Anyone else have a problem keeping Apple ear buds/Airpods from falling out?
My ear canals are so big, they come loose and fall out even when I sit still :( I've tried Ear Skinz, Ear Loops, etc to no avail. The only thing that ever fit comfortably and stayed put was the old Jabra ear gels that I used on my Jawbone headset back in the day.
So, I searched and Amazon still sells them!
I ordered a set, punched holes in them to match the openings/sensors on my new Ear Pods and they work and sound great! And they stay in :)
Of course, any skin, attachment that you add to the pods have to be removed before you charge them, but these are very easy to pop on and off...much easier than Ear Skinz, etc. Plus they are more robust and won't have the tendency to rip or tear like thin skins.
