Question

airpod glitch, extremely loud for a second without turning sound up

Okay so I was just watching something on YouTube, and suddenly one of the AirPods became extremely loud for a split second (like deafening loud) and I know it wasn’t part of the video because I replayed that part and it played perfectly… has this happened to anyone before? is it because my AirPods are gen1..? I just don’t want to get jump scared or even get hearing loss because of this glitch

I have heard about this happening sometimes yeah.

If it happenens again you might want to set your AirPods to factory settings to see if the issues persist

Put your AirPods in their charging case and close the lid.
Wait 30 seconds.
Open the lid of your charging case, and put your AirPods in your ears.
Go to Settings > Bluetooth. Or go to Settings > [your AirPods].

- If your AirPods appear there as connected, tap the More Info button next to your AirPods, tap Forget This Device, then tap again to confirm.
- If your AirPods don't appear there, continue to the next step.

Put your AirPods in their charging case, and keep the lid open.
Press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about 15 seconds, until the status light on the front of the case flashes amber, then white.*
Reconnect your AirPods: With your AirPods in their charging case and the lid open, place your AirPods close to your iPhone or iPad. Follow the steps on your device's screen.
