+
+## Use pyRF24 instead
+
+We recommend using the newer [pyRF24](https://github.com/nRF24/pyRF24) package
+[available from pypi](https://pypi.org/project/pyrf24/) because
+
+1. it is [practically drop-in compatible](https://nrf24.github.io/pyRF24/#migrating-to-pyrf24)
+2. easier to install or get updates with popular package managers like pip
+3. does not require the C++ libraries to be installed -- it uses its own isolated binaries
+4. includes wrappers for RF24, RF24Network, RF24Mesh libraries
+5. includes a new [fake BLE implementation](https://nrf24.github.io/pyRF24/ble_api.html)
+6. has its own [dedicated documentation](https://nRF24.github.io/pyRF24)
+7. is compatible with python's builtin `help()`
+8. includes typing stub files for type checking tools like mypy
+
+The only reason that you should need to keep using these older individual python
+wrappers is if you must use python v3.6 or older.
+
+You **cannot** use these individual wrappers in combination with the pyRF24 package.
