New AirPods Pro and AirPods Max Firmware Adds Updated Find My Integration

My Pros seemed to update pretty quickly without any jumping through hoops.
The Find function wasn't working in Find My despite the update and being able to turn on separation alerts, but a restart of the phone fixed that.

Interesting the way the grammar in Find My calls them Airpod Pro's, which is the way I'd always thought they should be named. I guess this is 'grammatically correct', given the users name previous, but when is a company known to change branding for correct grammar?
Why is there an apostrophe in "Pros"?????? Please tell me that's Stephen being a doofus and not a complete failure to proofread at America's largest tech company.
Doesn't appear so. I just updated both my AirPods Pro and my PowerBeats Pro and the "Find" button only shows up for the AirPods.
Those are just screenshots from a user in this forum. He's credited underneath the images.
Come on all - it's a forum I don't think we need to be policing anyone's grammar on here, its juvenile and so boorish.
Had this issue as well - follow the full 'Reset AirPods Pro' procedure on Apple's website, then repair with your iPhone. That made the FindMy integration activate for me. LMK if you need help.I have iOS 15.0.1 and my AirPods Pro are updated to 4A400 as well but they don't have the new "Find My" feature.
My firmware was already updated prior to reading about this, but took forever to get it to actually work. Restarted my phone twice and nothing.
After putting the AirPods in my ear, it finally showed "Find" instead of directions. Something to try for those having issues.

2nd Gen AirPods as well - just no FindMy integration.
Unclear on your exact question, but people have been able to get this updated firmware for APs whilst on 15.1b2.
No worries at all!! Glad it worked for you
I believe the update is for the 2nd gen too but the Find My feature is limited to the Pro and Max
Can take a while, try resetting the APs/APPs/APMs if you are having issues as that often forces them to download the new firmware.
APs need to be in their case and preferably on charge (at least that's what people seem to say).
What I’ve found:
- Two different Play Sound tones:
- When inside case (case needs to be open to connect): louder tone
- Outside case, softer gets progressively louder
- Have to have them connected to Bluetooth from the device you want to play a sound from
- Find Nearby: eh
I can connect, locate and beep the Airpod Pros inside a closed case. Even from a different floor.
