Set up Airpods for Find my iphone

I am trying to use the new "Find My iPhone" for my Airpods. However, I had not set the AirPods up on the app prior to today. The device (Airpods) are listed on my iPhone but I haven't been able to set them up on the app to find them.

Hello,


If you have "Find My iPhone" activated before setting up your AirPods, they will be added automatically.


See this:


  1. Launch the Find My iPhone app.
  2. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
  3. Tap your AirPods in the listing.
  4. Go to your iCloud and sign in with your Apple ID.
  5. Open Find iPhone.
  6. Click All Devices.
  7. Select your AirPods.


If your AirPods are lost


Good luck.
