nrfgo studio is kinda deprecated, 2 years since

So this was 2 years ago now - and yet the issue still arises:

Isn't it about time that the nRF Go page was clearly marked as "Legacy", with clear instructions to prefer nRF Connect??

Hi,

We are in the process of replacing nRFGo Studio with nRFConnect. A new app should appear in the list of nRFConnect app to handle flashing. However it's not ready yet. For now to see the layout of flash, which softdevice on the board etc you would need to use nRFConnect. But as you already noticed it's not up to date.

Note that the best way of doing flash or reading memory is to use nrfjprog.exe command line tool. nRFGo Studio running on top of nrfjprog.exe.

nrfjprog.exe is getting update frequently and can be used with the latest chip.
