Apple rolling out new AirTag 2 firmware update
Source: 9to5Mac
Up until today, Apple had released only a single firmware update for the AirTag 2 since its January launch. Now, a second firmware version is rolling out to owners of Apple’s tracking device. Here are the details.
AirTag 2 gets 2nd firmware update
As spotted by MacRumors, Apple is rolling out firmware version 3.0.49 to the AirTag 2.
Today’s update comes after Apple rolled out firmware version 3.0.45 last March, which in turn arrived two months after the product’s release.
As is often the case with fresh firmware updates, there are still no details on what this one might include.
Firmware version 3.0.45, however, updated the unwanted tracking sound “to more easily locate an unknown AirTag during Precision Finding,” along with the usual, unspecific “bug fixes and other improvements.”
Apple will likely update the “What’s new in firmware updates for AirTag” support page soon, and we will update this post once the company releases more information.
How to check your AirTag’s firmware version
Per Apple’s official guide:
- Open the Find My app.
- Tap the Items tab.
- Select your AirTag in the list of items.
- Tap the name of your AirTag; the serial number and firmware version will appear.
Note: Apple currently doesn’t offer a way to install the update manually.
