I use AirPods Pro but an Android phone. My girlfriend and friends we hung out with would complain about these, so I eventually found a way to turn off "Find my device" on the AirPods by connecting them to my iPad. I now can't track them but also people aren't mad at me for "tracking" them.
- kstrauser 2y agoHuh, good point that I hadn’t considered.
- beeboobaa3 2y agoInteresting. I've had Apple users recommend AirPods to me before, but I don't own any Apple devices so I already had a feeling it wouldn't work out. Would be insane if they would constantly be generating alerts on others their iPhones.
- rsstack 2y agoI think if you use them out of the box, they won't generate the alerts. If I understand Apple's data model correctly, once I paired them to my iPad for the first time, they were enrolled to my iCloud account, and then the tracking system was enabled.
- beeboobaa3 2y agoSo I'm screwed if an iPhone user ever pairs with my headphones, i.e. when I lend them to them?
- rsstack 2y agoEw, why would you lend in-ear headphones to anyone?
- beeboobaa3 2y agoJust wondering if I understand the Apple ecosystem correctly.
