My fit test suddenly quit working. Called apple. They say it is a known problem. They have sent replacement air pods - don't really see what good that will do if it is a software problem. Anyhow now you know. ANOTHER BIG SECRET KNOWN PROBLEM. Why is this always an unknown KNOWN PROBLEM?

Your new earphones will most likely fail after a few weeks, too. They just want you to go away, so they gave you replacements.

The only fix seems to be to clean them with blue tack every few days-- and that only works for some, but not others.

These rumors sites are too concerned with the same garbage over and over. Real journalism would be to sit there and take note of these forward facing issues
