Your Deepthroat Trainer receives firmware updates over-the-air (OTA) when connected to Wi-Fi. Updates bring new features, improvements, and bug fixes.
How updates work
Automatic checking
Each time you power on and connect to Wi-Fi, the trainer checks for available updates during the preflight phase.
Update process
When an update is available:
- The screen shows "Updating" with progress information
- New firmware downloads automatically
- The device restarts with the new version
Warning
Do not power off the device during an update. Wait for it to complete and restart automatically. Interrupting an update could cause issues.
Beta features
Active subscribers are often enrolled in early (beta) releases during rollouts. See the Software 2.0 Preview for details on current beta features.
What updates include
Firmware updates may include:
- New features — Training modes, UI improvements, customization
- Bug fixes — Resolved issues from previous versions

Version information
Your current firmware version is displayed during device startup. Note this information when contacting support.
Manual update check
To force an update check:
- Ensure Wi-Fi is connected
