Is it a “hack the planet” tool?
So I’ve been using the Flipper for about a month, and I have to say it’s awesome. I really didn’t expect so many features. Open garage doors, use it as two-factor authentication, clone remotes, open tesla superchargers, etc…
BUT :
YOU CAN’T DO EVERYTHING WITH IT. It does have its limits, especially when I tried with the help of one of my teachers to clone his badge for opening the school doors. It didn’t worked.
Is the Flipper worth it ?
Well, it depends on your budget. I think the Flipper is worth it, but it’s above all a gadget that I could have done without. It is important to mention that it is an object that has many uses, but if you do not have enough money or do not feel the need to test it, there is no point in buying one.
Can I clone bank cards ?
No, you cannot clone bank cards, however, you can scan your cards and have certain information such as the card number or its expiry date. It does not work with all cards, moreover you will miss the famous CVC (visual cryptogram). Flipper Zero clone possible ? nope.

Can you hack Wi-Fi networks?
Yes, but you will need to buy a Wi-Fi DevBoard. You will have to flash the firmware on the Wi-Fi board, install new firmware on the Flipper Zero, then you can run a tool called Wi-Fi Marauder that will give you access to a bunch of wireless tools.
Where can I buy it ?
You can find the Flipper on Joom.
When does it restock ?
The Flipper’s restock is not known, but you can find some news on discord.
