How can I stop the constant AirPods mute/unmute popup on my iPhone/iPad

Try to restart your iPhone to see if the issues persist

I've been having this issue for probably over a year. I do believe there is a fix that I've come across on several other sources so adding here since it's not here.

Go in to Settings, And then your AirPods. If not already showing in Settings go to Bluetooth and then your AirPods.

Under the section called "Calls Controls", the last one is "End Call" and by default it's set to Press Twice. Change this to Press Once.

My understanding is this work around will fix the the Mute / Unmute for coming back up. I'm currently testing and will report back if that is not the case. I would be curious if switching back to Press Twice would bring the problem back as just the adjustment may be jiggling something in the code to make it seen and accepted vs. it keep coming up like its the first time.

The other possible fix might be removing the AirPods from you Apple Account and re-adding them. Not sure I believe that would fix it as you'd at least see it once thinking its new AirPods when you add back.

Right now I'm hoping I NEVER see this screen pop up again.

The tip I posted above has not fixed the issue. I've not seen it probably in a week or more but I believe it will be back soon as it has always been intermittent. In my experience and confirmed with a few people on reddit as well, but seems most people that seem to see this bug have the AirPods auto connect back and forth between their different iOS and/or Mac devices. I use my between my iPhone and my iPad several times a day so wonder if something in that switching is related. Feel like if I only used them with my iPhone I might not see an issue.

I’m having the same issue but there doesn’t seem to be a fix anywhere. Has anyone figure out how to fix this?
