Apple has officially retired Beats Updater, the software utility that lets users update the firmware of their Beats Wireless headphones, earphones, and speakers.

Beats Updater allows users to plug their Beats product directly into the USB port of their computer to check for firmware updates online, but with Apple's growing tendency to deliver over-the-air updates to wireless products via iOS and iPadOS, the company clearly feels the utility has reached the end of its life.
Beats Updater is still available to download for use with the following products, but Apple says no new versions will be available in future.
- Beats Solo2 Wireless
- Beats Studio Wireless
- Powerbeats 2 Wireless
- Beats Pill 2.0
- Powerbeats
- Powerbeats Pro
- Powerbeats3 Wireless
- Solo Pro
- Beats Solo3 Wireless
- Beats Studio3 Wireless
- BeatsX
If you have one of the Beats headphones or earphones listed below, pairing them with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch will update them automatically. If you have an Android device, download the Beats app for Android from the Google Play store to update your firmware.
- Powerbeats
- Powerbeats Pro
- Powerbeats3 Wireless
- Solo Pro
- Beats Solo3 Wireless
- Beats Studio3 Wireless

Apple recently released over-the-air firmware updates for AirPods (second generation), AirPods Pro, Powerbeats, Powerbeats Pro, and Solo Pro. The new firmware adds automatic switching support to these models and requires iOS 14, iPadOS 14, macOS Big Sur, or later. In addition to automatic switching, AirPods Pro also gained a new spatial audio feature.
