Hello,

It probably means that they aren't really connected:

If your AirPods won't connect

You also might try this:

1) Open the Control Center

2) Long press on the music controls

3) Select the output option (little up-arrow with circles)

4) Select AirPods (if they aren't listed, they aren't connected)

Good luck.
