AirPods 3 skin detection issue

[mich8261]

My AirPods 3 are constantly connecting to and playing content from my iPhone while in my pocket. It also occasionally happens when they are just laying on the table. It is frustrating because I frequently lose my place in an audio book or podcast. Has anyone else had this issue? Is that something AppleCare would cover? Thank you

I think it just doesn't work. My AirPods Skin Detection can't make a difference between human skin and the cotton my sweatshirt is made of. Every once in a while they don't detect that i took them off or in my ear.

I’m starting to think it not skin detection but heat or temperature
