Apple releases tvOS 15.2, HomePod firmware 15.2

Apple has released tvOS 15.2 for the Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K.  No release notes seem to be available, which means the update focuses on bug fixes and stability improvements.

tvOS 15.2 can be downloaded over the air through the Settings app on the Apple TV by going to System > Software Update. ‌‌‌‌If you have an Apple TV and have automatic software updates enabled, it should upgrade automatically.

Apple has also updated the HomePod firmware to version 15.2. According to Apple’s release notes, “version 15.2 includes support for Apple Music Voice Plan, a new subscription tier designed to access music using Siri, and extends Siri voice recognition to new languages. This update also includes performance and stability improvements.”

Your HomePod and HomePod mini should automatically update. If not:

  • Make sure that your iOS device is updated to the latest version of iOS.
  • On your iOS device, open the Home app and tap  the house icon in the upper-left corner.
  • Tap Software Update.
  • Tap Install. This will install the update on all of your HomePod speakers you have set up in your home.
