why are my airpods constantly switching between two devices.

Apple. I purchased brand new airpods. I didn't get refurbs. I didn't damage them. I also purchased a new (at the time) 2019 macbook air, and a new (at the time SE2) because both my computer and phone were updated out of existence. that's a grand total of over $2000. my current vehicle's kelly blue book value is $1500. My car is a 1999 model and it still works. I don't have to 'update it' constantly. it works. Why do my headphones no longer work as expected? If I have one device on and connected, and turn on a second device my headphones will constantly connect - then switch - the the new device - then back. This did NOT happen before I recently updated my phone. Did you not test the devices you say you support? I work in development for a software company. when we push a new version update we create a list of supported devices and make SURE that they are thoroughly tested. have you failed to do this? I see that I am not alone in my frustration and I also see that the 'support' you provide is comical at best. For future reference, I HAVE turned it off and turned it on again.

You haven’t told us which AirPods, which devices, etc.


Anyway, see “Turn off automatic switching” here if you wish.

And by the way, I and nearly everyone here are not “Apple”.

ahh yes! that's great! I tried to select which devices with the drop down selector but I was not able to find or select all my devices! as for you not being apple - great! then the sarcasm isn't directed toward you. Thats even better!! the most profitable company in the world can't afford to have a proper support channel! I suppose I'll probably transition away from apple in the future.
