How do I change my AirPod control settings?

Answered by Jeremy Urbaniak

To change your AirPod control settings, you have a couple of options. One way is to go to the Bluetooth settings on your iPhone or iPad. Here’s how:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Tap Bluetooth.
3. Find your AirPods in the list of devices and tap the “i” button next to them.
4. On the next screen, you’ll see various options for your AirPods. Look for the section called “Press and Hold AirPods.”
5. You can select either the left or right AirPod, depending on which one you want to customize.
6. Once you’ve chosen a side, you’ll see a list of available controls. Make sure that “Noise Control” is selected.
7. Underneath that, you can choose which noise control modes you want to use with the press and hold gesture. You can select two or three modes, depending on your preference.

Another way to change your AirPod control settings is through the AirPods settings menu. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Scroll down and tap on “AirPods.”
3. On the next screen, you’ll see a list of options for your AirPods, including “Noise Control.”
4. Tap on “Noise Control” to customize the settings for your AirPods.
5. You can then choose which noise control modes you want to use with the press and hold gesture. Again, you can select two or three modes.

By customizing your AirPod control settings, you can easily switch between different noise control modes such as Transparency mode, which lets you hear the world around you, and Noise Cancellation mode, which blocks out external sounds for a more immersive audio experience.

I hope this detailed explanation helps you change your AirPod control settings to suit your preferences. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
