Hey there Bnchar23,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. To get started, we do want to let you know that it would not be possible to manually update your AirPods, as they will be automatically updated when a firmware update comes available, as long as your AirPods are charging and in Bluetooth range of your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.


For help with checking if there's a firmware update available for your AirPods Pro, check out this link here: About firmware updates for AirPods - Apple Support


Find your AirPods firmware version
Firmware updates are delivered periodically while your AirPods are charging and in Bluetooth range of your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

Because firmware updates are delivered automatically, you don't need to update your AirPods.

To use your iPhone or iPad to check that your AirPods are up to date, make sure that you have the latest version of iOS or iPadOS. Go to Settings > Bluetooth, then tap the Info button  next to the name of your AirPods. Scroll down to the About section to find the firmware version.

Latest firmware versions
AirPods Pro (2nd generation): 5B58
AirPods Pro (1st generation): 5B59


We hope that's able to help.


Have a great day!
