In the iPod range (of Apple products) Airpods are only compatible with 6th and 7th generation models.


If your iPod is running iOS 6.1.6 then it's a 4th generation model. The reason that your iPod says it's up to date is because iOS 6.1.6 is the last version of the iOS that it can use. It isn't powerful enough to use later versions of iOS.
