The popularity of Apple AirPods is increasing day by day. Not only do they deliver great sound, but their compact and portable design also makes them a great choice for everyday use. But since they are small, most people miss them. In this guide, we will tell you all the ways you can easily find your lost AirPods.

Using Find My App

Apple has introduced Find My app to track all its devices. If your AirPods are online and linked to your Apple ID, this app can show you their location.

• Open the Find My app: Open the Find My app on your iPhone, iPad or Mac.
• Go to the Devices tab: Select the Devices tab at the bottom of the app.
• Find AirPods: Find and click the name of your AirPods in the list. This will show the last known location of the AirPods.

See the location of AirPods on the map

If your AirPods are online, you can see them on the map. For this:

• Go to the Map section in the Find My app.
• View the location of the AirPods and try to get there via the map.

Play the sound

If you think your AirPods are nearby but can’t see them, there’s a Play Sound option in the Find My app.

• Click Play Sound: This will play a sound on your AirPods, making them easier to find.

Difference Between Online and Offline AirPods

Using the Find My app, you can see the location of your AirPods directly if they’re online. But if the AirPods are offline, the app will only show their last known location. In this case, the location of the AirPods may not be their original location.

Search within Bluetooth range

In case the AirPods are lost, it’s important to remember that their Bluetooth connection works up to about 30 feet. If you don’t remember the location of your AirPods, locate them within this range.

Check the AirPods connected to your device

If you have more than one Apple device, you can see which device AirPods were most recently paired with. This can also help in locating them.

In case an AirPods is lost

If you’ve lost just one AirPods, use the “Play Sound” option in the Find My app. AirPods will emit a sound and you will be able to find it.

In case of losing the AirPods case

If the AirPods case is lost, it is not possible to locate the case in the Find My app because the case does not have a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection. In this case you will need to contact Apple support or buy a new case.

In case of disappearance at an unknown location

If you can’t remember where you put your AirPods, check your possible routes or places where you might have used them.

Take care of battery charge

If the AirPods battery is completely drained, tracking them will become difficult. So always make sure that the AirPods are recharged so that the tracking facility is available.

Conclusion

All these steps provide the best guide to find your Apple AirPods. With the help of Find My app, you can know the location of your AirPods or find them by playing a sound on them.
