Hi there


Please try this


  • Toggle Bluetooth: Swipe down from the top right of your screen to open the Control Center, turn Bluetooth off for 5 seconds, and turn it back on.
  • Switch Audio Source: In the Control Center, tap the AirPlay icon (the triangle with waves) in the media player widget and manually re-select your AirPods 3.
  • Force Close YouTube: Swipe up from the bottom of your iPad screen to view open apps, swipe up on the YouTube app to close it completely, and reopen it.
