    Apple launches fresh updates for AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4

    Apple has just rolled out new software updates for the AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4, making them even better for users. This is the first update since the big iOS 18.1 release, which added cool hearing health features. The AirPods Pro 2 now has a new version called 7C163, while the AirPods 4 got bumped up to 7C162.

    These updates are for everyone, not just tech testers. What’s new in these updates? Apple hasn’t shared all the details yet, but they likely fix some bugs and make things run smoother. The last update for AirPods Pro 2 brought tools like a hearing test and hearing aid mode, so this one might tweak those features a bit more.

    The AirPods 4 update probably focuses on small improvements too, even though it doesn’t have the hearing extras that the Pro version offers. You can’t force these updates to download right away. Instead, your AirPods will grab them on their own when they’re charging and near your iPhone, iPad, or Mac with Wi-Fi.

    Just pop them in their case, plug them in, and wait a little—usually about 30 minutes. After that, they’ll be ready with the latest goodies. Have your AirPods picked up the new software yet? Noticed anything different? Let us know what you think! These updates show Apple’s keeping its earbuds fresh and working great for everyone.

  • New features for AirPods Pro 2 and Apple Watch Ultra 3

    New features for AirPods Pro 2 and Apple Watch Ultra 3

    Apple is bringing exciting updates to its popular devices! Starting today, March 26, 2025, AirPods Pro 2 users in four more countries—Australia, Brazil, Colombia, and Saudi Arabia—can enjoy new hearing health tools. These features, first launched last year, need approval from health officials, so they’re rolling out slowly.

    With the Hearing Test, you can check your hearing in just five minutes using your AirPods and an iPhone or iPad with iOS 18. After the test, you’ll get a simple report about your hearing levels and tips for improvement. For those with mild to moderate hearing loss, the Hearing Aid mode turns the AirPods into a high-quality hearing aid by adjusting sounds based on your test results. This helps you hear conversations and your surroundings better.

    Meanwhile, rumors suggest the Apple Watch Ultra 3, expected later this year, will get big connectivity upgrades. It might be the first Apple Watch to send messages via satellite when you’re out of cell range—perfect for hikers or adventurers. Plus, it could support faster 5G, making it a strong rival to watches like Garmin. These changes show Apple’s focus on blending health and tech to improve daily life. Stay tuned for more updates as these products evolve!

  • AirPods Pro 2 now helps with Hearing in the UK

    AirPods Pro 2 now helps with Hearing in the UK

    Apple has shared exciting news: the AirPods Pro 2 now comes with a special hearing aid feature that’s easy to use and available in the United Kingdom.

    AirPods Pro 2 Hearing Support

    Sumbul Desai, a top expert at Apple, said, “We’re thrilled to use technology to improve lives. Bringing this hearing aid option to the UK gives AirPods Pro 2 users a full hearing care experience.” She’s Apple’s vice president of Health.

    This new feature makes everyday sounds clearer for adults who feel they have mild to moderate hearing trouble. Apple says it’s free in countries where it’s offered, and it comes through simple software updates.

    The hearing aid works by using a personal hearing profile. This profile comes from a quick five-minute Hearing Test that checks how well someone hears different sound levels. After the test, users get a result showing their hearing ability and tips on what to do next. The profile also adjusts sound for music, movies, games, and calls on all connected devices.

    Apple first rolled out these hearing tools in the US and a few other places in late October with iOS 18.1. Then, in December, iOS 18.2 brought the Hearing Test to more countries like France, Italy, Spain, and the UK, plus the hearing aid feature to the United Arab Emirates. Now, UK users can enjoy both the test and the hearing aid feature.

    To use these hearing tools, AirPods Pro 2 need firmware version 7B19 or higher. The update happens on its own when the AirPods are charging and near an iPhone, iPad, or Mac with Wi-Fi. This update shows Apple’s focus on making life better with smart, simple tech. UK users can now hear the world around them more clearly, all thanks to their AirPods Pro 2.
