Was that the world’s first over–the–ear update?
Apple on Thursday released the first OTA update for the just-released AirPods Pro – from firmware version 2B584 to 2B588. However, it’s unclear what’s included in the update because there’s no notification, icon badge, or release notes.
In fact, the update process is completely invisible and you may already have it. While the process will seem weird if you’re used the iOS and Mac App Stores, it’s completely normal for electronic gadgets. They usually need an update to the factory-installed firmware immediately after being unboxed.
If you’re curious, here’s how to check if your AirPods Pro have the factory firmware (2B584) or the update (2B588)…
Open the iOS Settings app, tap “General,” tap “About,” and open the AirPods Pro case. After they connect to your iPhone a new row will appear for your AirPods Pro. Tap it and grok your Firmware Version will be on the next screen.
The firmware ending in –588 is the new one. Carry on.
Seriously though, if you have any feedback, let us know in the comments.
