AirPods are notoriously easy to lose. The case is slick and slippery, and it’s easy for it to slip out of your pocket. And given how small and unobtrusive it is, it’s easy to forget where you last left it in your house.
How to Find Your Lost AirPods | Apple Support
Luckily, all AirPods, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max models have Find My compatibility built in, which can help you locate your AirPods. And if you have one of the newest AirPods models, you can find your AirPods case with precision search technology while your iPhone gives you precise directions to help you locate your AirPods Pro.
None of the AirPods models can update their location to Find My natively. Instead, they rely on connectivity via internet-connected Find My devices, such as nearby iPhones. You can read more about how AirPods work on the Find My network in this article.
Most of your Apple devices can be tracked using the Find My app. First, open the app and choose your AirPods model from the list of devices. If your AirPods are out of their case, you can choose to locate the left or right earbud. If you have AirPods Pro (2nd generation), you can choose the AirPods case itself.
