Hello,

Hmm, what headphones do you have?

In any case, they could be dirty. See this:

How to clean your AirPods, AirPods Pro, AirPods Max, and EarPods

If you have AirPods, see this:

AirPods Pro and AirPods Max Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode - Apple Support

Good luck.

I'm having similar issues with my NEW Airpods Pro 2. I honestly don't know why everyone is raving about them. For me, the ANC does NOT work. I have an old (circa 2007) pair of wired Bose cans and they work MUCH better at ANC than the AirPods.


I have tried everything, but nothing works.


When I put them on just now I could hear a car passing outside, the birds chirping, the door being banged. So they don't measure up to the hype, IMHO and experience.
