Pairing the Powerbeats Pro with your iPhone takes two seconds — literally. Unlock your phone and open the charging case. An animation will show up on your phone; tap Connect<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

This same process will also work on an iPad or iPod Touch ($176 at Walmart<\/a>)<\/span> running the latest version of iOS<\/span>. As with Apple’s AirPods, the initial pairing of the Powerbeats Pro will sync across all Apple devices using your iCloud account. So that two-second process just paired it with your iPhone, Mac, iPad and Apple Watch ($385 at Amazon<\/a>)<\/span>. <\/p>\n

\t \tPair with an Android phone <\/h2>\n

Of course, you can still use the Powerbeats Pro with a non-Apple device. If you haven’t already paired the earbuds to another device, open the case next to your Android phone and go into the Bluetooth settings menu on your phone. <\/p>\n

If you have paired the earbuds with another device already, place both earbuds in the case and then hold in the button near the front of the case until the status light begins blinking white. <\/p>\n

\t \t‘Hey, Siri’ <\/h2>\n

Thanks to Apple’s H1 chip that’s used in the Powerbeats Pro, the earbuds support the “Hey, Siri” wake command out of the box. Whenever you’re using the earbuds, just say “Hey, Siri” followed by a command to play music, check messages, or ask Siri questions. You don’t have to wait for Siri to respond after the initial wake phrase — just keep talking. <\/p>\n

\t \tTurn off Automatic Ear Detection <\/h2>\n

If you’re not a fan of auto-play or auto-pause, you can disable it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Powerbeats Pro will automatically detect when they are put in or taken out of your ears. If you’d rather not have audio pause or start automatically, you can disable it. <\/p>\n

While using the Powerbeats Pro, open the Settings app on any iOS device and select Bluetooth. Tap on the “i” next to the Powerbeats Pro name toggle Automatic Ear Detection to the Off<\/em> position. <\/p>\n

\t \tRename your Beats <\/h2>\n

If you want to personalize the name used in Bluetooth menus for your Powerbeats Pro, you can do that in the same Bluetooth settings. On any iOS device go to Settings<\/strong> Bluetooth<\/strong> tap the “i” next to the Powerbeats Pro name Name<\/strong>. Type in your custom name and exit the settings app. <\/p>\n

\t \tPhysical controls <\/h2>\n

Both earbuds have volume controls as well as a button that can trigger Siri and control media playback. The Beats logo is a multifunction button, with various presses triggering different controls. Here are the actions we’ve discovered so far: <\/p>\n

    \n
  • Long press: Triggers Siri<\/li>\n
  • Single press: Play\/Pause<\/li>\n
  • Double press: Skip track<\/li>\n
  • Triple press: Go back one track<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    And yes, the physical controls even work on non-Apple devices.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
