Thanks a lot

[@CrankyUnicorn]

Everyone always talks about what to do about getting XS tips and I can't figure out how to get XL tips cause some of us have blowholes for ears unfortunately.

[@joerobinnettebiden4723]

Can you please report about the issue with the AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C) in connection with an iPhone
XS /Max, where you cannot take calls.
It is a widespread problem and is a software problem that has been present since several iOs versions.

[@sglatitude]

Somehow after the last upgrade, I notice the ANC performance of my AirPod Pro 2 has degraded and it’s not as good as I got it at the first time. Not sure what Apple did with the upgrade but they messed with the ANC features.

[@michaelwiseman4334]

I've never been able to get a proper ear fit to satisfy the Settings app with my AirPods Pro (1st and 2nd gen USB variant). But I find the Small size tips are the only ones that keep the AirPods from falling out of my ears (although any quick movements of my head will cause them to fall out). Overall I love my AirPods Pro 2 but I think the absolute GOAT AirPods are the Max (best noise cancellation, zero ear fatigue, and obviously they don't fall out because they're over the ear).

[@richardbaliko1788]

Is anyone else having issues with conversation boost? Ever since iOS 17 conversation boost is broken for me, it works until it randomly switches to noise cancellation, making it useless…

[@DeeDiazH]

My airpods pro 1 and 2 both, git exponentially worse after a few updates. ANC, call audio quality and spatial features became practically useless after certain time.

[@richardbaliko1788]

I called Apple Support and they said they have an active case on the conversation boost bug, hopefully they will fix it soon!
Their rumored hearing aide mode for iOS 18 will be useless without it!
Thanks for replying!

[@zackmuniz6941]

They definitely don’t like the same for me

[@TheAdnanmajor]

When i speak via the microphone from the earbuds, people say that my voice sounds muffled. Any idea as to why that happens, and how can i fix it?

[@mikemoros]

I dropped one of my buds in butter! Could one microphone or both be damaged? I now always have the microphone be taken from the non-damaged bud. Both luckily still play audio and do noise cancelling just fine.

[@tenthhokage8564]

Make sure your mic is on isolation mode

[@Tacoguz92]

I am having connectivity issues with them

[@raymondisaacs2190]

Can’t even differentiate between ANC, Transparency and Adaptive anymore.
The 6B34 update really messed up the AirPods

[@joerobinnettebiden4723]

4:19 You can also just hold you phone next to the other phone. You don’t need the case

[@elie3423]

Lexy 🎉❤

[@chrislee7982]

You didnt even show how to turn the volume up or down using the stem of airpods

[@Drrck11]

I'll stick with my Jabra Elite 75T. Much less confusing and easier to use.

[@karthikvel1608]

My tws has 120hrs of battery life ❤

[@Jayden-lr2mm]

Stating the obvious but good to know

[@mikemoros]

I’d never heard of the ear in control centre option (and hadn’t heard of a lot of its features) so not that obvious

[@jisiqireview3705]

Could you please cooperate? I have a lot of airpods.

[@MostDeviantAsiedu]

only 8 dollars, that can buy a wired usb earpiece

[@1212Nato]

Instead of this car you’re looking at buying, just get this bicycle instead!
