It’s no secret that Airpods are one of the most popular pieces of technology on the market right now.  Millions of people have already taken the plunge and purchased a pair, and for good reason. AirPods offer an unbeatable combination of convenience, sound quality, and style.

But what if you’re having problems with your AirPods? What if they’re not working properly or they keep cutting out? In this article, we’re going to take a look at some of the most common AirPods problems and offer some helpful tips on how to fix them.

If it looks dirty, wipe it off with a soft, dry cloth before putting them into the charging case and trying again. Also, make sure that the Lightning connector on your AirPods case is properly aligned with the charging port on your iPhone or iPad. In some cases, the connectors can become misaligned, which can prevent the case from charging. If those things check out, then try resetting your AirPods case by pressing and holding the setup button on the back for at least 15 seconds. If that doesn’t work, try plugging your AirPods case into a different power source (e.g., a different outlet or a computer USB port).

If your AirPods keep cutting out, it could be because they’re not properly paired with your device. First, make sure that your AirPods are turned on and that they’re within range of your iPhone or iPad (they have a range of about 33 feet). Then, open the lid of the AirPods case and hold it close to your device. On your device, go to Settings > Bluetooth and make sure that Bluetooth is turned on. Once you’ve verified that Bluetooth is turned on, tap on the “i” icon next to your AirPods in the list of devices. If you see a message that says “Not Paired,” tap on “Connect.” If that doesn’t work, try restarting your iPhone or iPad, and then try again. If you’re still having problems, it could be because of a software issue. In that case, calling  Apple support might be your best bet.

AirPods keep falling out

If you find that your AirPods keep falling out, it might be because they’re not properly fitted in your ear. To fix this, try adjusting the position of the AirPods in your ear. They should sit snugly at the base of your ear with the speaker pointing up towards your ear canal. If they’re still not staying in place, you can try using the Ear Tip Fit Test in the Bluetooth settings on your iPhone or iPad to make sure that you’re using the right size of ear tips. If you’re still having problems, then you can try using one of the third-party ear hooks or clips that are designed to help keep AirPods in place.
