How to reset AirPods

There are several reasons that can lead us to want to reset our AirPods. We may want to sell them, give them away, or even be trying to resolve some bug with the headphones . Whatever the case, resetting our AirPods and resetting them to the factory is very simple.

How to reset our AirPods in just 45 seconds

Whether we are talking about AirPods Pro , AirPods 3 or previous generations, the process to reset them is really simple . The same, moreover, in all headphones. The steps to follow are those:

  1. We put the AirPods in the charging case and close the lid.
  2. We wait 30 seconds.
  3. We open the lid of the case.
  4. On our iPhone or iPad we go to SettingsBluetooth and, if they appear, press the “i” next to our AirPods and tap Bypass device .
  5. Keeping the cover open, we press and hold the back button of the case until the LED indicator flashes red and then starts flashing white.
  6. We release and close the case.

Simple truth? A process that we can carry out very easily and that can be very useful when, for some reason, we find a connection or operation error in the headphones. Also when we want to sell them or give them away or take them to an Apple Store to carry out any repair.

The simplicity of operation of the AirPods, together with the simplicity in terms of buttons both on the headphones and on the charging case itself, makes the restoration process not only easy, but also really short . A process that we will not have to carry out often, far from it, but that it is good that we keep in mind in case we need it.
