Hello All,

I just checked my AirPod firmware and the system updated it within 30
seconds of it being displayed on my screen.

How to update the firmware on your AirPods, iMore
By Mikah Sargent, 27 Mar 2019
 
Apple has released a new firmware version for the first-generation AirPods,
updating them from version 3.7.2 to version 6.3.2. The company doesn't
currently offer a list of changes present in the firmware. It also doesn't
currently provide a way to manually update the firmware on AirPods, opting
instead for an automatic update process.
But Apple won't just install the firmware update willy-nilly (if your
AirPods died mid-update it could cause all sorts of problems); you'll need
to make sure of the following:
.       Your AirPods must be in the charging case.
.       The charging case must be plugged in and charging.
.       An iOS device that's been connected to your AirPods must be nearby.
Once all of those conditions are met, the firmware update should
automatically begin at some point (yeah, it's that vague).
Now, while you can't trigger a firmware update with a button press or tap,
you can check what firmware version your AirPods are running and view some
other interesting information about the wireless earbuds. Here's how!

How to check your AirPods' firmware version
1.
Make sure your AirPods are connected to your iOS device (open the charging
case or put your AirPods in your ears).

2.
Launch the Settings app on your iOS device.

3.
Tap General.

4.
Tap About.

5.
Scroll down and tap AirPods.

6.
Check the number next to Firmware Version to see what firmware version your
AirPods are running.

If your firmware version says something other than 6.3.2, your AirPods need
an update! Put 'em in their case, plug it in, place your phone nearby, and
keep your fingers crossed for that automatic update!
