AirPods Pro 3 – “Find My” and Hearing Test not available on iOS 18.7 despite Apple’s website saying it should work

I have the same issue, am on iOS 18.7.1 and plan to stay there for now.

Could you check what firmware you have for your APP3? Should be 8A353, but a newer 8A358 came out recently. Can you try to have it upgraded and tell us if that changes anything to the displayed model name? I doubt it will affect the missing features for which you'll need iOS26.

8A358 is the latest firmware for APP3 and APP2. My APP2 picked up 8A358, but the APP3 still not. I hope this too is not linked to needing iOS 26.

I’m having the exact same issue. I’d like to remind everyone that Apple promises three months of free Apple Music with the purchase of AirPod Pros 3. Apple Music won’t even prompt the discount. Unless the offer clearly stipulates that one must own a device capable of running iOS 26 or above to claim the offer, then apple is responsible for keeping up their end of the bargain. The apple support app clearly recognizes that I own this Pair of Airpods. I’m Not sure why the Apple Music app can’t do the same thing. If they did indeed advertise them as compatible with hearing test and the find my feature. Then any medical insurance company that payed for or subsidized the cost of the new airpods might might have a bone to pick with Cupertino.

You will have to upgrade to iOS 26.

I have the exact same issue, is there a workaround other than updating to iOS26? My iPhone XR doen't support it. I would like to sign them up to my Apple ID at least as I can't see them in Find my.

No.
