Airpods Pro keep falling out of my ears!

You know your product has a major flaw when it spawns an industry of 3rd party vendors with solutions to solve it. There’s memory foam ear tips to replace Apple’s slippery silicone tips, large hooks to attach to AirPod and curl around whole ear, or small hooks that curl into pocket in middle of ear. Besides falling out, I find trying to use tiny buttons on AirPod impossible or unresponsive so I adjust volume, songs etc using my phone which is awkward.

As I posted earlier I’ve had the same issue. I called Apple support and although they were sympathetic to the issue they couldn’t offer any solution. However I got these hooks which work perfectly at keeping the AirPods Pro in my ears. https://www.amazon.co.uk/ZtotopCase-Accessories-Pro-Ear-Hooks/dp/B08GBYWMRH/ref=asc_df_B08GBYWMRH/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=463094914543&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13673576531796305921&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046960&hvtargid=pla-978915456191&psc=1

Hi All - I had a problem with AirPod fallout, so I splashed more cash out on a pair of Pro's to see if that solved the problem. To be honest, I find the Pro's fallout more than my AirPods. A friends kid dropped one in his soup, so I know I'm not the only one with this problem.

Anyway, I found a solution. Orellio.com do a clip that really has really worked for me. I usually just wear one when I am on a long phone call or on my bike but for running they are great and stay put for hours. They were pretty cheap, so definately worth a try if you running out of ideas.

You can buy silicon earhooks that fit over the airpods, they work great, but won't fit in the charge case with them on. So a semi-solution but annoying since you have to take them off and put them on every time you use them. Also doesn't solve the shallow fit problem of no base from not fully contacting the inner ear bone.

I bought some Comply eartips and they sort of helped. But when my Airpods Pro still fell out, I bought some Proof Labs "Anti-Slip Ear Hooks" and, at least for sitting still during Zoom sessions, they seem like a better solution. They slip on and off very easily - and three sets were in the packaging. I'll test eating with them and then walking around the house next, before I do anything more daring - like walking or cycling.

Like others, and as a rabid Apple fan, I'm disappointed that the Airpods Pro as designed, had such a serious design flaw.

So, I wear my Airpods Pro in opposite ears and upside down. They stay in my ears perfectly, I can run, jump or exercise and they stay. Otherwise, if I wear them the "proper" way, they fall out all the time. It also, makes the music sound better because they are deeper in the ear. They pass the ear fit test and everything.

I have everything APPLE, but this is why I purchased the BOSE Quiet Comfort Earbuds. They sound great, they noise cancel, and the FIT and don't fall out! They have a half circle hook that you insert and twist in the ear, which keeps it in place. Never had issues, even on the jogger.

I just bought some ear hooks on Amazon that are great I’m going to leave the link here:

Pass it on!

so after a few days of my last post to this issue I found that using the Left Earbud in the right ear and vice versa, they stay on a lot better than the other way around.

I purchased 3rd party tips off amazon and they work 100x better! They are made of foam (like ear plugs to sleep). Highly recommend!

The sound doesn’t change. The tips are the same shape as the original, just made of foam not silicone. They really work great and do not have that sensation of slipping out. At $13, it’s worth a try!

I bought comply ones & they’re amazing! So much more comfy & fit miles better!

I’ve had to purchase third party memory foam tips to see if that fixes the issue, not that I should have to in the first place….
