AirPods stop working

Apple AirPods are wireless earbuds that can be paired with your phone or other devices via Bluetooth.

AirPods are designed to work seamlessly with all of Apple's Bluetooth-supporting devices, but that doesn't mean they work perfectly one hundred percent of the time.

At times, there might be no sound in one of the AirPods as they might not be working properly, which could be due to a low battery, a software setting or a dirty speaker mesh. These issues can be fixed easily.

Here are a few ways to troubleshoot your AirPods:

To resolve the glitch your AirPods are experiencing, users can investigate each of these troubleshooting tips to find what fixes their AirPods.

- One of the AirPods has a low battery:

This issue can crop up frequently. Notably, the batteries in your AirPods run down at different rates and there is a possibility that one dies before the other.

You can check the battery level by putting both AirPods in their charging case and bringing the case very close to your iPhone. Then open the case and wait a few moments to see the battery level. In case one of your AirPods is running low on battery, charge it for 30 to 60 minutes to fix your issue.- Toggle the Bluetooth connection:

If you are facing a Bluetooth connection issue, you can solve the glitch by simply turning the Bluetooth off and then on again. This might fix the issue if the AirPods were working improperly due to the Bluetooth connection.

- Reboot your iPhone:

If turning Bluetooth off and back on again doesn't fix the problem, restarting or rebooting the entire device might prove to be helpful. Cleaning your data cache and running software can fix your audio issues.

- Properly clean your AirPods:

It is possible that both your AirPods are working properly but you are facing sound issues because there's a buildup of dust on the speaker mesh. You can clean your Air{Pods with a cloth or toothpick to restore the sound.

- Check the audio settings:

Users might have configured their AirPods to only play audio in one ear. This setting can be changed through your device's Accessibility settings.

Step 1: Go to the Accessibility settings on your Settings app.

Step 2: In the Hearing section, tap on Audio/Visual.

Step 3: Then go to the Balance section and check the slider position. If it is not in the center, slide it back to restore a balanced sound.

- Ensure that your device has the latest update:

Users can also fix their AirPods by updating their devices with the latest iOS update.

- Re-pair your AirPods:

If none of the aforementioned measures could fix your AirPods, you can opt to reset your AirPods to factory conditions and reconnect them.
