Good afternoon,

I’ve searched everywhere (so google) and here is my issue.

My AppleTV is connected with my Appleid. My wife has Airpods and connects them to the AppleTV. Once she does that, they show up on all my devices.

any way to prevent this?

Thanks

I think that’s to be expected when the AirPods make themselves available on all devices. I haven’t found a way to not allow this on specific devices with the same ID.

Yep, pretty much if she connects to anything with your Apple ID it'll connect to all your devices. Had that same issue with my GF, I just take her off.
