Apple releases new firmware update for redesigned Siri Remote

Apple has released a new firmware version for its Apple TV Siri Remote, though it isn't clear what the update contains.

The firmware update, which brings the software to version 10M1103, is meant for the redesigned Siri Remote released in 2021.

As mentioned, Apple does not state what features or fixes are contained in the new software update. However, given the lack of detail, it's likely that the update is a minor one focused on bug fixes and under-the-hood improvements.

Apple also fails to specify how users can update their Siri Remote, though the process is likely similar to other accessories — like AirPods — that carry out the process automatically. In other words, the update will just happen in the background and can't be manually installed.

Apple last updated its Siri Remote firmware in August 2021. The previous version was numbered 9M6772.

That remote is ugly. I’m sure Apple is still trying to figure out a good design.

I miss the play/pause button being bottom left like before. I never use mute, so wish it wasn’t in prime position.

still I guess others will like mute being there…

Does your remote work? It’s nice to have first world problems.

I have the Apple tv remote version before this one and absolutely hate it. Mostly the touch surface which is incredibly finicky. Those that have used both, is this one much better?

It is much... MUCH better than the first remote-model. It should have been the one Apple released in the FIRST place!! All the buttons just work better and the button-pushing positive feedback to the fingers work like a proper remote should. NO more finicky behavior. Give it a shot, or go see it at an Apple Store. You'll be sure to want it.
