In 2019, Apple sold almost 60 million AirPods because of its raging popularity. These headphones are more than just a trend because they are made to last.
If you are a first-time AirPod owner, you are probably wondering how to set up your AirPods.
Read on to learn about how to use Apple AirPods.
How to Connect AirPods to iPhone
Knowing how to use Apple Airpods involves going through the process to set them up. For this, you will need your iPhone and it should be up to date. The process is essentially the same for AirPods and the AirPods Pro.
These steps will walk you through how to connect AirPods to iPhone:
- Open your phone to the home screen
- Open the AirPods case with the AirPods inside
- A pop-up will appear on your phone, tap connect
- Read the next three pop-ups if you have the AirPods Pro
After this, your Apple AirPods should be ready to go. You can learn how to use AirPods with “Hey Siri” if you already have it set up on your device. If not, you will be guided through the steps during the setup process.
If your device is signed up for iCloud, your AirPods are set up with your other supported devices under iCloud. This means you can use your Apple AirPods on every device with the same Apple ID.
How to Connect AirPods to Android
Now that you know how to connect AirPods to iPhone, you may still be lost. If you have an Android you can still use Airpods as a Bluetooth headset.
Because you won’t connect them to an Apple device, you can’t use Siri. However, you can still listen and talk. Follow these steps to learn how to connect AirPods to Android:
- Go to Bluetooth settings on your device and make sure it is on
- Open the AirPods case with the AirPods inside
- Press and hold the button on the back of the case
- Wait for the status light to flash white
- Select your AirPods from the list of Bluetooth devices
How to Use Apple AirPods
It’s easy to learn how to use Apple AirPods after the setup process is complete. When the headphones are in your ears, audio is automatically played.
When you take either of your AirPods out, the audio pauses. Play will automatically resume if you put the AirPod back in your ear in 15 seconds or less. If only one of your AirPods is working, they may be in need of repair.
When you take both of your AirPods out, the audio will stop. You should then store them in the charging case to lessen the risk that they get lost.
The AirPods Pro allows you to pause and play audio by pressing the sensor on the stem. You can keep playing audio by pressing it again. You can also use Siri to turn the volume down and more.
Start Jamming!
Knowing how to use Apple AirPods is simple once you finish the setup process. Luckily, the device does most of the work for you. Set up your AirPods now and start listening to your favorite audio with ease.
