Find AirPods – How to do it!

Posted by "OneEarPod" on

The size of the Apple AirPods is very practical for the user. They can be easily stored in a jacket pocket or handbag. Unfortunately, their size is also the reason why individual headphones or even a whole bundle cannot be found. If you are currently facing the challenge of looking for AirPods, then be sure to read on.

We'll tell you what tools are available for locating your AirPods and how you can use these functions. However, this requires that you have made a setting after the purchase or before the loss. If, despite all your efforts, you still lose your AirPods, we'll tell you where you can order replacement parts .

How to find your AirPods!

The smaller the item, the more difficult it is to search if it is lost. Unfortunately, Apple 's AirPods are very small and therefore they often get lost.

Fortunately, the developers of the earplugs took this into account and built in a technical option for locating AirPods. If you have lost one or both AirPods, you can use two different search methods.

Requirements for the search

In order to find your headphones, the following requirements must be met:

  • You must have the Find My iPhone service activated.
  • A search is only possible if the headphones are not in the charging case.
  • The devices must be within range of your iPhone and connected via Bluetooth.
  • You must have an iCloud account.

Only if the aforementioned points are met can you locate your AirPods and display them on a map. In all other cases, you can only view the last location where the earplugs were used.

Find AirPods on a map

The first search method you should always use is searching on a map. Since you probably won't be sure where you lost your AirPods, you can use them to display either their current location or at least their last location.

If you have forgotten your headphones at a friend's house or at school, you will find out very quickly using the map search. In the first step, you can use this to narrow down the location where you are looking for AirPods. If you can't find what you're looking for there, you can use the second method to find AirPods.

Find AirPods using a sound

If your AirPods are active, you can control them using the “Find My iPhone” function. A beep will then be played over a period of two minutes, becoming progressively louder. You should also find the headphones in the crack in the sofa or under the bedside table.

If you haven't found what you're looking for in two minutes, you can of course repeat the signal tone as often as you like. Even if you initially only found the left or right AirPod, you can start the beep again.

The crucial requirement is that you have activated the search for lost AirPods. You can also use the app “Where is?” from Apple , which you can install additionally. With this app you can display the current or last location of your Apple devices.

This not only helps when searching for AirPods, but also if you have misplaced your iPod or iPad.If you have not yet activated this search function, you should do so immediately and make all your Apple devices traceable.

Reasons why the search might be unsuccessful

If the headphones' battery is empty, you won't be able to locate them. If they are in their charging case, the AirPods do not send a signal for location. Since they are placed in the designated storage location, the earbuds believe that everything is fine. Unfortunately, Apple did not provide for locating the charging case.

If they are out of Bluetooth range, AirPods cannot be searched for via the map. That's why you can't rely on being able to locate the lost headphones anytime, anywhere.

Lost a single AirPod? OneEarPod can help!

If you haven't been successful in your search, then you'll definitely want a replacement for your high-quality headphones as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the manufacturer did not plan for individual components of the set to be lost or defective.  That's why you can't simply buy a left or a right AirPod as an individual part.

This is where we come in, because the idea behind OneEarPod is that of course you only have to replace the components that are broken or lost. That's why we offer you both the headphones and the charging case as spare parts for the different models.

Save money and do good

You'll probably be impressed by the potential savings you can make by purchasing replacement headphones. But that shouldn't be the only reason why you decide against buying a new bundle.

If you only replace the part of your set that can no longer be found or is defective, this will save a lot of resources and avoid waste. All parts that are still available to you do not have to be thrown away, but continue to do their job. We have put together a simple guide for you here on how to connect our spare parts to the other components.

We only stock original parts

So that you can listen to music or take part in video conferences in the usual quality, you shouldn't get a cheap replacement. We purchase entire sets ourselves and then break them down into their individual components. That's why you'll of course also receive the manufacturer's warranty to the usual extent.

Our processes are clearly structured, just like our online shop. That's why your order will be shipped within 24 hours and you only have to wait a few days until you can enjoy the usual sound of your AirPods in both ears again. So if you couldn't find your AirPods, we'll be happy to send you a replacement. Fast, convenient and with a significant price advantage compared to buying a new bundle. And the environment also wins. You don't need any more arguments, do you?
