Hi Elotb,


Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems like the connecting to the iPhone as individual pods. One thing you could do is to unpair and forget the AirPods, then reset the AirPods and then pair again and see if the issue persists.


"To unpair a Bluetooth accessory, tap Settings > Bluetooth, find the device you want to unpair, and tap the info button  , then Forget this Device. This will remove the accessory from the list of available Bluetooth devices."

Pair a third-party Bluetooth accessory with your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
