In addition to a software update for the new AirPods Max 2 that will hit the shelves tomorrow, Apple today released a software update for AirTag 2. Here are the details.
The update is now available, there is no option for manual installation.
Following the release of AirTag 2 earlier this year, Apple today launched the first software update for the tracking device.
The software version 3.0.45, detected by MacRumors, replaces the version 3.0.41 that came with the device. Here is Apple's official guide to check your software version:
- Open the Find My app.
- Tap on the Items tab.
- Select your AirTag from the list.
- Click on the name of your AirTag, the serial number and software version will be displayed.
It should be noted that Apple is currently not offering the option to manually install the update.
Apple has not yet shared the release notes for the new software for AirTag 2. However, considering that this is the first update following the launch of the device, it is likely to fix bugs identified after users began using the tracking device in real-world conditions and make several performance improvements.
AirTag 2 was released on January 26 and offers improved range thanks to the company's second-generation Ultra Wideband chip, and it also produces 50% louder sound compared to the speakers of the first-generation device.
Apple also stated that AirTag 2 has "the industry's first set of protections against unwanted tracking, including cross-platform alerts and frequently changing unique Bluetooth identifiers."
AirTag 2 is priced at $29 for a single device and $99 for a four-pack.
