Hey there, aadil7863.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! Thanks for posting about your AirPods not providing you with an alert about the battery level of your AirPods when they get low. We'd be glad to see how we can help you out with that.
You mentioned that you're not getting a notification when the battery begins to get low on your AirPods. Typically this happens at 20, 10, and 5% respectively. Also, at 10% and right before they power down, you should get an audible notification s welcome in the form of a tone. Do you hear that in those instances, or is the tone absent as well? If it is absent, let's go ahead and Reset your AirPods as that may benefit us in this situation.
Once that is done, use them and test to see if you get either the notification on your iPhone or the audible tone notification at 10%, and let us know what you find out.
Cheers.
Many thanks for getting back to us.
We appreciate the additional details and the extra testing you did. Do you happen to have another device with which you could test your AirPods? We just want to see if the same behavior exists on both. If so, unpair your AirPods from your current iPhone and pair it up with that second device and see if the same issue is present. If it is the same on both devices, you'll likely want to Get Support directly from Apple here for continued support. However, if the issue is specific to just your iPhone, let us know, and we'll delve a bit deeper.
Be well.
ive just tested it on my iPad and it seems to work on there. I drained the case battery down to 20% and then placed the AirPods in my ear, then on my iPad it gave me a notification that the case was on 20%. So I think it’s specific to my iPhone
Thanks for checking that, aadil7863.
With that in mind, it still might be a good idea to Get Support from Apple directly moving forward. You can reach them using this link, and they should be able to assist.
Have a great day.
Hey Brian,
so I do get the audible warning for the AirPods as usual but i get don’t get the little drop down alert for low battery on the AirPods case or the buds. I have once before on 14.0, both the buds and the case would give me that drop down for low battery but I have never had it since. I’ve tried resetting the AirPods twice and I have actually tried to create the perfect scenario for the notice to show up but it just won’t do it
