Cannot remove AirPods from account. No remove button.

It even says that the account with my email will know the location of the device.

Hi, Artegal.


Per Remove a device from Find My iPhone on iCloud.com - Apple Support


"Remove a device from the Devices list

If you’re not using a device, you can temporarily remove it from your account so it doesn’t show up in your Devices list. When the device goes online again, it reappears in the list if it has Activation Lock turned on (for an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or Apple Watch) or is paired with your iOS or iPadOS device (for AirPods or a Beats product).

  1. Turn off the device, or put AirPods in their case. The device must be offline before you can remove it from the Devices list.
  2. In Find My iPhone on iCloud.com, click All Devices, then select the device you want to remove.
  3. If you don’t see All Devices, it’s because you’ve already selected a device. Click the name of the current device in the center of the toolbar to see the Devices list, then select a new device.
  4. Click Remove from Account.
  5. The Remove from Account button.

Note: You can also remove your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac by turning off iCloud completely on that device. Turning off iCloud turns off all iCloud features on the device."


We hope that helps.


Cheers.
