Hi EinEinEin,


It appears that you reset your AirPods Pro and now you're receiving alerts that your AirPods Pro were detected with you. You'd like to stop those safety alerts. If you'd like, you can read more about those here: View details about an unknown item in Find My on iPhone - Apple Support


The article has the section below that should help you with your question:


"Turn off item safety alerts on your device

If you don’t want to receive item safety alerts on your device, you can turn them off.


Note: This setting only affects the device you’re currently using. If you don’t want to receive safety alerts on another device, you must turn them off on that device.

  1. Tap Me at the bottom of the screen.
  2. Under Notifications, turn off Item Safety Alerts.
  3. Tap Disable."


Best wishes.

This is happening to me too. About the same time I got the first item safety alert the name of my AirPods was changed from “myPods” to “myPods - Find My.”


When I go to the “learn more about this item” website I get a page not found error.


I’m a bit worried someone switched my AirPods out with their own and now they’re using the AirPods to track me. Is this possible?


thanks
