AirPods Not Working? Easy Ways to Reset Your AirPods

If you are AirPods 1 or AirPods 2 user, and you don't know how to reset the device, you are coming to the right place. Quoting the Tech Radar, here are some easy steps to reset AirPods and AirPods 2.

How to reset Airpods

You should ensure that the AirPods have been charged for at least 15 minutes until the light on the back of the case flashes.

Then, open the casing. Press and hold the small button on the casing for 15 seconds until the LED light change from white to yellow.

After that, you can sync it with new Apple devices. Bring the two devices closer together and connect via Bluetooth.

As an additional step, if you want to change the AirPods name, go to Settings > Bluetooth> then click the info ('i') button next to the AirPods to change the device name.

How to connect AirPods to Android

Open the AirPods case and make sure the AirPods are inside the case, not outside. Then, when you're ready to pair:

• First, press the white button on the back of the AirPods case. The only LED on the case will shine white. You have to keep holding the button until the LED flashes white. After that, you're ready to pair your AirPods with your Android phone.
• Open the Bluetooth menu on your Android phone. Swipe to open the quick settings menu, press and hold the Bluetooth icon, or find a Bluetooth connection via Settings. The sub-menu is called something like Connections/Connected Devices/Device Connectivity, and then Bluetooth.
• Make sure Bluetooth is enabled, and search for available devices. AirPods will show as an option as long as the AirPods case is still flashing white.
• Tap “pair” and allow your phone and AirPods to connect. It should. AirPods should now be connected to your Android device and will always reconnect automatically when the phone's Bluetooth is on.
