Airpods on 1 iPhone and 2 iPads

Submitted by egomaster t3_10pw37c in iphone

Dear all,

I got an Iphone always with me + an iPad 12.9" that I use at work + an iPad mini that I use while I'm on the go (commuters, etc..) or at home.

At the moment I use 3 different bluetooth earbuds: one for each device. It's a pain!

Would a pair of Airpods be useful in my case?

Do they connect smoothly from a device to another? or should I always disconnect from one device and pair with the other one?

Thanks

Assuming you're using same iCloud account on same devices then it can connect automatically when you pick up the device (when they're in your ears) when you enable that feature it's there under AirPods settings. Also, you don't have to disconnect a device to pair with another.

Hey. A few years back Apple introduced a feature called “Automatic Switching” if all the devices are on the same iCloud account, when you’re done using iPhones and pick an iPad, it should switch automatically. Even if it doesn’t work, you don’t need to disconnect AirPods from iPhone to connect to iPad. While AirPods are connected to iPhones Just go to Control Centre on iPad, tap and hold Bluetooth so a list of available devices shows up. Then choose AirPods. They will connect to iPad and disconnect from iPhones. I do this all the time between my Mac and iPhone.
