How to update AirPods or AirPods Pro

New firmware is installed over the air while your AirPods‌ or AirPods Pro are connected to an iOS device. Simply put them in their case, connect them to a power source, and then pair them to an iPhone or an iPad to force the update. That's it. After a while, any available firmware updates should be automatically downloaded and installed.

If want to make sure your earbuds are up to date with the latest firmware, follow the steps below.

  1. Insert your ‌AirPods‌ or AirPods Pro into their case.
  2. Connect the charging case to a power source using the included Lightning to USB cable.
    • Or, if you have a Wireless Charging Case or MagSafe Charging Case, place it on a Qi-compatible wireless charging mat or a MagSafe charger.
  3. Move the iPhone or iPad that the ‌AirPods‌ were paired with to the charging case.
    • Note: Make sure the iOS device has an internet connection.
