They are <\/span>functional for calls, music; and you can wear them while doing rigid activities such as running, hiking, or working out. However, just like any other product ever invented, there are instances when they encounter problems too. This isn\u2019t surprising. After all, these earbuds are small. They are made up of complex electronics. So, what can you do when you stumble upon AirPods issues? We’ll list down the ways to fix them.<\/p>\n Before we proceed to the troubleshooting process, it is important to determine the common AirPods issues users typically report. They are usually the same for everyone so you won\u2019t be alone. These are some you should be watchful for:<\/span><\/p>\n When you find yourself running into any of these AirPods issues, don\u2019t panic. Here\u2019s what you need to do:<\/span><\/p>\n You\u2019ve been using your AirPods since the time you bought it then all of a sudden, it won\u2019t sync to your device. This is inevitable and it happens to wireless connectivities. To solve this, go to <\/span>Settings – Bluetooth<\/b> then <\/span>AirPods. <\/b>Check if the feature is enabled. You\u2019ll see an i icon that represents your AirPods. Make sure that the <\/span>Automatic Ear Detection<\/span><\/i> is turned on. If it still won\u2019t connect, try this:<\/span><\/p>\n Check the <\/span>iOS version<\/b> you\u2019re using in the Software Update page. You need to make sure that your phone or tablet supports the AirPods that you are using.<\/span><\/p>\n Note that your AirPods should work with iPads, iPhones, or iPods for as long as they are in the iOS 10 version. These are the Apple products your AirPods should pair with instantly:<\/span><\/p>\n Remember that your Apple devices are meant to connect seamlessly to your AirPods so if they are not pairing smoothly, re-check if your earphones are fully charged. Maybe it would help to connect it to power for one to two hours before use. The Bluetooth should also be turned on. If it still stays the same despite this, might as well restart your device. If none of these steps are effective, maybe it\u2019s time for you to reset your AirPods. Don\u2019t forget to unpair it from your cell phone before doing so.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This can be devastating. The erratic pausing of your AirPods may be caused by the sensors of your earphones. These sensors are responsible for detecting if you are wearing your AirPods or not. That prompts the sound or audio to play automatically.\u00a0 To fix this, go to the <\/span>Settings <\/b>of your device, head to <\/span>Bluetooth, <\/b>look for <\/span>AirPods <\/b>and then disable it. The i symbol beside the name will help you do this. Once you have disabled it, enable it again and see if it works. This should do the trick.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/b>There are many reasons that may have been causing your AirPods to persistently disconnect from your device. Among them are:<\/span><\/p>\n When you find yourself in any of these dilemmas, take the following solutions:<\/span><\/p>\n Go to the AirPods menu from your computer. Hover your mouse on the earphones icon and that should show you the battery percentage of both buds, including your case.<\/span><\/p>\n On most occasions, disconnection issues happen during a phone call. This is when the person on the other line complains that they can\u2019t hear you. There are also times when your earphones are cut out while you are talking to someone. On rare chances, the problem occurs while you are listening to music. Remember that all of these take place even when your device tells you that you are connected to your AirPods. Please try any of the solutions above.<\/span><\/p>\n AirPods have 93 milliwatts that could provide five hours of listening time and two hours of talking time without charging. The said mechanism is responsible for its long shelf-life which is a relief to most tech-savvies out there. But what if your earbuds suddenly stop charging? You should fix the problem by checking the contact points of the device. Where are these contact points?<\/span><\/p>\n You know you\u2019re having problems when you see an amber light when you charge. The not charging status is usually shown in orange light.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can start troubleshooting this by checking the cable that you\u2019re using. It might be causing the problem. Take these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n Note: As for cleaning your AirPods, you can use a microfiber cloth, interdental brush, or a soft bristle toothbrush to do it. But, before doing any of that, evaluate the status of your case.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/b>Is your AirPods\u2019s battery draining faster than you\u2019ve expected? This is one of the common AirPods issues too. It usually depends on how long you\u2019ve had your earphones. Your activities also contribute to it. These are some of the solutions you can try:<\/p>\n One AirPod drains its battery faster than the other – what should you do?<\/span><\/p>\n There were complaints that the left AirPod runs out of battery faster than the other. If this happens a lot to you, the quick fix is to drain the battery of the said AirPod until it’s completely empty. Charge it again. To be even more sure, you can do this to both. This is another way to calibrate your earphones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Basically, the easiest solution is to reset your AirPods. This is simple. Just put your AirPods back in the charging case. Afterward, find the Round Button which is normally located on the backside of the case. You should find the said button there. Hold it for around 10 to 15 seconds until a white light flashes from the case. This status will tell you if you have successfully reset your earphones or not. Once you have returned to the default setting of your AirPods, establish a new connection to your device.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The trick – unpair and reconnect.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We hope that this article helped you solve the AirPods issues you\u2019ve encountered.
