AirPods cant Connect properly.

I been lately having this problem where i open my AirPods Pro case, put them in my ears, and they won’t connect to my phone as they should (and as they normally do). The only way I can get them to connect from there is if I click “forget this device” on the airpods, and completely reconnects them from the beginning.


This problem has happened to me since I tried connecting them to a pc, I don’t know if that has something to do with it though.


I would really appreciate if anyone knows how to fix this!


Thanks. :)

(1) If you haven't already, you might want to try wearing your AirPods, 

and 

on iPhone:   Try Settings > Bluetooth > tap "Not Connected"


(2) You might want to check that you are only connecting AirPods to one device at a time. (Eg may not be switching between multiple devices.)


(3)You might want to reset your AirPods, then see if that has helped:
