One AirPod is louder than usual.

When I was listening to music with my left airpod, it suddenly went from being a normal volume to being extremely loud and muffled. My right one is still functioning at the normal volume, but the left one is too loud even at the lowest volume. What should I do?

Try and reset your AirPods to see if the issue persists


Restart AirPods

If your AirPods aren’t working right, try restarting them. 

Do one of the following:

  • AirPods (all generations) or AirPods Pro (all generations): Put the AirPods in their case, then close the lid for a minimum of 10 seconds.



Return AirPods to factory settings

If your AirPods aren’t working correctly after you restart them, you can return them to their factory settings. 

Do one of the following:

  • AirPods (all generations) or AirPods Pro (all generations): Put the AirPods in their case, close the lid, then wait 30 seconds. Open the lid, then press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about 15 seconds, until the status light flashes amber, then white.



Hope this works for you!
