How can I prioritize my AirPods over other Bluetooth devices?

My daily use case.


I'm at home, in a meeting or listening to the music with my AirPods on, on my iPhone.


Now I take my phone to the car and start driving, with my AirPods still on, listening to my meeting or music.


  • My phone connects to my car's Bluetooth audio; disconnects airpods. I reconnect manually
  • My phone connects to my car's CarPlay audio; disconnects my AirPods again. I reconnect manually
  • I put my "Meta View" smart sunglasses on; my phone disconnects my AirPods again; I reconnect manually.


Is there a way to tell my iPhone "if I'm wearing my AirPods - I don't want any other device to override my audio output".

Or "If I'm connected to Apple CarPlay or car Bluetooth audio - I don't want my sunglasses glasses to override".


In a sense, just set priority, which one is more important?
