Apple just rolled out a fresh software update for the Lightning version of its AirPods Max headphones. The latest version is called 6F25, which replaces the older 6F21 version that the headphones were used before.

Apple doesn’t usually share a lot of details about what’s new in these updates. Since this one is for an earlier model, it’s probably packed with small fixes and tweaks to make the headphones work better. To get the update, place your AirPods Max close to an iPhone, iPad, or Mac that’s hooked up to Wi-Fi. Then, plug the headphones in to charge. The update might take up to 30 minutes to finish.
