&lt;p&gt;If you have a look at &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v11.0.0/ant_examples_dfu.html?cp=6_0_0_4_3_0_1_1#ant_examples_dfu_params"&gt;the documentation&lt;/a&gt;, you can find how the application version is passed from the application to the bootloader (by writing to flash). The ota_tester project is a good source to have a look.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I believe the information about application and bootloader both are send when the central request ANTFS_FILE_INDEX_OTA_UPDATE_INFO , handled in antfs_event_download_data_handle().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Maybe it&amp;#39;s just the OTA updater tool doesn&amp;#39;t display it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
