Apple releases updated firmware for Siri Remote

Your redesigned Apple TV remote could be getting some software-based fixes.

Apple on Tuesday released a new version of its firmware for its recently-released Siri Remote. The Siri Remote, which was released alongside the second-generation Apple TV 4K, is available both with the set top box as well as by itself.

The new firmware, dubbed “10M11103,” is thought to include performance improvements with minor bug fixes. With the new iPod-like click-wheel design on the Siri Remote, this firmware update could be related to that, as it could be a little unreliable for users. In the past, Apple had to update Apple TV’s software to improve the integration between the set-top box and remote.

Apple has yet to say how the Siri Remote firmware can be updated, but it’s thought that it would be by charging the remote with the Apple TV turned on.

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
