Momentum is a based on the Official Firmware for Flipper Zero, and includes most of the awesome features from Unleashed. It is a direct continuation of the Xtreme firmware, built by the same (and only) developers who made that project special.
The goal of this firmware is to constantly push the bounds of what is possible with Flipper Zero, driving the innovation of many new groundbreaking features, while maintaining the easiest and most customizable user experience of any firmware. Fixing bugs promptly and ensuring a stable and compatible system is also of our utmost importance.

1: Official Firmware can pair to some rolling code receivers (less than Custom Firmwares), and it does not allow sending rolling code signals captured in the wild (Custom Firmwares listed above allow it at your own risk of de-synchronizing the original remote).
2: Official Firmware can use FindMy Flipper by installing the app from the App Catalog, but it will not automatically enable at startup. Custom Firmwares can enable it automatically every time Flipper turns on, so it is always being tracked while turned on.
3: These Firmwares include the extra Bad KB configuration options in the Bad USB app since they were proposed to OFW in PR 4136. Technically not Bad KB, but the functionality is there.
4: Partional functionality, less options in the "CFW Settings" management app.
5: Different format (manifest_xyz.txt) that only supports animations, not icons and fonts
