AirPods generally need to be charging and in Bluetooth range of your paired iOS device to update their firmware. The charging case needs to be closed, plugged in, and in range of your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Firmware updates are usually automatic and happen while the AirPods are charging and connected to a WiFi-connected iOS device.
