Navigate to your device’s app store and download the official Makita app. Once installed, open the app and create an account if required. This allows the app to check against Makita’s servers for the latest firmware versions.

Legacy brushed-motor tools do support software updates.

If your tool is working perfectly, you do not need an update. If you notice battery drain, connectivity issues, or erratic motor behavior, search for a Makita software update download .
