    AW10 is using built-in speaker by default

    I’ve got AW10 recently and I am surprised that when I have my AirPods Pro in my ears and try to turn on some music on the watch it will start playing from the watch speaker by default. It was reliable on my previous AW6. Every time I have to manually select output device. watchOS 11.1

    Air pod pro 2 - Find my works on iphone, not macbook pro

    I just bought the pro 2nd gen, and paired with my iphone and macbook pro. I can see it in the Find my listing on the iphone, but not on my laptop, and when I log in to my apple ID on the apple website, the airpods are not listed as a trusted device - and ideas why?

    Could there be any surprise announcements at the "Glowtime" Event?

    Like, could Apple surprise us with any features/products at the upcoming events that aren't rumoured/are rumoured but highly unlikely to make it, like AirPods Max Gen 2?

    MutePod - Use the AirPods mute/unmute feature on all applications

    Hi everyone, I'm the developer of the MutePod app, a Mac menu bar app that puts you in control of your audio input devices.

    Post your Apple Ecosystem!

    Hi all! I’m wondering what Apple products you use daily and can’t live without! I did something similar last year which was pretty fun so I thought I’d continued the yearly tradition to include new purchases. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max (guess the colour 😂) Apple Watch Series 7 - Green...

    As of iOS 17.3, family member’s AirPods devices are no longer listed in the Find My list for Devices. Previously, Family Member’s AirPods devices were shown in the Devices Tab of Find My under their name. The devices are listed on their own iPhones under their own Find My app, but the AirPods...

    Anyone keeping extra spare sets of 2nd generation AirPods for when they are no longer available?

    Maybe I’m crazy, but I greatly prefer the 2nd generation AirPods over the 3rd generation AirPods due to comfort and method of interaction. The tap to interact is so much better to me cause I can tap of them as I’m walking whereas the 3rd generation ones are controlled by squeezing the stem and I...

    Hi everyone. My AirPods Pro 2 USB-C case firmware keeps downgrading and upgrading on its own after the 6B34 release (updated on release day). When this happens, AirPods microphone stops working properly, for example: during a call people hear me very low, they literally don’t understand what...

    Hi everyone I am wondering if it is possible to have Airpods paired with a Samsung phone but also with MacBook? Will it automatically switch when I want to use it with MacBook or will I have to do that manually every time? I hate iphones but love MacBooks and Airpods just don't know how it...

    Siri No Longer Announcing Notifications Through Air Pods

    This on an iPhone 14 Pro running iOS 16.6. Since I got this phone I've had it set up so that Siri announces Notifications via Air Pods if I'm listening to Music. This has always worked. Until this week. Siri no longer announces any Notifcations. I used to get Notifications from Home...

    Which AirPods should I try?

    Hi everyone! I am still using my 2nd generation AirPods after many years, but now unfortunately the battery health on them is not the best. My right AirPod usually runs out of battery while the left one still shows as having 30%+ left. I am half tempted to try the AirPods Max but would like to...

    Will 2nd Gen AirPods Pro support ‘Siri’?

    With the release of iOS and iPadOS 17 this fall, we will now be able to just say “Siri” to activate everyone’s favorite virtual assistant. I recently downloaded the developer betas on my iPad mini 6 and iPhone 14 Pro, and connected AirPods Pro 2 didn’t support it. You still have to say “Hey...

    Pro 2: optimized charging is broken

    I had my AirPod pro 2 case replaced because the case would endlessly drain when optimized charging was on, even though it wasn’t actually charging the AirPods. This isn’t related to a general battery drain issue as the case would stay the same percentage if it wasn’t used. Now my 2nd case is...
