Linking AirPods to Your Apple Account

Select "Bluetooth". This option is at the top group on iOS and in the second group on Mac. You will need to turn Bluetooth on to connect.Advertisement

You will also see a notification on your iPhone and/or your Mac, provided that it supports Bluetooth LE.- If your AirPods are currently connected to another device, hold the button on the back to enter pairing mode.
Accept the notification to connect. If you do not get a notification, but the device is listed, tap on the device to connect the AirPods.- Your AirPods will now be listed on the "Find My" app and will auto-connect to your iOS devices. To locate them, your phone needs to be within Bluetooth range.
