If you are having difficulty hearing sound from your AirPods, there are a few steps that you can take to determine and fix the issue. First, make sure that the AirPods are in pairing mode, and that they are connected to your device.
If they are not, place them in your ears and open the Bluetooth settings on your device to make sure that they are connected. If they are not, try to pair them again by pressing and holding the back of the charging case until you see the status light flash white.
If the pairing symbol is not showing on your device, try a different pair of AirPods, as this could be an indication of a faulty pair. Additionally, make sure that the volume on your device is turned up.
If the pairing symbol appears but you are still having difficulty hearing sound from your AirPods, there may be a problem with the audio settings on your device. First check that the audio balance is correct, which can be adjusted in the ‘Settings’ menu.
Additionally, try switching the audio output for your device to AirPods, which you can do by selecting the output port at the top of the display.
If all of the above steps are completed and you are still having trouble hearing sound from your AirPods, you may need to replace them. You can always check the warranty on your AirPods to determine if you are eligible for a replacement.
Why are my AirPods not working for phone calls?
Before you go and replace them, it is important to inspect if any of the following potential causes are the issue.
First, check to make sure your AirPods are connected to your phone. This can be checked by opening your Bluetooth settings in your phone settings. If it is not connected, you can connect your AirPods to your phone manually.
Second, ensure your AirPods are fully charged. If they are low on battery, they may be unable to connect properly, or be unable to last through the entire call.
Third, make sure you are using the right audio settings in your phone. Open the settings in your phone, and go to the audio settings. You may need to adjust the audio settings so your phone has better access to your AirPods.

Why are my AirPod MIC muffled?
First, make sure that your AirPods are completely inserted in your ears – movement while jogging or walking can easily push them slightly out of position. If so, try resetting them as described in the Apple Support article below.
If that doesn’t solve the issue, then you may have some dirt or debris in the microphones or ports that is causing the muffled sound. Try opening the AirPods and gently brushing out any debris (like lint) with a small brush.
If neither of these solutions solve the problem, then you may simply need to replace your AirPods. Over time, the audio quality from your AirPods can degrade due to normal wear-and-tear.
If you’d like to avoid going out and purchasing a whole new set of AirPods, and your current AirPods are out of warranty, you can always look for a repair service as long as the AirPods are working at all, cleaning or replacing the microphones should improve audio quality.
Can you talk on phone with AirPods?

The design helps to keep wind, ambient noise, and other audio sources from interfering with your conversation. Your conversation also remains private, as the microphone is located away from your ear.
With the AirPods being so small, the microphone is built into the stem instead of being a separate piece. The microphone is an important part of the design, making sure clear audio is always picked up from you, no matter your environment.
