The Beats companion app on Android has a feature to update the headphones’ firmware. Apple should provide AirPods users with the same feature on iPhones.
Every once in a while, Apple updates the firmware of its AirPods, as it recently did with the new AirPods Pro 3 models. While the company usually says these updates improve the stability of the earbuds in addition to other bug fixes, Apple also introduces more features occasionally. In the past few months, the company added Live Translation to these earbuds, and it continued to expand the feature to new languages. That said, it’s only natural that users want these features as soon as possible.
Technically, Apple offers a guide on how to update your AirPods firmware. However, it isn’t as straightforward as you would imagine. The process requires a bit of luck and a lot of waiting.
