AirPods Pro low battery notification TOO LOUD!!

Does anyone know how to turn off or lower the low battery notification sound on the Airpod pros? It is way too loud.

I use them for sleep (in fact I can’t sleep without ANC). But the noise is incredibly loud and wakes me up. I don’t understand why this feature is necessary, or cannot be simply turned off…


The accessibility setting used to lower the noise, but it no longer works. It should allow you to set it to 0% anyway, not 10% or whatever it was before.


Please fix this Apple! It’s such an unnecessary problem and easy fix.

Am I the only one who doesn’t have the tone volume option. Like it’s just not there and my AirPods make the noise when it gets to 30% surely that’s not normal. Like that’s not even a low percentage why are u telling me to charge it now that could probably last me quite a long time but instead I have to deal with the BEEP BEEP every two seconds. Like I can’t go one song without hearing it it’s actually stressing me out can someone please tell me what to do

I need to know this too. It seems to be a common complaint for the last couple of years. It is extremely loud and scares the **** out of me every time. What’s worse, I’m on the spectrum and use these to help when I’m overwhelmed and overstimulated. But then if the battery is low it’s just adding another extremely uncomfortable sound and makes me feel more stressed out.

APPLE MAKE IT STOP PLS

Yes, this needs to change. The 'low battery' notification is at maximum volume and is not only jarring but can damage your hearing. I have seen one answer to this question, which I tried, but did not work (go to settings>accessibility>airpods; I tried this, there is no 'airpods' menu option in accessibility.


This is the main reason I am refusing to buy a new set of airpods. There is no reason to have that notification be so loud every time when emergency alerts are at a lower volume, and it completely defeats the purpose of wearing airpods to sleep or relax.

Hello Kevinkirkmil


Let's follow the steps below to turn off the low charge sound for your AirPods Pro: Charge your AirPods and learn about battery life - Apple Support


"The MagSafe Charging Case for AirPods Pro (2nd generation) plays a sound when it begins to charge, or when the battery charge is low. You can turn off this sound:

  1. With your AirPods in your ears and connected to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings.
  2. Tap the name of your AirPods.
  3. Turn off Enable Charging Case Sounds.

"

Cheers.

OMG painfully loud! It hurts! Unbelievably loud, never has any music/sound from my Airpods Pro 2 Gen been too loud except for the painful ear/brain piercing low battery alert alarm. This is truly shocking that it exists as such because it could cause physical harm/ damage. Please tell me there is a way to change it, cancel it, something??
