Hey guys
Bought the airpods pro on the weekend but having trouble figuring out how to turn on the "off" mode i.e.neither anc nor transparency.
I can see on ios there's the off option which is the normal mode. Right now if I put it on transparency in the gym I can barely hear my music.
Does anyone how this works on android!? Thanks
Huh? But I don't want to go into those 2 modes…
From a quick read here it seems you can set the left and right to different actions from an ios device. ie set one to transparency, the other to simple turn off.
I think that setting then remains, even on android. (like the originals)
btw how are the pros with an android device?
"If you'd like to add the third option to turn off both noise cancelling and transparency mode with a long press, go to Settings > Bluetooth on your iPhone and pressing the encircled “i” next to the listing for your AirPods Pro"
Damn.. Looks like android is missing out on the 3rd option :/
I find the airpods pro music volume is a bit soft. I'm planning to pop by apple store to check it out this weekend. Other than this, it's great.
Otherwise
Borrow a friends iphone, set it up there, and reconnect to android. Might work.
for me pros have been good on android, an app like airbattery or assistant trigger helps add back the battery status and in ear detection for a couple of dollars. However, max volume is lower compared to what it is on apple's own devices (tested on both oneplus 6t and galaxy s7, seemed a little better on pixel 2). Not sure if this a software problem. Similar problems with original airpods were easily resolved, but the same stuff isnt working in this case.
Other than that the experience is pretty awesome!
Can confirm that using an iphone to set up the press and hold action to cycle between all 3 modes instead of just anc and transparency allows for switching using this gesture on android. Maybe you can borrow a friend's iphone to do this?
I will say though that the media volume is significantly lower on my android (Oneplus 6t) as compared to my friends iphone, maybe about 75% of max. It would be a shame if I have to return them because of this, in all other respects they are awesome!
Awesome thank you. So whatever u set up using iPhone will be memorised when moved to android?
Yes omg I thought I'm the only one. The volume really sucks :/
Setup in iOS then use in Android as normal. I had ANC/Transparency on one and ANC/Off on the other.
If your Android supports Bluetooth 5.0, make sure you have Media Volume Sync on, you can find it in Bluetooth Advance settings
Mine are just as loud on my z flip3 as my iPhone 13 pm. Ps mine have two modes but will try setting three choices on iPhone which seems to be within the headphone itself.
Press the stem, it works as per normal.
