Apple rolled out yet one more AirPods firmware replace Wednesday, and as soon as once more declined to supply any particulars by any means concerning the modifications it comprises.
Software program model 6A321, an replace for the Third-generation AirPods from 2021, is detailed in Apple’s AirPods firmware web page with the same old boilerplate launch notes of “Bug fixes and different enhancements.” As my colleague Jason identified a few updates in the past, Apple tends to make use of this language even when an replace comprises solely bug fixes, with no “different enhancements” in any respect.
Of the 14 replace launch notes on that web page, in truth, 12 merely say “Bug fixes and different enhancements.” Examine this to the intensive launch notes you will discover on the safety content material of iOS 17.2, for instance, and the distinction is stark.
In different phrases, we don’t know which bugs Apple determined it wanted to repair. However we do know that the iOS 17 cycle has seen extra of those updates than is common: we’re now as much as a complete of seven firmware updates since iOS 17 got here out in September, in comparison with six for everything of iOS 16. The most recent software program have to be unusually buggy.
In distinction to iOS and different Apple working programs, you don’t merely improve your AirPods to the brand new firmware. As a substitute, it can routinely set up at some barely unpredictable level within the close to future when the AirPods are of their case and charging. In the event you’re questioning which firmware model your AirPods are working, open the Settings app, choose your related AirPods, scroll to the About part, and test Model. You can too discover this data in Basic > About > AirPods.
