The current firmware for RBR50 is 2.3.5.30. Connect a web browser (Safari, Chrome, etc.) to the Orbi, which may be "orbilogin.com". (I prefer to use the actual IP address which in my case is 192.168.1.1), enter "admin" for the user ID and the admin password for the Orbi (which is, of course, different from the WiFi passwordl) The web Home Page will display the router version in the upper right. If it is 2.3.5.30, then the RBR50 firmware is current. If it is not, then navigate to the Advanced Tab->Administration->Firmware Update.
Questions about the Orbi IOS app are probably better addressed to the actual "Orbi App" user forum. My experience is that most of us on this forum use the web interface most of the time.
Good Luck
