Basics of AirPods,AirPods 2, AirPods 3, AirPods Pro & AirPods Max Use

AirPods are meant to be a seamless and helpful addition to your daily experience with Apple devices. They're ready to use as soon as you take them out of their case, and when you put one or both in your ears, they start playing audio automatically. When you take one AirPod out, your audio will pause, and when you take both out, it stops altogether. This section of our AirPods guide will go over a few more things you should know about how your AirPods work:

Turn Volume Up & Down on AirPods

You can adjust the volume on your AirPods by asking Siri to do it, either by saying "Hey Siri, turn up (or down) the music", or by asking Siri to raise or lower the volume by a percentage.To learn more,follow our tutorial onhow to raise or lower the volume on your AirPods. If you are having trouble with your AirPods' microphone, you can also see how to fix your AirPods' mic.

On the 2nd-generation AirPods Pro, you can also adjust the volume by swiping up or down on Force Sensor in the stem.

Change Volume on AirPods 2, AirPods 3, AirPods Pro & AirPods Max

If you're using 2nd-generation AirPods or AirPods Pro, you canraise or lower the volume by using the same Siri commands available on the original AirPods. You can also change the volume from your iPhone's Lock Screen by usingthe volume slider in whichever app you're listening to. For a third option, open your iPhone's Control Center and adjust the volume by dragging the volume slider up or down. If you're listening through a set of AirPods Pro that issynced to your Apple Watch, you can open Now Playing on your watch, then use the Digital Crown to adjust the volume. As mentioned previously, if you are using2nd-generation AirPods Pro, you can swipe up or down on the Force Sensor in the stem to change the volume.

AirPods Pro & AirPods 3 Audio Controls

The AirPods Pro and the AirPods 3 use the new Force sensor for a variety of purposes. Press the Force Sensor once to pause your audio, and press again to resume. Double-press the Force sensor to skip forward, andtriple-press to skip back. Squeeze the Force Sensor to summon Siri on the AirPods 3 or Pro and to adjust noise control on the AirPods Pro.

AirPods Pro & AirPods Max Can Switch Between Noise Canceling & Transparency Mode

One of the most useful features ofApple's latest wirelessearbuds and headphones is the ability to switch back and forth betweenNoise-Cancellationand Transparency modes. Noise Cancellation reduces or eliminates sounds coming from external as well as internal sources, while Transparency allows those sounds in, so you're more aware of your environment. To change between these modes, press and hold the force sensor on the stem of your left or right AirPods Pro until you hear a chime. If you're wearing just one of your earbuds, pressing and holding the force sensor will switch the audio between Transparency mode and off. If you have a set of AirPods Max,press the noise control button to switch to Transparency mode.

AirPods Max Digital Crown

The AirPods Max have a feature that isn't shared by the rest of the AirPods family, a Digital Crown. Max owners can play or pause audio, control volume, skip tracks, end and answer phone calls, and summon Siri with the Digital Crown.

Answer Calls with AirPods & Use Siri to Announce Calls

Another useful feature for AirPods and AirPods users is the ability to answer calls with your AirPodsby double-tapping either AirPod and then double-tapping again to disconnect.

You can also have Siri announce your incoming calls.

Other Helpful Siri Commands for Your AirPods

Besides asking Siri to announce calls,you can also use your AI assistant to do other AirPods related tasks. Learn how toturn on Hey Sirion your paired iPhone, then try some of these commands and questions:

• "Hey Siri, turn up (or down) the volume."
• "Hey Siri, skip to the next song."
• "Hey Siri, pause the music."
• "Hey Siri, play my Workout playlist."
• "Hey Siri, how do I get to work from here?"
• "Hey Siri, where's the nearest coffee shop?"

If you own a pair of AirPods 2 or AirPods 3, you won't have to double-tap your earbud to summon Siri, although that option is still available. You can also learn how to answer call with AirPods using Siri.

Switching Audio Output toAirPods, AirPods Pro & AirPods Pro Max

If you have your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch paired with multiple speakers or headphones, you'll want to know how to choose AirPods toplayaudio from on thatdevice. For example, to choose your AirPods for audio output on your iPhone:

1. Open the Control Center on your iPhoneby swiping down from the top-right corner of your screen for the iPhone X or later, or up from the bottom of the screen for earlier iPhones.
2. Tapthe audio card.
3. Touch and hold the pyramid icon when the card opens.

Set Up Find My& Find Lost AirPods,AirPods Pro & AirPods Max

Once you've set upFind My,you'll be able to see the location of all the devices signed in under your Apple ID from theFind Myappor atiCloud.com. In addition, your lost device will send out Bluetooth signals even if it's offline and asleep. These signals can be detected by nearby Apple devices, which will relay a locationto the Find My app to help you findyour missing Apple tech. This is animportant step in safeguarding yourdevices should any of them get lost or stolen, includingyour AirPods,AirPods 2,AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max.

Once you've paired your AirPods to an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch that's signed in to your Apple ID and has Find Myset up, they'll be automatically included in the feature and visible on the Find Mymap.

Here's where this feature gets really useful:if your AirPods are near a paired device and within Bluetoothrange, you can activate a two-minute tone that gets gradually louder, helping you locate one or both earbuds. To turn this on:

1. Tap on your AirPods in the Devices list under the map, then tap Play Sound.
2. If you don't know how to navigate to the location of your AirPods, tap Directions, and Apple's Maps app will open and direct you.
3. If you've only lost one AirPod, or if you've found one but not the other, you can tap Mute Left or Mute Right to home in on the location of the missing earbud.
4. Tap Stop Playing once you've found your AirPods and want the tone to stop, or repeat the process if two minutes wasn't long enough to locate both earbuds.

