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.

In addition to all of these comments here, Yes turning down the tone will help with the “Low Battery” Notification but, as you turn down the tone it decreases the volume of switching modes ( AirPods Pro ) too, so yes that does work but it also decreases other things too, so I agree that Apple should design and create a switch that turns that up/down or on/off. But reporting this here doesn’t do much since Apple only reviews for fails in the system. So if you would like to suggest that feature you can download the Feedback app and make a suggestion for that.

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.

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.

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’m having the SAME problem! And it isn’t even my AirPod Pros that are dying! The case can go to a lower percentage and that annoying dying battery sound will come on 39589392 times, over and over to the point that I can not listen to a single song because of it! It makes me so angry that I want to throw them in the trash! The level of crazy that this brings out of me is wild lol. Is there NO CURE for this problem?!

THANK YOU!!! It sounds dramatic but I have leapt out of my chair from hearing this sound unexpectedly before. I start clenching my whole body when my headphones get close to 10% battery, lol. This has just saved me. Why would there need to be sound effects??? At a default setting of 95% volume?????? I'm wearing the headphones because I'm so sensitive to sounds to begin with.
