AirPods Hold Their Left/Right Assignments
So today I learned something pretty interesting: AirPods that have been assigned iOS 11 exclusive left/right assignments such as "Next Track" and "Previous Track" still keep their assignments when used with an iOS 10 device. I learned this because I have a 10.5" iPad Pro on iOS 11 while my...- matthew2926

Airpods with TV - lipsync issue

Hi all, I've been a recent lurker here -- I recently made the switch to iOS from Android so admittedly I'm a bit of a neophyte in the ways of the Apple.

AirPods microphones do not work with third party apps
I just noticed that the mics on the AirPods do not work with third party applications like Whatsapp (voice note), Instagram (video), Snapchat (video/voice note), etc. and only works with Apple's own apps: phone, iMessage, camera and voice memos (haven't tried with GarageBand).- Lionel Messi

So I was searching eBay for a set of AirPods the other day because I'm heading out of town next week and was desperate for a pair to take with me. Most were selling at ridiculous prices and I wasn't willing to pay $300 for a $159 pair of earbuds. So I scoured the internet and saw a post by 9to5...- mattan_lines
