Lost my AirPods Pro but if I look on Find My it says I have them with me

I lost my AirPods Pro but if I look on find my it says I have them with me so 0km away from me but if I go to another place or house it still says 0km and comes with me on the map although I don’t have them with me because I lost them.

Anyone know how I can fix this?

"Find My is the only way that you can track or locate a lost or missing device. There is no other Apple service that can find, track, or otherwise flag your device for you." ALL the requirements must be fulfilled for Find My to even have a chance to work.

- Find My [device] must have been set up before they went missing.

- They must be in range (<100') or all you will see is "last location".

- They must be charged (see the link for details).

- They are not inside their Charging Case (Airpods Max Smart Case is not the same thing.).

- They have not been reset by somebody who found them.

- To find a single Airpod, put the one you have in the charging case first.

- You cannot track a lost case with Find My.


Does it say that is the current location? Realize the location finder is not very accurate since there is no GPS. Getting it to say they are in the same house is pretty good. Once you get down to that level of location you should try playing a sound through them.


Have you checked in all your pockets?

I had checked all my pockets but wherever I went the last known location of the AirPods changed to where I was at that time. I just found them on a really different place where I forgot them a week ago. It still said that they were fully charged and online with me but when I found them they were dead no power at all. But it’s really nice I found them back! Just curious why the location was following me wherever I went even though they were not even close to me at all🧐
