AnswerYes, they are sweat proof, and unofficially waterproof, so they may survive a washing machine. I wouldn't try this on purpose, however.

They look like they could easily come loose and get lost or broken. Have you made some sort of ear hugging attachment to keep them secured during use?

So each pod has a microphone. If you remove one from your ear and place it on a table, will both microphones still work?
If not, is there a way of making the pod think it is still in an ear to continue working?
I'm wondering if these would work in an interview situation for broadcast where each person has a wireless microphone to speak into which can be recorded by the video camera or voice memo app. -
Not connect to my phone properly, every time I have to reset and reconnect
I found that the connection between my phone and the ear pod is really poor. Every time I switched on the Bluetooth and the ear pod cannot be connected. Last few times I press the pod case button to reset then it connected again but today I tried lots of time including reset they pod and restart the phone. Still not working. So hope someone can help me....

Answer
AirPods have a custom wireless chip designed by Apple, called the W1 chip. This custom chip should make the AirPods a lot more reliable than traditional bluetooth headphones.

Answer
I think this largely depends on the shape of your ears. I have been wearing my AirPods to the gym for the past week and haven't had any issues with them falling out but I have heard others say that they easily fall out of their ears. I think that if you find that the EarPods work well for your ears, you shouldn't have any problem with the AirPods, especially because they don't have the wire to add additional weight compared to the EarPods. Hope that helps!

Can you access Siri with a double tap while wearing ski gloves?
- Asked by Robert N from Lake Havasu City
- 29/03/2017
- Flag as inappropriate (Can you access Siri with a double tap while wearing ski gloves?)
AnswerYes.
The double-tap is read by the AirPod’s accelerometer, so it’s the physical motion of the tapping it recognizes, not the contact of your skin.- Answered by Rob M from Pacifica
