poor fit of apple earphones

I have had iPods, iPhones for many years, and have always wondered why Apple provides earbuds that do not fit in my ears. They simply don’t conform to the shape of my ear canal, and fall out. You would think they would design them for an ergonomic fit, or with changeable rubber inserts, like many earphones I buy. Any thoughts, other than buying third-party accessories?

The EarPods are once size fits all kind of things, and as you have found out, our ears as not one size fits. A search on the Internet will show you multiple things that companies have designed to put on your Apple EarPods to help make them fit others. You can do that, or find headphones that you can purchase that are designed more for multiple ear sizes.

You can provide feedback to Apple about your thoughts concerning changes by going to their feedback link here, http://www.apple.com/feedback and select the appropriate subject area.
