Apple released a new firmware update for its MagSafe Battery accessory designed for the iPhone Air. The software bumps the version to 101.0, a notable jump from the previous 99.0 release. This marks a rare instance of Apple issuing a software patch for its mobile power banks.

Unlike AirPods, which receive frequent updates, Apple accessories rarely see new firmware. The company provided no release notes, so expect no visible changes. This update likely improves background compatibility with the latest iOS versions to ensure stable charging performance.

Apple says the firmware installs automatically while you use the battery. There is no manual trigger. Users can verify the installed version in the Settings app. This quiet refresh keeps the iPhone Air ecosystem current, ensuring seamless integration with Apple's mobile hardware.
