AirPods Questions

I own a pair of the 2nd gen AirPods, is there a way to set the name of the Bluetooth broadcast name on an Android/Windows PC?

Hello CJMustard1452,


To change the name of your AirPods, you need to use an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac and follow these steps:


1. Wear your AirPods, and make sure they’re connected to your device.
2. Do one of the following:
On iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings  > Bluetooth, then tap the Actions Available button next to your AirPods. Tap the current name, enter a new name, then tap Done.
On Mac: Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Bluetooth. Control-click your AirPods, choose rename, enter a new name, then click Rename.
