own version on the bottom (1.0.0 as of now).

#### The firmware
Well, it's InfiniTime :)
#### Recovery firmware
The *recovery functionality* allows to load a [recovery
firmware](https://github.com/InfiniTimeOrg/InfiniTime/releases/tag/0.14.1) from
the external flash memory to recover the PineTime when the current firmware
cannot boot anymore.
This recovery firmware is a slightly modified version of InfiniTime that only
provides a basic UI and the OTA functionality. You'll be able to use this
firmware to load a new firmware over-the-air using BLE connectivity.
[This
article](https://www.ncartron.org/pinetimes-infinitime-new-bootloader-and-a-recovery-firmware.html)
describes how to upgrade your PineTime to benefit from this feature.
PineTime units shipped after (confirm date with JF) come with the recovery
firmware already installed, so there's no need to follow this procedure.
