phone keeps switching to iphone mode when airpods are in use

When using my iphone 13 with headphones or AirPods, the phone keeps randomly switching modes to “iphone” - meaning the AirPods will switch off and revert to the sound coming out of the regular phone. Has anyone experienced this before? In the middle of a call I’m trying to switch the phone back to AirPod mode and its really frustrating, missing part of the call.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.


Take a look at: If the sound from your wireless headphones cuts out or is distorted - Apple Support. Also, Restart your iPhone - Apple Support and Update iOS on iPhone - Apple Support.


If the issue persists, follow these steps: Unpair, restart, or reset your AirPods - Apple Support.
