Hi Hassan,

You are not wrong, this could be one choice. If you want to use nrfcloud FOTA feature, it will need some extra effort to properly combine the lwm2m client and nrfcloud FOTA support to your application. I would personally prefer to use the existing solution(Lwm2m client sample) since the lwm2m protocol itself already support the FOTA feature.

Just play and try with related nRF9160 examples, I believe you will make your decision after getting familiar with them.

Best regards,

Charlie

Good day

Thank you so much for the help ! I do also feel like using lwm2m would be better. However, we intend to use our own lwm2m server and I feel as though it would be more complicated to use our server than simply using nrfcloud. I may be wrong ?

Kind regards,

Hassan

Hi Hkhan,

It is possible, nRF9160 samples have several samples demonstrating how to use nRF Cloud FOTA in different ways, but lwm2m server like Coiote Device Management platform already supports FOTA, so maybe be simple and easy to just use lwm2m. You can refer to nRF9160: LwM2M Client — nRF Connect SDK 2.2.0 documentation (nordicsemi.com).

Best regards,
