    The problem is, with 15.1, I get reminders that I've left my AirPods Pro behind. The problem is...
    They're still in my ears!!!

    I have a real story. The first day I used my brand new AirPods Pro, the first time I put them in my pocket and went to eat out, my AirPods fell out of my jacket pocket. Luckily, an honest person turned them in to the honest cashier. When Find My alerted me 6 miles away from the restaurant, we turned the car around and drove back. My wife had told me when we left home to leave them at the house. She is the smart one! But I had setup the AirPods Pro on my iPhone 12 Pro Max as soon as I pulled them out of the box. Hey, it really really works!
