Can Airpods be used with an android?
Hi,
I am wondering if I purchase Airpods for my boyfriend if he will be able to connect them and use them with his Samsung?
Thank you

Sure.
First, place the AirPods into their charging case. Open the lid, then find the little pairing button on the back of the case. Hold that in for a few seconds and you’ll see the light on the case flash white. This means that the Pods are in pairing mode, so open up the Bluetooth settings on your Android device. Tap the AirPods in the device list, and accept any prompts that come up.
This will pair the AirPods to your Android phone (or Windows PC that supports Bluetooth), and they’ll act like a standard pair of Bluetooth buds. Apparently, they still pause music when tapped, even on non-Apple devices. Of course, the AirPods can’t activate Siri or instantly switch between devices when used with Android, but at least you can listen to music with them.
