AirPods 3 Owner/location tracking

I bought a pair of AirPods 3 from a friend and my friend is still the owner connected to the AirPods from her original purchase. How do I change the owner to my iPhone so they can’t see it’s location?

Return these of Factory Settings...

  1. Go Here: Unpair, Restart, or Reset your AirPods - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Return AirPods to factory settings
  3. Proceed from there as necessary


If you are so concerned, then give these back to your "friend".
