<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2018/08/AirPort-Express-AirPlay-21.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1600)</div><p>Apple’s AirPort line may be discontinued (https://9to5mac.com/2018/04/26/apple-airport-cancellation/), but AirPort Express (https://amzn.to/2C30ktY) got one heck of an update today. Firmware update 7.8 for the latest AirPort Express hardware (2012 2nd-gen model, no longer sold) adds support for AirPlay 2 and Apple’s Home app. The teaser for support (https://9to5mac.com/2018/08/17/airplay-2-airport-express-2/) has been present since iOS 11.4 beta, but support hasn’t been live before today’s version 7.8 firmware update.</p>
