Air pod pros not updating

Updating Airpods:

The updates cannot be updated manually. They update the next time they sync to a device that itself is connected to the internet. This is because they do not have their own IP address. So, connect them to your iPhone, and let all be for few moments. It will sync itself, sure enough.

HI saintsokwitit, welcome to the Apple community

I hope you are doing well 🤗

Normally the update of AirPods is automatic and can not be done manually. If you notice that your AirPods are not updated, I invite you to reset them and wait a few days to see if the update is done. If the update still doesn't happen, it's possible that the AirPods are fake, because it's not possible to update fake AirPods. If your AirPods are real, but you still can't update them, I invite you to contact Apple support.

Try this :

1/ Put your AirPods in their charging case, and close the lid.

2/ Wait 30 seconds.

3/ Open the lid of your charging case.

4/ With your AirPods in your ears and connected to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings > Bluetooth, or Settings > [your AirPods], and tap the More Info button next to your AirPods. If you don't see your AirPods in Settings > Bluetooth or in Settings > [your AirPods], just go to the next step.

5/ Tap Forget This Device, and tap again to confirm.

6/ With the lid open, press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about 15 seconds, until the status light on the front of the case flashes amber, then white.*

7/ Reconnect your AirPods: With your AirPods in their charging case and the lid open, place your AirPods close to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Follow the steps on your device's screen.

Follow those instructions. It will eventually be updated automatically to the latest firmware. It takes a long time so stop looking at it. I thought my AirPods wouldn't update but when I checked it the next day, it is running the latest firmware.