Note: This feature only works if your AirPods are out of their case or if the case is open. If the case is closed with the earbuds inside, you're out of luck because the tone will not sound. However, the 2nd-generation AirPods Pro now come with a speaker built-in to the charging case, allowing you to easily find them even if they are in the case and the case is closed.

If you see No location foundnext to your AirPods, they're out of range of your connected deviceorout of battery; the map will showthelast time and locationthey were traceable. If your AirPods come back within range or are charged, you'll receive a notification on your paired device.

AirPods, AirPods 2 & 3,AirPods Pro & AirPods Max Battery Life & Charging

Apple's original AirPods last a fairly long time per charge; two hours of talk time or five hours of listening. Even better, if you've fully charged your AirPods case, you'll be able to talk for up to elevenhours and listen for up to 24 hours as long as your recharge the AirPods in the case. The 2nd-generation AirPods can last even longer between charges; three hours of talk time, five hours of listening time, and a more than 24-hour battery life with a fully-charged battery case! Apple's new AirPods, the AirPods Pro, offer up to fivehours of listening time and 3.5 hours of talk time. With a fully-charged case, your AirPods Pro will last for more than 18 hours of talk time or 24 hours of listening time. The AirPods Max offer 20 hours of listening and talk time. So, how do you know your AirPods need a charge? Let's go over how to check your AirPod's battery levels, both the charging case and the earbuds themselves.

How to Check Your AirPodsBattery Level

You can use your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, or Macto check the charge status of your AirPods and their case. To check with one of your iOS devices:

1. Your AirPods will need to be connected to the device you'd like to use to check their charge status.
2. Open your AirPods case, leaving your AirPods inside, and hold the open case near your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.
3. The battery levels of both your AirPods and their charging case will appear on the screen within a few seconds.
4. You can also check these levels using the Batterieswidget in your Today View. Learn how to add the battery widgettoyour Today View or Home screen if you haven't already done so.
5. Another way to check the battery levels on your AirPods and their case is to ask Siri.

How to Check AirPodsBattery Level on Your Mac

1. Open the lid of the charging case or remove your AirPods from their case.
2. Click the Apple icon in your Mac's menubar.
3. ClickSystem Settings (or System Preferences, if you are on an older version of macOS).
4. Click Bluetooth.
5. You'll see your AirPods in the Bluetooth menu, along with a percentage of how full or depleted their batteries are.

Check the Charge Status of Your Charging Case

It's easy to tell at a glance if your AirPods case needs a charge. The new wireless charging case has a status light on the front, while theoriginalcase has the status light on the inside of the lid. For both accessories, the light glowsamber if less than a full charge is remaining and green if it's fully charged.

If your AirPods are inside their case with the lid open, the status light will indicate the charge level of your earbuds rather than the charging case. Again, green indicates a full charge, and amber means that your AirPods need to be topped off.

If you are charging your AirPods case on a wireless charging mat, the Status light will glow for eight seconds when you place the case on the mat, green for fully charged, amber if more charge is needed. If you have the new AirPods Pro, you can tap the case while it's on the mat to see if it's fully charged.

How to Charge Your AirPods

If your AirPod's batteries are depleted, you'll hear a tone in one or both earbuds indicating that your batteries are low. If you don't charge after that, you'll hear one more tone before your wireless earbudsshut down. So how do you go about charging your AirPods? As long as the case has a charge, all you need to do is put your earbuds into the charging case and close the lid.

To charge the AirPod case, plug the charging case into a power source with the USB to Lightning cable it came with. If you've purchased the new wireless charging case, you can also place the case on a wireless charger. If you already have an Apple Watch, you can use your Apple Watch's wireless charging puck to charge the 2nd-generation AirPods Pro.There are several ways to check to see if your AirPods are charging.

In only fifteen minutes, your AirPods will have charged enough for three hours of listening or over an hour of talk time. If you have a set of the new AirPods Pro, only five minutes of charge time will get you over an hour of talk or listening time! Plug your AirPods Max infor five minutes with your Lightning connector and add 1.5 hours of battery life. When you aren't using your AirPods, keep them in the case to preserve their charge. You can also opt to use only one AirPod and switch back and forth from using the left or right earbud to save battery life.

Wireless Charging Case for AirPods, AirPods 2& AirPods 3

Apple announced a wireless charging case for AirPods at the same time it revealed the 2nd-generation earbuds. Now you can charge your original AirPods or AirPods 2 or 3 without using a cable;just fifteenminutes of charging in the new wireless case will allow for up to three hoursof listening. You can purchase a 3rd-generation pair with a MagSafe charging case for $179, a 2nd-generation pair with the wireless case for $129, or purchase just the wireless charging case for your original AirPods for $79.

Wireless Charging Case for AirPods Pro

The wireless charging case introduced with Apple's 2nd-generation AirPods can be used on the original AirPods, as well. Unfortunately, the charging case for the AirPods Pro only works for those earbuds, and not the first two generations of AirPods. The case is included in the cost of the wireless earbuds, which rings in at $249.

How to Reset AirPods,AirPods Pro & AirPods Max

If you're having battery or other issues with your AirPods, you can reset them using your iOS device. However, if you plan on selling your AirPods, there's a few more steps you should take besides simply resetting them. Here's how to reset your AirPods:
