Apple seems to have a struggle with auto-detection at times. I had a problem with my latest Apple Watch not receiving notifications, which I could resolve by disabling wrist detection. On your iPad or iPhone, you can disable the Automatic Ear Detection feature. Now turn on the machine to see if the problem still persists. Follow the steps mentioned below to go to this option.

  • Settings > Bluetooth > AirPods > Disable Automatic Ear Detection.

Method #3: Remove the music volume limit as well as the audio balance

When you accidentally toggle on the volume limit on your iPhone or iPad, you will encounter these issues. If your AirPods are connected but not playing audio, check to see if the volume on your AirPods is too low to hear. The Music app on iOS devices has a setting that allows you to control the volume limit. The volume limit is switched off by default by the company. So, if you somehow turned it on, double-check it.

  • iPhone settings > Accessibility > Audio/Visual > Balance left or right. [Keep the Slide spot in the middle to ensure that equivalent sound is sent to both the left and right Airpods]
  • Music > Settings > Switch off the volume. [This involves setting the volume limit on a slider to the maximum]

Method #4: Update Device OS

Because of Apple’s release, if your device is running on an older version of the iOS operating system, it will have bugs. When Apple releases new AirPods updates, they are usually immediately updated when the paired iPhone or iPad is connected to Wi-Fi. Now you must check for updates on your iPhone or iPad, and if any pending updates are available, make sure to install them.

Method #5: Reset Network

If none of the steps above work for you, it’s possible that you’re having networking problems, and the only way to solve the problem is to reset your network settings.

Both Bluetooth devices, WI-FI networks, and call settings will be removed if you try to reset network settings. If the AirPods’ network issues are resolved, you’ll be able to listen to the AirPods’ sounds once more. To Reset Network Settings, follow these steps:

  • Reset Network Only in Settings > General

When you’ve done a complete reboot, you’ll be able to connect Bluetooth with your iOS devices. If there was a problem with the network settings, it’s already been resolved.

What do you do if none of these methods work?

You may have to replace your Airpods if none of the methods mentioned above work for you. Learn about replacing the Airpods here.
