Flipper Companionevery capability, fully illustrated

What do you want to do?

Pick a goal below, or just type what you're looking for. Every card shows exactly what to press, what you'll need, what's legal, and what real owners actually do with it.

Safe mode is on, so the advanced cards (rolling-code remotes, BLE spam, BadUSB and friends) are hidden. Flip the switch top right for everything your Flipper can do.

Jargon decoder

Every techy word used in this app, in plain English.
Sub-GHz

Radio waves below 1 GHz. Garage remotes, gate motors and car keys live here (300 to 928 MHz).

NFC

13.56 MHz. Tap a card or phone against the back of the Flipper.

125 kHz RFID

Older fobs and badges. You wave them, you don't tap them.

IR (infrared)

Invisible light from TV remotes. Needs line of sight.

iButton

Touch keys used by old intercoms. Two metal pins on the Flipper's top edge.

Rolling code

A code that changes every time you press. Much harder to copy. Modern cars and gates use it.

Fixed code

The same code every press. Cheap remotes use it, so they're easy to copy.

Magic card

A blank card whose ID can be rewritten, so you can clone another card onto it.

T5577

A blank 125 kHz chip you can program to be any fob.

Custom firmware (CFW)

Modified Flipper software that unlocks extra features. Legal to install, your device.

DuckyScript

A simple keyboard-macro language for BadUSB scripts.

BadUSB

Making a computer think the Flipper is a keyboard and typing at superhuman speed.

Deauth

Kicking devices off a WiFi network by flooding it with disconnect messages.

Evil portal

A fake WiFi login page that tricks people into typing their password.

Wardriving

Logging WiFi networks with GPS coordinates as you drive or walk past.

MFKey32

A tool that recovers the keys on MIFARE Classic cards, whose encryption is famously broken.

Crypto-1

The broken encryption used by MIFARE Classic cards.

BLE

Bluetooth Low Energy. The Flipper does BLE only, not classic Bluetooth.
