<\/a><\/figure>\nWhen you switch to Transparency mode<\/span>, you’ll be able to hear some of the sounds in your environment, but also still hear the audio playing in your AirPods Pro, which is something you’d use when walking along busy streets so you can hear the traffic, or in an airport when you need to listen for gate changes, for example.\u00a0<\/p>\nYou can switch to Transparency mode with a long press on the AirPods’ buttons or by using the toggle in Control Center.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Find My AirPods Pro 2 case<\/h2>\n<\/span><\/p>\nApple made the AirPods Pro 2 case available to locate with precision tracking in the Find My app.<\/p>\n
<\/span>One of the most welcome features to the second-generation AirPods Pro is the ability to use Find My and precisely locate a lost AirPods Pro case. Open the Find My app on your iPhone and tap on the Devices<\/strong> tab. Tap on your AirPods Pro in the list to see its location on a map. If you’re within 30-feet or so of the case, press the Find Nearby<\/strong> button. Then follow the prompts onscreen to be guided to it.<\/p>\nSpatial Audio is an impressive experience<\/h2>\n Spatial audio<\/span> provides an immersive surround sound experience, delivering 360-degree soundscape that adjusts to your movement. The experience is relatively new, and is available on the AirPods Pro (along with the recent addition of Dolby Atmos for Apple Music) — it’s just a matter of enabling the feature in your settings.<\/p>\nTurn on Spatial Audio by going to\u00a0Settings<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0Bluetooth<\/strong>\u00a0 tap the “i” next to your AirPods Pro and then slide the switch next to\u00a0Spatial Audio<\/strong>\u00a0to the On position. You can then listen to a demo to see how the feature works by selecting\u00a0See Hear How It Works<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/span><\/p>\nYou can toggle Spatial Audio in the same spot you control ANC.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/span>Now, whenever you are watching a video in an app like Apple TV and using your AirPods Pro, you should hear the audio in surround sound, moving around you as things happen on screen or as you move your head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you have the AirPods Pro 2, you can personalize Spatial Audio using the TrueDepth camera on your iPhone. The first time you put your AirPods Pro in, you will be guided on setting up Personalized Spatial Audio, a custom profile based on your head’s geometry. The profile syncs across your devices \u2014 thanks iCloud! You can also find the feature in the Settings app under Bluetooth. Choose your AirPods Pro and tap the Information<\/strong> button. Then scroll down to Personalized Spatial Audio.<\/p>\nUse your Apple Watch to control AirPods Pro<\/h2>\n<\/span><\/p>\nEven your Apple Watch can help you change modes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/span>If you have an Apple Watch<\/span>, you can tap on the AirPlay icon in the Now Playing app to switch between noise cancellation and transparency modes whenever your AirPods Pro are in use.<\/p>\nAirPods Pro case attachments<\/h2>\n<\/span><\/p>\nThe AirPods Pro 2 case is officially easier to attach to things than Apple’s AirTags.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Yep, the AirPods Pro 2 case has a lanyard loop on the right side. You can attach the case to a backpack, handbag, keys, etc.<\/p>\n
Use your Mac to control AirPods Pro<\/h2>\n<\/span><\/p>\nMacOS Big Sur added a dedicated AirPods control that appears when your wireless earbuds are connected to your Mac.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/span>When using your AirPods Pro with your Mac, you can switch between noise cancellation and transparency mode without having to squeeze your AirPods Pro. On your Mac, you’ll see an AirPods icon when your earbuds are successfully connected to your computer. Click on it, then change the mode.<\/p>\n
Get the right fit by switching tips<\/h2>\n Included in the box with your AirPods Pro 2 are three additional sizes of ear tips; the medium size comes preinstalled. Try those out first, and if they feel uncomfortable, you can swap out for a different size. The original AirPods Pro lacked the XS tips. There’s no trick to getting the tip off of each AirPod, just pull to slide it off and push to fit another pair on. It may feel like you’re going to rip it, but from the few swaps I’ve done, they eventually come off.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/span><\/p>\nThe Ear Tip Fit Test will tell you if you’re using the right size ear tips.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/span>Do the Ear Tip Fit Test to find the best fit<\/h2>\n If you dive into the AirPods Pro settings, you can do the Ear Tip Fit Test (try saying that out loud a few times). The test will play some sounds using the AirPods’ microphones and then tell you if the ear tips you have installed are the right size for your ears.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To run the test, open the Settings app on your iPhone, select Bluetooth and tap on the “i” next to the name of your AirPods Pro. Select Ear Tip Fit Test, and then follow the prompts.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I’ve run the test with both medium and small ear tips, and both passed. So don’t feel locked into the first ear tips you test with; there may be another size that works and feels more comfortable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also works with MagSafe chargers, it just won’t magnetically stick to the charger like an iPhone 12 or 13 does. Place the case on the pad with the small light facing up to start charging it. The case’s light will light up when it’s first placed on the pad, letting you know it’s charging. However, it will eventually time out and turn off. Tap on the case to check the charge status of the case (green means it’s fully charged).<\/p>\n
